Zcash Smashes Through $40 Barrier—Privacy Coin’s Bull Run Ignites

Zcash just pulled off a rare feat—busting past the stubborn $40 resistance level like it was a regulatory loophole. Traders are now eyeing this as the breakout moment privacy maximalists have been waiting for.

Why it matters: In a market obsessed with transparent ledgers, ZEC’s shielded transactions just got a lot more attractive. The technical breakout suggests institutional players might finally be warming up to anonymity coins—or at least hedging against the next ’Know Your Customer’ crusade.

The cynical take: Wall Street will pretend to care about financial privacy right up until they can front-run your transactions. Meanwhile, Zcash’s zero-knowledge proofs just schooled every ’anonymous’ CBDC prototype.
