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!

Dash offers optional privacy solution, PrivateSend, which can be activated by the buyer. Similarly, Zcash also offers optional privacy with two sets of addresses, private (z-addresses) or transparent (t-addresses).

Moreover, Dash investors are also looking forward to a ‘halving’ scenario, which will reduce rewards on the generation of Dash. The Dash mining rewards to the masternodes will reduce by 7.14% on 27th March 2020. The current #Dash 1.55331344 masternode/miner minimum reward will reduce to 1.44236248.
