Matt Huang, co-founder of Paradigm, a venture capital firm specializing in cryptocurrency, predicted that Zcash (ZEC) adoption will expand as a privacy asset complementing Bitcoin. He also stated on X, "A developer fund utilizing inflation is crucial for securing long-term development funding for the blockchain ecosystem. Continuous development investment is particularly necessary to address AI-based cyberattacks and advancements in quantum computing. For ZEC to gain long-term trust as a monetary asset, it should incorporate other governance methods in parallel rather than being operated solely by token holder votes." According to CoinMarketCap, ZEC is currently trading at $1345.24, up 20.44%.
