Let's make a deal, Government. You get to do all the surveillance you want, we won't complain. But in exchange you must whitelist homomorphic encryption crypto like DERO (which is 100% anonymous & where no backdoors are possible). You catch terrorists/criminals & we people still have some privacy
My case for a FULLY anonymous coin and smart contract platform: why I believe the destigmatization of anonymity is inevitable, privacy coins will stop being a “shady” niche and the only 100% anonymous L1 out there DERO is primed to outperform. (DERO vs Monero, ZEC, Secret, Eth, ADA also discussed)

Who's that? Also, this chart is so funny, do the same for ZEC or 99% of the coins inexistance for that matter.
BTC - 40% ETH - 20% ZEC - 10% DOGE - 10% SHIBA - 10% Other alts - 10%
I would consider BCH, XMR, and ZEC as good candidates, each with their own strengths and weaknesses but viable decentralized alternatives to fiat currencies. BTC has clearly failed & ETH is something else entirely.
Sometimes. I mostly just look at the pairs to help me time usd trades so like if ethbtc looks good and btc looks good I may take an ETHUSD long. Some coins like LTC, ZEC, and even BCH are hostoricaly quite responsive to breakouts on the btc pair. You can also look at Alt/eth pairs for other level 1s or eth ecosystem stuff like gen 1 defi
yes. Current coin supported are: BTC, XMR, ZEC, LTC, BCH, DASH, Doge, and Wownero (though I cant get the wownero stagenet working, so its "offline" when run in testnet mode)
I think you are confusing Zcash with Monero, but nobody knows. There is certainly some intelligence involvement in crypto since at least 2010. But this applies to all coins that have some potential, BTC, ETH, BCH, ZEC and as well XMR. The beauty of it is that it is all open source so we can see what code we run.
Privacy is more of a spectrum in crypto. Public chains like Ethereum and Bitcoin are often seen as not private because their transactions are all out there on the public ledger, and you can even track them using tools like Chainalysis. True anonymity comes when you use XMR, ZEC or protocols like Railgun which prevents your crypto from being monitored.
Looking forward to my crusty ole Dino bag of ZEC popping hard next Bull!
tldr; Brave, Electric Coin Co., and Filecoin Foundation have announced a partnership to bring new privacy tools to Web3. Brave will integrate the Zcash protocol into its built-in crypto wallet, allowing users to securely store, send, and receive ZEC alongside other cryptocurrencies. The partnership also includes plans to develop a new privacy-based feature in the Brave browser that will offer private messages and media transmission via the Zcash protocol. The Filecoin Foundation will provide secure storage for the encrypted content using the InterPlanetary File System (IPFS). This partnership aims to enhance privacy and user control in Web3 activities. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article. As always, DYOR.
I’ve managed to sell the top before, last bullrun I sold ZEC @300 and the top was 303 I believe? It felt like the right time and got lucky with the timing.
Before ETH killers it was “BTC Killers” BCH, DECRED, BSV, LTC, DASH, ZEC, NANO +100 more. Now look today, basically all of these coins are dead, some like LTC have hung on but still down 80%+ against BTC. New coins don’t even brand themselves as BTC killers anymore. Bitcoin ossified at the top to the point its unchallenged by incumbents. ETH killers are still around and in the top 10. They are becoming less common though and it seems like most new coins in that area are moving to become ETH L2s. I don’t think ETH is where Bitcoin is yet, competitors will keep trying for a bit longer. Bitcoin is really the only coin right now that is so dominant it’s not even challenged any longer but ETH is on the path to getting there too. However, ETH is far more complicated in it’s scope and I don’t believe it could ever hold it’s niche as dominantly as BTC.
Well my problem tokens/heavy hitters are currently : \-83.59% Apecoin average of $6.96 \-73.17% Avalanche average of $34.61 \-60.31% Sushi average of $1.47 \-45.1% Shiba Inu average of $0.00001311 Some smaller but insane loss % are : \-87.96% Near average of $8.91 \-86.1% GMT average of $1.04 \-82.98% ALGO average of $0.528500 \-74.76% UOS average of $0.528356 \-70.38% SOL average of $60.60 \-69.73% ZEC average of $82.68
ZEC is a great value buy right now.
Buying ZEC @100 and selling at the top of $300
ZEC, I don’t remember the exact number but I managed to sell at the top during the last bull run and managed to make up for most of my loses from dumb trading moves I had made.
