After all, the question that remains is whether Privacy-Focused Cryptocurrencies May Maintain Momentum. While zach’s privacy technology and the increase in the use of the Shielded Pool are positive signs, the growth seems driven, in part, by speculation and the influence of opinion leaders in networks like X. Bruno Vaccotti, founder of the Paraguayan Chamber of Digital Asset Mining, told BitcoinDynamic about this. He warns that cryptocurrencies, including those like zcash, often suffer from their reliance on narratives and strategic partnerships that do not withstand market pressure. «On green days, everything is ‘innovation’; on red days, everything is ‘manipulation’, according to the interests of the parties,» he points out.
