Privacy protection in the cryptocurrency space seems unlikely to fade away. From 2023 to 2024, and into 2025, the concept of privacy has consistently been a market focus. This trend extends into 2026, with the privacy sector still being highly anticipated.



Why do privacy coins continue to attract attention? The core reasons are changes in the regulatory environment and users' strong demand for asset privacy. ZEC (Zcash), as a representative privacy coin, maintains competitiveness through its shielded address mechanism. Meanwhile, XMR (Monero) is deeply rooted among privacy seekers due to its mandatory privacy features. Emerging privacy solutions, such as projects like DRGX, are also enriching the ecosystem of this sector.

Privacy is not a fleeting concept but a long-term demand within the Web3 ecosystem. Whether for institutions or individual users, the need for on-chain privacy is increasing. This indicates that privacy coins and privacy solutions still have room for development.

Haha, privacy coins are really always the favorites... But to be honest, XMR's mandatory privacy sometimes becomes a nightmare for exchanges, right?

Privacy... to put it simply, it's just the old money folks not wanting everyone on the chain to see their LP yields, haha. ZEC's shielded address mechanism is quite sophisticated, but true wanderers still prefer to mix with XMR. Enforced privacy is the core principle of market making.

Is this round of privacy coins about to take off again? I think so, but keep a close eye on regulatory developments, and don't get cut again.

Privacy coins really need to stay popular this time, or how can we justify the days when they were delisted by exchanges?

Privacy coins are indeed a complex area, but honestly, with exchanges cracking down more and more, are ZEC and those really that useful?
