Zcash: A Privacy Coin ETF Is Holding Up Crypto While Bitcoin Fights for $79K (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Bitcoin trades near $78,900 on September 9, up half a percent after bouncing from $77,600, reclaiming $79,000, and promptly losing it again. It sits well below the $82,000 it tagged last week before a scorching jobs report yanked the rug. Here's the strange part. The steadying force in crypto right now isn't a Bitcoin product or an Ethereum fund. It's Grayscale's spot Zcash ETF, a wrapper around a privacy coin that major exchanges were delisting just a few years ago. ZEC has blown past $500 mill
Zcash Just Crossed $1,000 for the First Time in a Decade. One Short Seller Lost $18.5 Million. (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Zcash surged roughly 20% Friday, tagging $1,023 after opening near $828, its first trip above $1,000 in almost ten years. The privacy token is up about 94% in a month and more than 2,300% in a year, a run from a $150 low last November that has carried its market cap toward $17 billion and knocked Dogecoin out of the top ten. The trade that made it violent was everyone betting against it. About $36.6 million in leveraged ZEC positions were liquidated in 24 hours, and $34.5 million of that came fr
"It's Dead": Bitcoin Payments Vanish at Bitcoin Beach as BTC Tops $80K (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Bitcoin trades near $79,000 on August 25, up roughly 24% from $64,146 just one week ago, its largest weekly gain in more than three years. It tagged $79,463 overnight, putting the $80,000 psychological wall within striking distance. The crypto winter narrative that dominated 2026 didn't fade. It got steamrolled in five trading days. Now the question is whether this is the launchpad or the trap, and the answer likely arrives Friday. The demand side finally showed up. US spot Bitcoin ETFs pulled i
Why This Gen Z Tech CEO Says the Future Belongs to Generation Alpha (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Marcus Noel has spent time in the rooms most people only see in Davos b-roll, and his strategy inside them is telling: he listens more than he speaks. The founder and CEO of iCON Gen Z Technologies, a platform connecting next-gen creators to professional opportunities worldwide, has a one-word diagnosis for how the global economy actually works. Access. "You can't build things if you don't have access to capital. You don't know things if you don't have access to information. The powers at the to
Why Bitcoin Suddenly Exploded to $78K: The Treasury Just Blinked (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Bitcoin is trading near $78,000 on August 21 after one of the most violent rallies of the year: up roughly 18% in 48 hours and 24% on the week, punching through $70,000 for the first time since late May and leaving the $58,000 capitulation lows looking like ancient history. Here's the part that matters. The trigger wasn't an ETF headline or an adoption deal. It was the US Treasury blinking. This week the Treasury surprised markets by doubling its long-term bond buybacks from $2 billion to $4 bil
