Zcash [ZEC] and Dash Lead Bullish Recovery as Bitcoin Devs Draw Focus on Privacy
As the bid for privacy and fungibility on Bitcoin goes stronger, privacy-centric cryptocurrencies like Zcash [ZEC] and Dash [Dash] seem to be in a bull trend.
Blockstream recently revealed the PayJoin (also called P2EP Pay to endpoint) transactions which will add privacy for the sender and receiver of a BTC transaction. Samson Mow, the CSO of Blockstream told the media,
Without privacy and fungibility, money can be used as a tool for oppression or financial surveillance. Bitcoin is the future of money and the future of money shouldn’t be Orwellian.
A couple of wallet providers and BTC payment servers are getting onboard P2EP. Mow tweeted recently,
It’s time for financial privacy. @sideshiftai now supports #P2EP shifts. It’s amazing what happens when we work together for a common goal!
