The Great Privacy Coin Fiasco: How Zcash’s Four-Year Nap Ended in Tears

Monero, born of the CryptoNote protocol in 2014, was a creature of principle.

Now, depositing tokens on an exchange often precedes a spot of selling, but the old beans at Forward haven’t piped up about any such plans. Tight-lipped, those chaps.
