Hackers want Monero. VCs want Zcash. That split is the whole market.
XMR hides sender, receiver, and amount on every tx. No switch. No viewing key. That is why ransoms and darknet still use it. Revolut’s latest demand was 6,000 XMR, not ZEC.
ZEC made privacy optional. That compromise got listings, an ETF, and institutional size. Price ripped past $1,300 while XMR sat near $500. Holdable beat untraceable on the tape.
One is a tool. One is a ticker. Different buyers. Same word: privacy.
