Grayscale Founder Bullish on ZEC at $8,000, U.S. Stock Trading May Shift to 24/7
On August 26, during an event in Bhutan hosted by Yzi Labs, 0xAA, the founder of WTF Academy, spoke with Barry Silbert, the founder of Grayscale. Silbert indicated that U.S. stock trading could soon transition to a 24/7 model, with expectations to achieve this within five years. If competitive pressure from crypto trading platforms like Hyperliquid continues to grow, this process may accelerate. Silbert believes that once U.S. stocks operate on a 24/7 basis, the appeal of tokenized stocks may diminish, although there will still be room for growth in other regions. When discussing ZEC, Silbert stated that Memecoins are essentially a form of "gambling" and suggested that if one is to engage in such high-risk trading, "the best option is to buy ZEC." He believes that ZEC, based on BTC and possessing stronger privacy attributes, has the potential to reach a market cap of one-tenth of BTC in the long term, which translates to $8,000.
