Encryption is an undervalued commodity, due to the high level of education it requires to infer the knowledge set required to assess that value to be deemed intrinsic. Many of the most talented Quants in the world are lacking some skill sets required to evaluate these sophisticated demonstrations of formal verification. Zcash has a state of the art encryption using Zero-Knowledge Proofs, a relatively new type of verification formula design to preserve the privacy of the sender and the receiver.
I would recommend reading a broad variety of studies on the topic, it is very interesting especially if you are intertested in #privacy #cryptocurrency or #trustless-escrow

Price Manipulation has lead us to this point in the markets. I am not sure what the Bulls and Bears are doing but they look stupid. I hope this will resolve itself soon because this is just silly looking.
(Notice that Litecoin is worth 1/3rd of the price of Bitcoin SV, even after their large press event at the UFC.)
(IMO this price index is upsidedown, the prices are irrelevant but the relative values are not well representative of the intrinsic value in the cryptocurrencies individually.)
Lets discuss the current market trends in the comments below!
