## Resource

Zcash just exploded past $600 after Multicoin Capital went public with its ZEC accumulation, causing a $62M short squeeze and a sudden flippening against Monero. But is this more than just a rally? In this video, Louis unpacks why institutional players are loading up on ZEC, how regulatory shifts, new privacy features, and quantum-resistant tech are kicking privacy coins back into the spotlight, and breaks down the hard risks that everyone else is missing.
