Privacy Coins: Monero & Zcash Rule the Crypto Realm 🚀💰

Cryptocurrencies are having a moment, like a party where everyone’s wearing invisible hats. This week, the total market value of these digital secrets has climbed to a staggering $14.4 billion-enough to buy a small country, if you’re into that sort of thing. 🤯

Among the top performers, Monero (XMR) and Zcash (ZEC) continue to dominate the sector like a pair of wizards casting spells in a cryptocurrency wizard school. Their market caps? Over $6.2 billion and $5.6 billion respectively-because nothing says “I’m secret” like a huge number. 🧙‍♂️

Monero and Zcash lead the rally

At the time of writing, Monero was trading at $340, which is about as much as a decent sofa. This is a modest 0.7% over the last 24 hours, adding to a 10.4% surge in 7 days. This is all thanks to the increasing trading activity, which as of today, recorded over $155M in trading volume. 🧾

Zcash (ZEC), the second largest token on the board, was trading at $336. Unlike Monero, the token is down by 2.4% from the previous day, which is like losing a bet at a casino that only takes your money. However, it has surged over 24% in the last seven days. Zcash is also seeing a high number trading activity reaching over $720 million in volume. Over the last three months, the token has surged by a massive 795% in value. 📈

There are other major tokens that have been performing well; however, with a lower market cap. For instance, Ycash has surged by over $210 in 7 days, bringing its market cap up to $34,549, Pirate Chain has done 33.4% over the same period with a market cap of $117 million. It’s like a crypto version of a squirrel running on a wheel, but with more math. 🐿️