ZEC has a big upside IMO
It's gotta be XMR for me. I have little experience with ZEC but ultimately if the IRS is interested and offering bounties on XMR. Then I'm interested in knowing my privacy is actually private with XMR.
Wow, you're right, I apologize. The tweet is by "K A L E O @CryptoKaleo" who tweeted in January 2023: "My conservative price targets for 2023: Bitcoin: $420,069 ETH: $69,420 XRP: $589 ZEC: 7 BTC FTT: $1,000 UST: $1.04 USDT: $0.13 4:25 PM · Jan 1, 2023 · 1.6M Views" This guy is a hopium kingpin.
Gonna have to go with ZEC because I lost all my XMR in a boating accident
Monero. I never hear about boating accidents from ZEC users.
I'm definitely a XMR guy. Although I have nothing against ZEC. Probably mostly habit.
>There is a roadmap for ZEC to go proof-of-stake. Developments like this can be maintained by a coin with a team behind it. That is a pretty big negative imo. Having centralization tendencies baked in already and then doubling down via the PoS route.
Monero, but there's some nuance. ZEC has objectively superior privacy, but its crippled because: * It has a literal CEO. * It has a dev tax, which is an unforgivably centralizing force in a cryptocurrency. * It puts its technology under anticompetitive licences to prevent other currencies from "stealing" research, which IMO is against the spirit of crypto. * Their goal it to be compliant with surveillance, which is not compatible with being privacy-first. So despite ZEC's cool tech, I still have to go with monero every time.
>, however, this can be a positive for ZEC in having a present team to keep up with the crypto trends, as in… Dont think thats very PRO for ZEC, if im using privacy coin im gonna use one thats less centralized. >Even having Monero can raise questions about your intentions. How can you know if i have monero? \*wink wink*
Monero is way beyond ZEC - both in tech, but more importantly adoption. There's a plethora of services revolving around Monero meant to increase the privacy and anonymity of Monero. ZEC also has the issue of having a corporate like structure heading the project, leading it to be susceptible to manipulation and makes it easy to legally go after the project.
Privacy is another narrative that's holding fast. It's the future, and it's wise to buy into it early. ZEC, RAIL, and AZERO are a few I believe will have a good run.
Yup, been here since 2017 when I first started mining ZEC. I've been riding the wave through almost two full cycles now.
Yeah but you can’t really ‘add’ privacy to a blockchain with a transparent base layer. Monero is *always* anonymous. No mixers, and no ‘optional’ privacy like ZEC.
Yes he was massively short BCH and massively long ZEC.
tldr; Dino coins, older tokens in the cryptocurrency market, have been rallying as traders anticipate the next bull market. Bitcoin Cash (BCH) and Litecoin (LTC) have seen significant price increases, with BCH surging by 212% in the past ten days and LTC increasing by 55% since June 15. Ethereum (ETH) has also experienced a 19.6% rally. The upcoming halving of Litecoin's block reward and the support of these tokens by the recently launched EDX exchange have contributed to their price increases. Other dino coins that have rallied include Bitcoin SV (BSV), Stellar (XLM), Zcash (ZEC), and Ethereum Classic (ETC). The total cryptocurrency market capitalization has also risen alongside Bitcoin and dino coins. Traders are aware of the correlation between dino coins and altcoins, and are planning accordingly. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

tldr; Cryptocurrency exchange Binance has reversed its decision to delist privacy coins in Europe, citing revised operations to comply with local regulations. The exchange had initially planned to delist 12 privacy tokens for users in France, Italy, Spain and Poland, including Decred, Dash, ZEC, Horizen, PIVX, Navcoin, Secret, Verge, Firo, Beam, XMR and MobileCoin. However, Binance has since retracted the decision, with various tokens taking to Twitter to reassure community members. The move comes as the EU has been ironing out its standards for digital assets with its new Markets in Crypto-Assets regulations. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

Show “your friend” ZEC/BTC chart.
Because almost all the crypto is indeed a piece of shit, undergoing hard KYC censorship over transparent blockchains or encountering the strong centralisation of it is a PoS coin like Ethereum. Because there is no “smart” in Ethereum smart contacts. They can’t be distinguished from a code executed on a centralised (but maybe replicated) database. And also Ethereum was hardly premined and spread among the earlier founders. It is a security token, subject to SEC regulation. Bitcoin is just a first f&cking failed crypto experiment with a weak PoW that is not resistant to ASICs (and here there is centralisation too), non-adaptive block size and insane huge transaction fees. The only cryptocurrency remain is a privacy coin. Currently, mostly Monero. You have to popularise it amid your buddies, furthermore, total Monero emission will be less than Bitcoin one till year 2040, despite tail emission (that is needed for economics to grow harmonically). Google about Monero, study it in depth, and tell all your friends, there is almost the only crypto. ZEC with Halo2 (without trusted setup) is exciting brand new experiment. But the only production grade cryptocurrency is Monero. Tell your merchants to accept it directly. Sell the services and goods through Monero. Fight against regulators: your own finances is nobody’s business!!!
