Grayscale states Zcash complements Bitcoin According to Grayscale Research, its thesis is that Zcash ($ZEC) is one of the biggest beneficiaries of the "second-mover advantage" compared with $BTC. $BTC, which has established itself as a sovereign store of value, is facing a need for the zero-knowledge privacy offered by $ZEC as AI-based financial surveillance emerges. Grayscale Research believes Zcash $ZEC has a real shot at capturing Bitcoin $BTC market share.

VanEck CEO Jan van Eck on CNBC: “There’s something else going on within the Bitcoin community that non-crypto people need to know about. And that is: ultimately, VanEck has been around before Bitcoin. We will walk away from Bitcoin if we think the thesis is fundamentally broken. We don’t right now, but you always have to look at the underlying technology and the crypto. What the Bitcoin community has been asking itself is: Is there enough encryption in Bitcoin, because quantum computing is coming? And secondly: Is there enough privacy in Bitcoin? And so a lot of Bitcoin OGs or maxis have been looking at Zcash. Zcash is a token. It’s sort of related to Bitcoin with a lot more privacy. The kind of garbage that we got about Bitcoin four years ago was: ‘It’s used for all bad illicit behavior.’ But now everyone kind of realizes that when you move money around on the Bitcoin blockchain, you can see it. You can see it move from one wallet to another. And a lot of people are looking for more privacy.”

On Bitcoin, Zcash, and Ore In the early days of crypto, countless Bitcoin forks tried to “improve” BTC by tweaking parameters in the protocol (eg Litecoin). None of them became viable non-sovereign SoV assets, in part because they lacked any true structural advantages. Zcash, however, integrated privacy directly into the L1 protocol. Whether it’s better to shield txns at a higher layer is debatable, but to me, that’s a genuine structural edge that Bitcoin doesn’t have. Ore is the first potential SoV asset that I’ve seen that has multiple structural advantages in that the system generates yield for long term holders and it is natively created on Solana. The ORE protocol and asset being native to Solana means that it inherits all current/future Solana upgrades around performance, privacy layers, and DeFi composability. Since Ore is not an L1 itself, it does’t need to be involved in improving networking, execution, consensus, etc. So far, I have yet to see a viable path for wrapped assets to trustlessly (and without significant friction/fragmentation) become embedded in the Solana eco like native assets/programs. Obviously of the 3, Ore is by far the most experimental. But its advantages are really interesting and I believe it strengthens Solana itself to have a native, non-sovereign SoV asset at the core of its DeFi ecosystem. Regardless, Bitcoin will continue to become embedded in the financial system and remain top dog. But I believe it has merely opened the door. BTC will not be the only SoV asset to reach escape velocity in the 21st century.

Jack Mallers’ appearance on Bloomberg is NO EXAGGERATION one of the sharpest 9-minute Bitcoin segments you’ll find this year. Here’s what stuck with me: – Performance in dollars is a distraction. “The only metric that matters: Bitcoin per share.” – Scarcity isn’t a narrative device. If you want more Bitcoin, you PAY UP. – Altcoins? Tech stocks at best. Bitcoin is gunning for the world’s $400T store of value market. – “I’ll never own another asset outside of Bitcoin.” Not diversification but CONVICTION. – The real use case: You create value, you want to keep it. Bitcoin is the answer. Mallers doesn’t hype. He just points at the inevitable.

A lot of the core believers who were early to Bitcoin were also early to Zcash" "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"

Ryan Watkins (Ryan Watkins) says zcash:native the asset is a meme, and that privacy is a feature that can live on any chain: "For me, privacy is a feature. The technical stack Zcash built can be implemented on any blockchain. And the actual asset, ZEC, I think, is a meme." "You can say the same about Bitcoin, that it's a meme." "The difference is Bitcoin is the first and has all the liquidity. The reason we'd need another Bitcoin just doesn't make sense to me." "It's become an institutional meme." "I don't think many holders really care about the original cypherpunk values, or use it as private Bitcoin."
