Imagine loudly proclaiming how cypherpunk you are but then being so centralized that the entire dev team can quit and work on a new project that isn’t allowed to use the same name because of trademarks.

MONK @defi_monk · 2026-01-08T10:09:32+00:00

The $ZEC to $XMR rotation might be beginning. Interesting that dev disputes can nuke a privacy coin.

jake @buysomexmr · 2026-01-08T17:43:50+00:00

$XMR is the only token that could ever flip Bitcoin. I’ll never change my stance on that.

The entire core dev team behind Zcash $ZEC resigned. All at once. Bullish for $XMR

It's looking like privacy coins are BACK! @grayscale 's recent research put privacy tokens at the forefront of crypto gainers in late 2025. Tokens like... $ZEC $BAT $XMR $DASH $BDX ... all outperformed. But the question remains... Will the privacy meta continue into 2026?

Crypto Seth @seth_fin · 2026-01-08T12:24:59+00:00

Told you to buy $XMR at the bottom breakout. Now that ZEC dev team resigns. You will see privacy liquidity rotate into Monero. NFA DYOR
