Market is looking for real narrative again, and privacy is coming back strong. And it's outperforming other categories during this market dip. $ZEC flipping $XMR showed that demand is shifting to zero-knowledge privacy, not just privacy coin. Zcash proved ZK cryptography in production, which is very valuable. But it's still older architecture and not built for high-volume settlement. The next step in privacy is ZK + scale, because real finance and serious apps need both. Not to hide anything illegal, but to protect client data, business info and transaction flow. This is where $ZERA @ZeraLabs becomes interesting. It started community-first on Solana and is building a privacy layer for assets people actually use (USDC, USDT, etc.), with Solana speed as the base. Also it's chain agnostic, and can be used not only on solana. Old privacy model = private token New privacy model = private settlement for many assets at high throughput ZK is where the market is moving. I'm absolutely ZERA pilled.
