#zec Why did it surge? Understand it in 3 minutes
What everyone fears the most now is "being targeted"
The whole world is monitoring what you do with your wallet; with BTC, you can immediately see who you transferred to. ZEC is different; it uses black technology (zk-SNARK) to hide all three key elements of a transfer: who sent it? Who received it? How much was transferred? Others can't see anything at all.
Now 30% of ZEC is hiding in the "privacy pool" (it was only a few % last year), and people are voting with their feet; the demand for privacy is exploding!
ZEC is the "most compliant" privacy coin
Monero (XMR) has been delisted by many exchanges, while ZEC has been cleared by U.S. regulators, making it safe for institutions to buy.
Grayscale just applied for a ZEC spot ETF; if approved, big funds will rush in! France's second-largest bank has also listed ZEC, allowing 2 million people to buy directly.
Supply is decreasing while demand is increasing
It just halved this November (like BTC, it cuts its production in half every 4 years)
There are only 21 million coins in total, which is even scarcer than BTC.
Big whales are hoarding like crazy, and there are hardly any sellers.
The technology is getting easier to use
The new wallet is super smooth, transfer fees are as low as a few dimes, and with one click on your phone, you can make a completely private transfer that ordinary people can easily use.
The whole world is looking for a coin that can truly hide money; ZEC is now the only choice that is safe, compliant, and easy to use.
Big funds + retail investors + halving + essential privacy needs are all stacking up, so it must go up!
Short-term target is 480, mid-term target is 600, and by the end of the year, many are shouting for it to hit 700.
The technical pattern is also looking very good, with a double bottom; it has already broken through the trendline, and we are waiting for a pullback confirmation, which is an opportunity.
Should you get on board? It's up to you; anyway, I feel like this wave of privacy-themed play is just getting started.
