StarkWare co-founder says rigid Bitcoin narrative helped lift ZEC

StarkWare co-founder Eli Ben-Sasson said on X that Zcash's recent rise was partly driven by concerns that Bitcoin has become overly rigid. Ben-Sasson added that some Bitcoin supporters may not welcome the view, but said he was making the point as someone who loves and cares deeply about Bitcoin. Ben-Sasson previously took part in the Zcash project as its Founding Scientist. According to CoinMarketCap, ZEC was trading at $1,464.1, up 9.27%.
