The recent phenomenon in the privacy coin sector is particularly noteworthy—capital has clearly increased its deployment in this area.

Take ZEC as an example, currently over 5 million coins are in a hidden state, accounting for about 31% of the circulating supply, and this number continues to grow each year. What does this reflect? It’s a genuine market vote for privacy needs.

There’s also a project called DRGX, with even more striking data—out of 8.16 million coins in circulation, 7.48 million are hidden, making up 91%. The key is that this project’s design concept is interesting; it adopts a default privacy mechanism combined with the strong privacy features of zero-knowledge proofs. Some see it as a hybrid of Monero and ZEC, a ZK-based solution with strong privacy.

From these data, privacy coins are not declining; instead, they are being re-evaluated.

ZEC data is okay, but the 91% hidden rate of DRGX is really impressive, this is the power of default privacy. Privacy coins are really making a comeback, I didn't expect that. Are ZK solutions so popular now? It feels like the trend has shifted. Over five million ZEC are playing hide and seek; people really need this kind of thing. Whether DRGX is hot or not is another story, but this approach is indeed impressive. The demand for privacy has always been there; it's just that the market is only now catching on. Default privacy operations are definitely smarter than ZEC.

Hmm, a 91% hiding rate is indeed quite impressive. DRGX is really getting things done.

91% hiding rate? That number is outrageous, feels a bit excessive Privacy needs are real, but how long can such a design last The growth of ZEC says it all; capital is very perceptive Wait, isn't default privacy actually more likely to attract unwanted attention DRGX sounds like a black market exclusive coin haha

91% hiding rate? That’s really afraid of being tracked haha Privacy coins are starting to rise again, honestly a bit surprising The data on DRGX is indeed impressive, but could it just be a scam to cut leeks? The 31% for ZEC is understandable, but this one is outrageous Default privacy sounds good, but I’m just worried about being targeted Capital deployment is increasing... Looks like someone is really betting on privacy Wait, with such a high hiding rate, could it actually make it easier for regulators to target? Privacy coins won’t die as long as people want to hide Basically, everyone just wants to trade secretly, me too
