Zcash jumps 12% to $1,368 as PHP vulnerability warnings lift privacy coins

  • —ZEC gained 12% in 24 hours and is up 150% year to date
  • —Privacy coin market cap rose 5.4% to $34.8 billion
  • —ZEC social dominance sits at 1.6% versus a September peak of 5.5%
  • —NU7 would cut target block time from 75 to 25 seconds, with activation possible from Nov. 5
Why it matters: Privacy demand is rising amid cyber threats, but weak social buzz suggests the rally may lack broad conviction.
