· 2026-01-13T06:03:58+00:00The recent performance of $XMR has indeed been impressive, which in turn highlights just how severely undervalued ZEC currently is. When people finally realize that $ZEC has a more advanced privacy solution, what will happen?
· 2026-01-13T15:25:12+00:00$ZEC / Zcash Swept liquidity above $400 again, then continued its flush. Nasty candle. Now sitting at $385 testing local support zone which has held multiple times since the lows. Lose it and price likely sweeps down toward $360 to clean out longs. Trend bearish across all

· 2026-01-13T14:58:14+00:00“ $XMR is better than $ZEC because criminals use it” That’s because criminals don’t trust each other to be smart enough not to mess up Despite ZEC having better privacy properties if shielded addresses are used properly

· 2026-01-13T23:50:03+00:00Everything is running except for Zcash. But what happens when everything stops running? That’s why Zcash will be the safe haven asset when everything crashes. $zec $cyph
· 2026-01-13T13:01:11+00:00we will see ping pong style giga luxury pumps all year between $ZEC and $XMR. One will turbo pump and then the other, back and forth over and over again. They are both going to go significantly higher.
· 2026-01-13T03:47:04+00:00$ZEC / Zcash Keeps rejecting $410-$420, now back testing local support at $395.
