Privacy coins tumble as Zcash drops 7%, but Monero gains nearly 3% amid crypto market downturn

Privacy-focused cryptocurrencies saw mixed performance amid a broader crypto market decline, with Zcash falling 7% and triggering $14.55 million in liquidations. Meanwhile, Monero defied the trend, gaining nearly 3% and extending its 90-day rally to over 75%. Regulatory pressures, especially upcoming EU restrictions in 2027, threaten liquidity and trading access for privacy coins. Despite challenges, demand persists due to darknet adoption and the need for transaction privacy, though retail use remains limited compared to speculative trading.

Following the recent volatility in privacy coins, Zcash trades at Rp21.898.583 on Pluang, down 3.24% as of Nov 03, 2026 19:45 WIB, with all order activity currently selling and a typical hold time of 108 days. Meanwhile, Monero continues to defy the sell-off, up 2.41% to Rp1.934.530, with a market cap of Rp35,12T and a shorter typical hold time of 32 days. This contrast highlights differing investor behaviors within privacy-focused cryptocurrencies on Pluang.