Good for you that Barry Silbert's paid shills in Coindesk (DCG) didn't get to you. At one point he controlled at least 1:10 of ZEC supply.
DCG/Genesis liquidation. Barry the main investor in ZEC had to get rid of coins that's why it fell from pumped/manipulated parity with Monero to 1:5.
#I do.It's an open source project by NSA and CIA. * Dev tax * Trusted setup * Involvement of secret agencies (Peter Todd, Snowden) * Optional privacy doesn't work * IP addresses are not protected * (Newer) cryptographic assumptions are not yet battle tested > According to ZEC founder Zooko: "And by the way, I think we can successfully make Zcash too traceable for criminals like WannaCry, but still completely private & fungible. " https://twitter.com/zooko/status/863202798883577856
Well there isn't really anything drawing attention to it apart from people mentioning it. I got into crypto in 2020 and I've barely heard about ZEC outside of reddit and still, it barely gets mentioned here anyway.
Monero is overshadowing ZEC.
I feel like in the case of privacy coins like ZEC and Monero, there isn't really a need for very many of them. Monero does its jo, and does its job well so most people just use it.
These charts look very close. History may not always repeat but it rhymes; crack kills but so does hopium - ZEC enters the market with major hype at $1,600+ in late 2016. One of Vitalik's favorite projects. Currently $28 - IOTA enters the market with major hype at $0.70 in mid 2017. Currently $0.17 - ALGO enters the market with hyped tech at $3.00+ in 2019. Currently $0.12
Tether has Tron propped up. I don’t own any trx, but if I did I would probably hold onto it. From this list Id dump RVN, DASH, ZEC, DGB, SHIB and probably BNB at this point. Convert it all into BTC.
I'm on board now. I trust BCH more than stablecoins. BCH is less volatile AND follows BTC value. Keeps my cash liquid and available. This subs hates BCH but if you mosey on other to r/BTC, it's an open topic there. People forget that this is still Bitcoin and it's superior to every other cryptocurrency, except maybe BTC (which is moot). I think this topic is just too advanced for most users to understand and thinks that because BSV is a scam, and ZEC is a scam, BCH also must be a scam? But BCH is following the original code and BTC isn't. So there's that too.
Monero is just too good at what it does. It's incredibly hard to trace. More details from the article... At least four European countries where the delisting will become operational soon: France, Italy, Poland and Spain. It's not just Monero, also: Zcash (ZEC), Dash (DASH), Verge (XVG), Beam (BEAM), Decred (DCR), Secret (SCRT), Horizen (ZEN), MobileCoin (MOB), Navcoin (NAV), Firo (FIRO), and PIVX (PIVX).
ZEC is opt-in privacy, unless I am mistaken. Just like LTC. I wonder why they remove ZEC but not LTC.
"The duality of ZEC" sounds like an indie cyberpunk game where you have philosophical conversations with an AI.
BSV and ZEC are up to more suspicious behaviours. It doesn't really set the bar for the software coming first like miners do for Monero. BTC is treated more like an ATM, and BCH gets treated like shit for remaining a currency.
Well Bitcoin Cash is what Bitcoin was, everyone here fucking hates Bitcoin Cash, absolutely hates BSV, but the primary functionality of what caused Bitcoin to catch on, is no longer used any more. The idea of being a store of value is just another way of saying, useless. It's all speculative value. Hilariously, the only network that Ordinals don't run on is BCH. The r/Bitcoin community devs are who chose. They hate anyone mentioning anything about any other cryptocurrency other than Bitcoin. They are true maximalists that drove away all the original devs that branched off to my BCH>BSV>ZEC because BTC maximalism is as toxic as it gets. The more I look into it, the less I want to invest in BTC. The more you
German climate activists were just arrested and had their collective defense funds confiscated. They should have kept them in a privacy coin. ZCash is the only major coin providing complete security. Is it under valued? It’s debatable. The ZEC communities aren’t healthy and thriving and the transaction tax makes people not want ZEC to succeed. The major risk is that any crypto coin can be copied or forked. The value of the coin is in it’s broad adoption, fungibility with fiat, price stability. So far copies have just been viewed a as optimistic cash grabs, but we’re just one marketing campaign away from a successful zk competitor that doesn’t have a built in tax. Personal sanctions or law enforcement theft are a tail risk for most people with disposable income to significantly invest in a coin. ZEC can easily be used only as a pass through to wash funds, buying followed by selling is price neutral to negative. I can’t come up with any reason ZEC is under valued. Long term the price will probably reflect the holdings of market makers profiting off of breaking custodial chains of less secure coins.
