When it comes to compliant privacy coins, Litecoin actually has a stronger shot than Zcash at dominating the space long-term. Here's why: Zcash carries baggage—both in terms of reputation and how it's perceived. Many view it as overly centralized, essentially controlled by a company rather than a true community-driven asset. Litecoin? That's different. It's the OG privacy player, reliable, and widely recognized as the silver to Bitcoin's gold. That positioning matters. Litecoin has institutional credibility and genuine staying power. The fundamentals favor it. Over time, you'll likely see Litecoin steadily overtake Zcash as the go-to privacy solution—not through hype, but through genuine adoption and regulatory acceptance.

The pattern is already formed, and the choice between LTC and ZEC actually has had an answer for a long time. Looking at the distribution of chips, institutional holdings clearly favor LTC, and this is no coincidence. On the ZEC side, the company's control over the market feels too heavy, a typical project team cutting leeks template, no wonder it is disliked by institutions. LTC, on the other hand, has accumulated a credit premium because of its OG status, and the risk release cycle is also healthier. However, I must remind everyone not to be brainwashed by the word "compliance," as ultimately, who survives to see the harvest season depends on market sentiment indicators. Currently, LTC's probability strategy is indeed more optimal.

This wave of LTC is indeed impressive, far surpassing the nonsense with ZEC.

LTC will easily surpass ZEC; it's just a matter of time. By the way, when will the centralized issues of Zcash be fixed?

LTC should have turned around long ago; everyone can see through the issues with ZEC.

Hmm... the analysis of LTC this time is okay, but is ZEC really that doomed? It feels exaggerated.

LTC this wave is indeed a bit stable, the issue of Zcash company controlling the market has long been outdated, now it's all about institutional recognition.

LTC is just destined to be like this, marked as dead by the silver, but at least it's living a steady life. ZEC is indeed disappointing; its centralization has been exposed too many times.
