Zcash privacy starts with moving $ZEC into the shielded pool Mert walks through the practical side of using Zcash for privacy rather than simply holding $ZEC for price exposure. "I think the easiest way is on your mobile phone, you download the wallet called Zashi" "It does a swap for you, and then it shields your $ZEC for you as well" "It's literally an internet Swiss bank account, except you're storing Zcash instead" With Zashi, users can swap from assets across Solana, Ethereum or Bitcoin directly into $ZEC. The wallet then handles the shielding process and moves that $ZEC into the shielded pool. That distinction matters because Zcash 🛡️ supports both transparent transactions and shielded transactions. The shielded pool provides the privacy properties mert considers central to the network. His simplest description of the experience: a Swiss vault in your pocket.

Zcash is the kind of trade Ansem looks for before attention catches up Ansem’s Zcash thesis comes down to technology, people and attention. “Zcash has a lot of the same features as Bitcoin, but it’s quantum-resistant and it’s private.” “When a ton of smart people work on a really hard technological problem, solve it, and the only thing missing is attention, those are typically the best trades.” “Zcash should benefit from Bitcoin doing well, and it should be at a much higher ratio to Bitcoin than it currently is.” ZEC shares much of Bitcoin’s monetary DNA while adding privacy and stronger preparation for quantum risk. Ansem also points to the overlap between early Bitcoin believers and people who recognized Zcash early. The trade becomes especially interesting when strong technical work already exists while market attention still lags behind it. That gap between fundamentals and attention is exactly the type of asymmetry Ansem looks for. He also views $ZEC through its relationship with Bitcoin. A stronger BTC should create a favorable backdrop for Zcash, while Ansem believes the ZEC/BTC ratio still has significant room to re-rate higher. The technology is built. The smart money is paying attention. Ansem is betting the ZEC/BTC ratio eventually catches up. w/ Ansem 🐂🀄️, mert, Zcash 🛡️

This was one of the clearest points from our conversation with simo: BTC is a massive asset class, yet only about 1.2% of total BTC is in DeFi today. Meanwhile, about 34% of WBTC supply is already deposited in Aave. That tells you something important: --> Borrow demand already exists. What TBVs will unlock is a path for native BTC to participate in those credit markets without leaving the Bitcoin network. More clips soon 👀

Mert thinks Zcash still looks undervalued even after a major repricing “A 10x for Zcash would be 70 billion, which would mean 4,000” “If you look at the market cap of what’s above it and how small it is, I think it’s pretty undervalued” “Nobody knows where that money came from, but you just paid for it on a different chain in private” His valuation case for Zcash goes beyond the ZEC/BTC ratio. At roughly $6 - 7B mcap in his example, a 10x would still put Zcash around $70B, a valuation he considers reasonable relative to larger crypto assets. mert also points to utility as part of that thesis. A user could hold funds privately in Zcash, then pay someone who only accepts USDC on Solana, with the conversion and settlement happening across chains while Zcash provides the privacy layer. That makes Zcash 🛡️ potentially composable with the broader crypto economy rather than operating as an isolated privacy network. w/ mert, MR SHIFT 🦁

💡 Most people still just HODL their Bitcoin and wait for the next pump. But what if your BTC could actually work for you instead of just sitting idle? That is where BOB comes in. BOB is a hybrid chain that takes Bitcoin's security and plugs it into Ethereum's flexibility. With BitVM and zkStack you get to use native BTC directly, no wrapped tokens or shady shortcuts. On BOB your BTC can finally move: 👉 Stake and earn yield 👉 Borrow stables when you need liquidity 👉 Trade across ETH, SOL, SUI without friction 👉 Pay instantly with BTC, no gas headaches And for builders it is a full EVM environment with account abstraction, zero gas fees and backed by Bitcoin liquidity. This is not just an experiment. BOB is becoming the real gateway for Bitcoin DeFi. Your BTC is no longer passive digital gold, it is becoming the fuel for the next wave of on-chain finance. 🚀 GBOB fam, the future is being built right now.