We don't ever walk away. It's just a matter of what you are looking to buy. A good time to pick privacy coins like XMR, RAIL, and ZEC.
I've got a few of them. XMR, RAIL, and ZEC. Always love the utility of privacy in the blockchain.
I use XMR constantly because of the cheap fees and sudo-fast transaction speeds. It’s also very stable for a crypto and you can leverage it without too much worry. Great coin for its use and great tokenomics. XMR is a must in the dark web territory so anyone holding or spending is creating most of the flow right now. Everyone should accept XMR as a substitute to BTC like they do LTC. You don’t see anyone using ZEC anymore.
What a menu?! Of a centralised exchange?! Meanwhile, did you know ZEC Halo2 doesn’t require a trusted setup.
Did you literally read my mind? I’m thinking exactly the same *looks at my sad bags which have NEO, ZEC, DASH inside among other alts that I tried to earn more on*
Got a bag of ZEC, RAIL, and ROSE.
I was mining RVN for a while back somewhere in 2018 or 2019 when I had 36 GPUs chugging away. I think I took some time off mining ZEC to try RVN
The both look good as always. I also use Railgun while I hold ZEC as well.
Congratulations, you're on the right track with your investments. However, it's always wise to diversify your portfolio to reduce risk. The privacy niche in the crypto market is expanding, and there are promising alts like RAIL, ZEC, and SCRT that are worth considering for early investment. These projects have the potential to provide significant returns in the long run.
It's obviously a privacy coin from your hint. The most popular of them now are XMR, RAIL, ZEC, ROSE, and AZERO. It is not yet formed if it is not any of these.
ZEC cause I wanna hideaway...
Buy low caps instead. Privacy coins are safe and would likely have a good run with the whole regulation thing. I bet it's a good narrative. AZERO, RAIL, and ZEC.
BTC and ETH with few altcoins are mainly investment for me, ZEC is for using mainly.
they care about number go up technology. which it takes 3 seconds of looking at ZEC-BTC to see that its technology is inverse number up
XMR uses mixers and decoys. Shielded Zcash uses the strongest encryption. Zcash has no trusted setup anymore. Miners support development. All XMR transactions use smaller anonymity sets than ZEC.
People that are more at risk of losing their liberty because they may be into something illegal don't incorporate ZEC into their OPSEC. dark markets, ransomware for example. As for partnership hunting and cozying up to TPDB, ZEC is better. ZK-Snark is awesome, but the ZEC bag carries with it other issues already brought up in this thread.
see above. Yes, it is steep and always perplexes me why anyone with the hashpower would choose ZEC over the other few dozen coins without an enforced block reward to third parties
Just be aware because the SEC has particularly made mention of ZEC as potentially a security.
If you're going to post about a coin that no one here has heard about, you should probably include some stuff that legitimizes it a bit. I figured Namada must've been a shitcoin piggybacking on ZEC tech like many shitcoins do, [but I see that Messari has written a report on it](https://messari.io/report/namada-unifying-privacy?utm_medium=organic_social&utm_source=twitter_messaricrypto&utm_campaign=namada_unifying_privacy), so it must be a reasonably legit project. It actually looks an interesting approach and is launching with interoperability between ETH and IBC which is cool and is also working the public goods angle, which is another similarity between this project and CANTO. This actually looks like a possible airdrop to be farmed as well with mainnet launching soon.
anyone talking about ZEC Zcash now that Gainzy is tweeting it again?
tldr; Cybersecurity firm Halborn discovered multiple vulnerabilities in Dogecoin's open-source codebase that could compromise the security of the blockchain network. The vulnerabilities extended to over 280 additional networks, including Litecoin, Zcash and ZEC/USD. The most critical vulnerability pertained to peer-to-peer communications, in which attackers can craft malicious consensus messages and transmit them to individual nodes. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

What I like about it is their active developers and community. I think it is a good competitor to ZEC with privacy in focus. Planning to get some in observable future
Focus on lowcaps with usecases that are relevant in this current market. Personally, privacy and governance tokens such as ZEC,RAIL,MINA and the likes are still pretty cheap and they got potential to stand the test of time.
