Privacy-coin revival

Momentum + institutional/ETF interest returning

Part of the Privacy / Zero-Knowledge sector. The Privacy/Zero-Knowledge sector has seen substantial growth over the past year, with market cap up 129.5% and continued momentum evident in the 30.3 three-month acceleration reading. However, the sector's $16.1B valuation is heavily concentrated in two legacy privacy coins, Zcash and Monero, which together account for the vast majority of total value, while the remaining projects represent a small fraction of the space. This concentration suggests the sector's recent performance is more a reflection of renewed interest in established privacy assets than broad-based growth across newer zero-knowledge or privacy-focused projects.
