According to @PANewsCN, Zcash (ZEC) saw strong upside momentum as CoinGecko reported a market capitalization of $5,001,241,986 and a 12.2% 24-hour increase at the time of reporting. Source: CoinGecko. Zcash’s supply schedule halves the block subsidy roughly every four years, with the most recent halving in late 2024 reducing new issuance by 50%, which structurally lowers the flow of new coins into the market.

For traders, the combination of rising demand and structurally lower issuance can heighten price sensitivity to inflows; monitoring spot volumes and liquidity alongside issuance metrics is prudent during such moves.

According to @Excellion, Bitcoin’s core design has been set in stone since version 0.1 and Core contributors should be viewed as node software developers rather than protocol designers, citing Satoshi Nakamoto’s statement to that effect (source: @Excellion on X, Sep 12, 2025; source: Satoshi Nakamoto on Bitcointalk, 2010). For traders, this points to a low probability of base-layer rule changes affecting issuance or consensus, with Bitcoin’s fixed supply and halving schedule documented in developer materials (source: Bitcoin.org Developer Guide; source: Bitcoin Core documentation). Recent upgrades such as Taproot were activated via backward-compatible soft forks, underscoring a conservative L1 change process that limits protocol governance risk (source: BIP341 and BIP342; source: Bitcoin Core release notes).