**May be helpful, I just asked ChatGPT :** **Q: What hashing algorithms do the cryptocurrencies BTC, ETH, XMR & ZEC use?** BTC (Bitcoin) uses the SHA-256 (Secure Hash Algorithm 256-bit) hashing algorithm as its proof-of-work consensus algorithm. This algorithm is used to mine new blocks on the Bitcoin blockchain and secure the network. ETH (Ethereum) currently uses the Ethash algorithm as its proof-of-work consensus algorithm. Ethash is a memory-hard algorithm that is designed to be resistant to ASIC mining, which helps to ensure a more decentralized mining process. XMR (Monero) uses the Cryptonight proof-of-work algorithm, which is a memory-bound hashing algorithm. It is designed to be ASIC-resistant and allows for CPU and GPU mining. ZEC (Zcash) uses the Equihash algorithm as its proof-of-work consensus algorithm. Equihash is a memory-hard algorithm that is designed to be ASIC-resistant and allow for more decentralized mining. **Q: Explain each type.** Sure, I can provide a more detailed explanation of each hashing algorithm used by these cryptocurrencies: BTC (Bitcoin) uses SHA-256 (Secure Hash Algorithm 256-bit), which is a cryptographic hash function that produces a fixed-size output of 256 bits. The SHA-256 algorithm is used as a proof-of-work algorithm in Bitcoin mining, where miners compete to solve a complex mathematical puzzle to add a new block to the blockchain. SHA-256 is a widely-used algorithm and is considered to be secure, with no known vulnerabilities. ETH (Ethereum) currently uses Ethash as its proof-of-work consensus algorithm. Ethash is designed to be ASIC-resistant, which means that it is less vulnerable to specialized mining hardware that can dominate the network. Ethash is a memory-hard algorithm that requires miners to access a large amount of memory in order to solve the cryptographic puzzle. This helps to ensure that mining on the Ethereum network is more decentralized, as it is more difficult for a single miner or group of miners to dominate the network. XMR (Monero) uses the Cryptonight proof-of-work algorithm, which is also designed to be ASIC-resistant. Cryptonight is a memory-bound algorithm that requires miners to access a large amount of memory to solve the puzzle. This is designed to prevent specialized mining hardware from dominating the network and helps to ensure that mining on the Monero network is more decentralized. ZEC (Zcash) uses the Equihash algorithm as its proof-of-work consensus algorithm. Equihash is also designed to be ASIC-resistant and is a memory-hard algorithm that requires miners to access a large amount of memory to solve the puzzle. Like Ethash and Cryptonight, Equihash is designed to help ensure that mining on the Zcash network is more decentralized and less vulnerable to domination by specialized mining hardware. In general, these hashing algorithms are designed to be secure, resistant to attacks, and ensure a decentralized mining process. Might want to fact check!
Hmm i would like to think XMR vs ZEC rivalry is legitimate but I think I am biased
Private crypto refers to cryptocurrencies that are designed to provide greater privacy and anonymity to users, compared to traditional cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, which are more transparent and traceable. Private cryptos use various methods to enhance privacy, such as obscuring transaction data, hiding user identities, and implementing advanced encryption techniques. This makes it more difficult for third parties to track and monitor cryptocurrency transactions. Some examples of private cryptos, Monero (XMR), Zcash (ZEC), and Dash (DASH). These cryptocurrencies are popular among users who value privacy and want to keep their financial transactions confidential. However, it's worth noting that private cryptos can also be used for illicit activities, such as money laundering and tax evasion, which has led to regulatory scrutiny and criticism from some quarters.
