The Quiet Revolution: Grayscale's Zcash ETF and the Compliance Paradox
Cobietoshi
We didn't get into this technology because we wanted permission. We got into it because we wanted proof—mathematical, cryptographic, undeniable proof that our financial lives belonged to us. And now, Grayscale has wrapped that dream in a suit and tie, listed it on NYSE Arca, and called it an ETF. The first US Zcash ETF. The first time a privacy coin has been given a seat at the table of traditional finance. But as I stare at the trading charts and the compliance frameworks, I can't help but wonder: What exactly are we celebrating? A milestone, or a compromise?
