⚡ PRIVACY IS LEAVING THE REST OF CRYPTO BEHIND

Privacy has become the clear outlier of the crypto market.

According to Glassnode, the Privacy sector is up an extraordinary +213% since Bitcoin’s October 6, 2025 high.

Over the same period, every other major sector in the comparison remains underwater:

DeFi −27%
Exchanges −36%
Layer 1 −40%
AI −42%
RWA −57%
Memes −62%
Layer 2 −63%
DePIN −67%
Gaming −74%

One green bar in a market full of red.

Zcash is a major force behind that divergence. ZEC represents a large share of the Privacy index, but according to the underlying analysis, even excluding ZEC the Privacy sector would still be approximately +56% — ahead of every other category shown.

And Zcash has another story developing beneath the price.

The launch of Grayscale’s ZCSH on NYSE Arca has opened a regulated route to ZEC exposure for US investors, while the amount of ZEC held in shielded pools has climbed to roughly 29% of circulating supply.

These are different signals — institutional access on one side, increased use of Zcash’s privacy infrastructure on the other — but both point toward renewed attention on private digital money.

For years, privacy was treated as a niche.

In 2026, it has become crypto’s strongest-performing sector in this comparison.
