Barry Silbert, founder of Digital Currency Group, predicts a major multi-year bull cycle for privacy coin Zcash (ZEC), comparing it to Bitcoin's 2013-2014 boom phase. Institutional interest is growing, highlighted by the launch of Foundry's Zcash mining pool capturing 30% of the network's hashrate and serving multiple institutional miners. Silbert sees financial privacy becoming more crucial as digital assets integrate with traditional finance. ZEC has surged nearly 984% over the past year and remains a top pick alongside Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana for the upcoming crypto cycle, though its success will also depend on Bitcoin's performance due to altcoin correlation.
