Cryptocurrency exchange Gemini co-founders Cameron Winklevoss and Tyler Winklevoss stated in an interview that Bitcoin is a public, auditable blockchain where anyone can see transaction records, and this openness makes it unsuitable for privacy needs. Privacy coin Zcash is used for private transactions and payments, so the two can coexist. They mentioned that ideally, privacy should be built into Bitcoin, but currently, it is a practical model of Bitcoin storage and Zcash transactions. Bitcoin remains important, but the privacy exposure risk of public chains is greater in the face of artificial intelligence.The Winklevoss brothers stated that Zcash complements the missing privacy features of Bitcoin, serving as a privacy-focused Bitcoin, and the privacy value of ZEC has yet to be fully realized. If it reaches 10% of Bitcoin's market value, ZEC could rise fivefold, easily surpassing $5,000. They are optimistic about ZEC's price performance in the next 5 to 10 years, especially as privacy demand increases, and they described Zcash as a financial privacy protection tool in the era of artificial intelligence, an antidote against AI-driven surveillance and tyranny, and a hedge against artificial intelligence or quantum threats in the cryptocurrency space.

David Hoffman, the founder of Bankless, stated that the market for ZEC may not be over yet and provided his assessment of relative valuation: in this cycle, ZEC could reach 10% of BTC's market capitalization, and in the next cycle, it might reach 25%.

On October 17, ILITY announced on platform X that a security incident occurred with the ILITY Network, and the ILITY cross-chain bridge has been temporarily closed. They are cooperating with law enforcement agencies, cryptographic forensic experts, and investors to investigate, and have not yet disclosed the amount of losses or details of the attack.On-chain analyst Specter stated that they observed a certain wallet transferring approximately 35,700 ZEC (worth about $41 million at the time) from a privacy pool, which was then transferred to the Bitcoin and Ethereum networks via NEAR Intents and multiple addresses. Their tracking suggests that the related addresses are associated with the ILITY cross-chain bridge and claim that approximately 4.1 million ILY tokens flowed out of that bridge. Due to the privacy features of Zcash, it has not yet been confirmed whether this ZEC belongs to stolen funds or its exact relationship with the ILITY incident.

The Zakura team, which operates the Zcash network, released a technical article stating that they plan to allocate a unique viewing key for each ZEC exchange completed through NEAR Intents, in order to block future quantum computers from exploiting public refund addresses to piece together user payment histories. NEAR Intents supports cross-chain token exchanges, and when users exchange the privacy coin ZEC for USDC, the service will publish a Zcash address for the user on the NEAR public blockchain, which will be used to return any unused ZEC.The Zcash address contains a public key generated by the wallet's viewing key, which cannot be reverse-engineered by ordinary computers, but large quantum computers running Shor's algorithm could theoretically deduce the key from the address. Zcash wallets can generate multiple seemingly unrelated addresses, but they typically share the same viewing key. Once an attacker cracks it, they can associate all payments received by the account and read the amounts and notes. Zakura's solution allocates a unique viewing key for each exchange, while the spending key remains in the user's main account. Even if the future refund address is compromised, the attacker would only be able to see payments related to that specific exchange.This design also addresses a practical issue: wallets conducting hundreds of exchanges would generate hundreds of keys, requiring each key to scan the entire Zcash chain during backup recovery. Zakura's solution is a privately queryable database that uses private information retrieval technology, so when the wallet inquires about the refund destination, the database will not know the address being queried. Zakura claims that wallets built on its open-source library (including Vizor) will be able to add this feature in the coming weeks, and hardware wallets will follow after firmware support, ahead of the January quantum-resistant payment target set by Zcash developers this month.

Cryptocurrency trader Ansem shared his recent investment views, stating that the crypto market is gradually shifting towards a phase that places greater emphasis on the fundamentals of individual projects, capital inflows, and actual business performance. Therefore, identifying mispriced assets and determining which teams are truly driving project development will become increasingly important, rather than relying entirely on the trends of mainstream assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum.Ansem believes that the investment approach for altcoins in this cycle is different from previous ones. Assets like HYPE and ZEC have shown independent trends from Bitcoin and Ethereum even during periods of overall market weakness.
