Zcash rose about 20% in 24 hours as Paradigm co-founder Matt Huang disclosed that the firm invested in ZEC amid a broader crypto market rally.<\/p>\n

Zcash gained about 20% over the past 24 hours as Paradigm co-founder Matt Huang disclosed that the crypto investment firm made an unspecified purchase of ZEC, the privacy-focused token that has been outperforming a broader rise across crypto markets.<\/p>\n

Zcash (ZEC), a cryptocurrency that enables<\/a> users to make shielded transactions that conceal addresses and transaction amounts using zero-knowledge proofs, traded<\/a> around $1,338 at last look on Thursday.
