Why Monero's Exploding to New ATHs While Zcash Crashes—Right After Dubai Banned Privacy Coins?????#
Hey, ever wonder why banning something often makes it explode?
Dubai's DFSA just banned privacy tokens like Monero ($XMR) and Zcash (
$ZEC ) on regulated exchanges (Jan 12, 2026). You'd be expecting panic dumps......
Instead? XMR smashed a fresh all-time high around $646–$661 today, up 9%+ in 24h and 40%+ this week. It's the privacy beast—always-on anonymity, no weak spots, fully decentralized...hm
ZEC? Down hard to ~$408–$410 after a 20%+ plunge. The ban wasn't the killer; the real gut punch was Jan 7's alarming bombshell—Electric Coin Company's entire core dev team quit over governance process with the board. Whale sells, FUD, and "is this project dead?" vibes crushed it.
The ban? Total backfire for privacy fans. More gov crackdowns = more people craving real untraceable cash in our tracked world. Traders ditched ZEC's drama and piled into battle-proven XMR. Classic Streisand effect: bans prove why these coins matter.
Lesson?
In this crypto's privacy game, true strength ever wins. Reg FUD fuels the winners, not kills them. Watch global rules, but XMR's run shows demand for real privacy is only heating up and up.