> balls of steel holding Probably. But it always seems to me that people who invest in Ripple/XRP live in an alternate reality. For example... > Coinbase added support for XRP (Ripple) on its platform in February 2019. At the time, XRP was the third cryptocurrency to be listed on Coinbase, after Bitcoin and Ethereum. ..OP clearly remembers XRP being the first crypto after BTC and ETH being added to Coinbase but the reality is that Coinbase was very reluctant to add XRP because they were always afraid of listing what was considered by the SEC to be a security. - Litecoin was added to Coinbase on May 2017 https://www.coinbase.com/blog/coinbase-adds-support-for-litecoin - Bitcoin Cash was added on December 2017 Don't have a link but anyone who was around knows BCH price reached $9,500 on GDAX/Coinbase PRO https://imgur.com/UsQK1Cc - ETC was added to Coinbase on June 2018 https://www.coinbase.com/blog/adding-ethereum-classic-support-to-coinbase - ZRX was added to Coinbase on October 2018 https://www.coinbase.com/blog/zrx-is-launching-on-coinbase-pro - BAT was added to Coinbase on November 2018 https://www.coinbase.com/blog/basic-attention-token-bat-is-launching-on-coinbase-pro - ZEC was added to Coinbase on November 2018 https://www.coinbase.com/blog/zcash-zec-is-launching-on-coinbase-pro
ROSE is cool, I actually have some bags as well, but RAIL & ZEC are my best bet, apart from their unique tech, I think their staking has lots of benefits over others.
GRT has always been a long-term holding for me, but in addition to AI tokens, I think privacy tokens are also worth considering, with the increasing adoption of zk-SNARK tech in the blockchain, tokens such as ZEC, RAIL, and HOPR, among others, offer exciting opportunities for those interested in privacy-focused crypto.
Yea, HOT is a good one, ZEC, RAIL, APT, CAKE. etc.
Ethereum (ETH) is a decentralized blockchain network that allows for the creation of decentralized applications (dApps) and the execution of smart contracts. However, it is true that a small group of companies, known as mining pools, currently control a large portion of the network's hash rate, which is a measure of the computational power being used to secure the network. This centralization of mining power does raise concerns about the potential for a 51% attack, where a group of miners could collude to control the network and potentially reverse transactions. As for the most decentralized and safest cryptocurrencies, Bitcoin (BTC) is often considered the most decentralized and secure, as it has the largest and most decentralized mining network. Other decentralized cryptocurrencies include Litecoin (LTC), Monero (XMR), and Zcash (ZEC). Some of the biggest blockchain technology projects include: *Bitcoin: a decentralized digital currency that allows for peer-to-peer transactions without the need for a central authority. *Ethereum: a decentralized platform that allows for the creation of dApps and the execution of smart contracts. *Ripple (XRP): a digital asset designed for payments and remittances, with a focus on enterprise use cases. *EOS: a decentralized platform for the creation of dApps, with a focus on high performance and scalability. *Cardano (ADA): a decentralized platform for the creation and execution of smart contracts, with a focus on security and sustainability. Each of these projects has its own unique goal, but overall, they aim to create decentralized and trustless systems for various use cases, such as digital currency, smart contracts, and dApps.
Ethereum (ETH) is a decentralized blockchain network that allows for the creation of decentralized applications (dApps) and the execution of smart contracts. However, it is true that a small group of companies, known as mining pools, currently control a large portion of the network's hash rate, which is a measure of the computational power being used to secure the network. This centralization of mining power does raise concerns about the potential for a 51% attack, where a group of miners could collude to control the network and potentially reverse transactions.

ZEC, XMR, LTC, wanna see this list getting longer
Isnt that just Monero/ZEC?? lol
I feel like there might be a big privacy trend next bull run. With all these central bank/gov shitcoins coming out I think coins like XMR, ZEC, SCRT are going to get a lot of attention.
XMR, LTC, DOGE, DASH, NEO, BTC, ZEC. They were developed and taken over by a community/made open source/open source from the get go. There is 0 "promotion" of these coins other than CEXs using them to share their list of tradable coins.
ZEC still exists? Their portfolio looks like a garbage collection from yesteryear.
ETC - Okay this project is trusted by some folks, definitely better than ETHPoW. ZEN - What even is this? BTC - Its weird its not on the first place. ZEC - Okay... ETH - Also weird its not higher. LTC - Also weird its not higher. BCH - Why would anyone hold it when they already have BTC? MANA - WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY?
tldr; Crypto fund provider Grayscale may have to liquidate some of its altcoin trusts to cover Genesis' creditors. This comes after Gemini cofounder Cameron Winklevoss lambasted DCG CEO Barry Silbert over frozen funds. ETC, ZEC, and ZEC could be the most impacted by the liquidation. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article. As always, DYOR.*
These are the ones they are talking about - Basic Attention Token (BAT), Bitcoin Cash (BCH), Chainlink (LINK), Decentraland (MANA), Ethereum Classic (ETC), Litecoin (LTC), Solana (SOL), Stellar Lumens (XLM), and Zcash (ZEC)
