Ethereum's price plunged 10% on June 5, leading a broad altcoin sell-off that pushed total altcoin market capitalization below $880 billion. Zcash fell over 40% after an AI-discovered security flaw in its Orchard shielded pool was revealed, causing panic and a loss of its top privacy coin status to Monero. The exploit highlighted potential weaknesses in zero-knowledge proof privacy tech, sparking debate about alternatives like fully homomorphic encryption. Despite a patch, the market remains shaken, with Ethereum down nearly 22% over the week and significant leveraged losses wiped out.
