Why are privacy coins like Zcash gaining traction amid increasing financial surveillance?

[kevin1]

A: Privacy coins (ZEC, Monero, etc.) leverage zero-knowledge proofs and stealth transactions to conceal sender, receiver, and amount.

Use cases driving demand:

Financial sovereignty: Users retain control without third-party monitoring.

Compliance pressure hedging: As governments increase KYC/AML enforcement, privacy coins offer alternatives for compliant-but-private transactions.

Developer-driven upgrades: New protocols improve transaction speed and shielded capabilities.

Investors see Zcash’s surge as a hedge against traditional financial scrutiny and regulatory overreach.
