Recent price drops for Zcash (ZEC), Internet Computer Coin (ICP), and Monero (XMR) highlight the volatile crypto market, with their values declining by double digits alongside a weakening Bitcoin price. This decline coincided with Bitcoin failing to hold above $107,000, escalating overall market volatility. 50 billion USD has been wiped off the crypto market cap as a result of these price movements. Experts are observing increasing regulatory uncertainties and their potential impact on privacy-focused coins. The lack of statements from major figures in the industry like Zooko Wilcox or Arthur Hayes fuels speculation regarding the future direction of these assets.
