Source: CryptoNewsNet Original Title: 4 predictions for privacy in 2026 Original Link: 2025 was a big year for privacy onchain. Zcash, one of the original privacy coins, jumped more than 600%, and was one of the year’s biggest success stories. Ethereum and Solana announced major initiatives to bring privacy to their networks. And startups building privacy-preserving tech with zero-knowledge (ZK) proofs and fully homomorphic encryption (FHE) continued to gain traction.

Influencers like Mert Mumtaz, CEO of Solana infrastructure firm Helius, said it was “Privacy Szn.” And many others said privacy was essential for institutional adoption, as companies generally don’t want to do business on public blockchains with fully transparent ledgers.

ZEC-2,21%
ETH0,09%
SOL-0,76%

ZEC's recent market movement is truly remarkable. I've long said that privacy is the trend, but it seems not everyone agrees.

Why is ZEC surging so strongly? Why didn't I get in... The 2026 privacy narrative is about to explode, right?

Zcash surges 600%? Privacy coins are really making a comeback now. Those skeptics should shut up.

According to my analysis, the 600% increase in Zcash indicates that on-chain privacy has finally gained the attention of mainstream players. Unfortunately, I didn't hold a large position last year, so now I can only sit back and watch the show.

Zcash's surge of 600% is indeed outrageous, but there probably aren't many people actually using privacy coins.

Zcash increased by 600%. Why didn't I get on board? It's really incredible.
