Grayscale launched a Zcash ETF on NYSE Arca providing US investors regulated exposure to privacy coins, while major centralized exchanges like Binance, OKX, and Kraken delisted Monero amid regulatory pressures. THORChain's upgrade aims to enable native cross-chain swaps for privacy coins, addressing access gaps despite regulatory headwinds, especially from EU anti-money laundering rules starting 2027.
This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Crypto & Web3.
◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway
You can access privacy coin exposure via ETFs while direct trading options shrink under regulator pressure. If you build crypto investment platforms or decentralized trading, prepare to bridge these two worlds or face losing customers to regulated products.
