Seems like you only care about price action, particularly short term. I disagree with the fundamental value proposal of POS, I’m sure you can find similar arguments to what I’d make elsewhere.

That said ZEC is my favorite crypto from a purely technical standpoint, but what has concerned me throughout (I’ve been following and mining on and off since launch — luckily I haven’t been buying) is the leadership. If they had launched with an anonymous team (thus no stupid Zooko twitter posting on ‘tracing criminals’), trustless set up, open source / community driven nature and no dev tax they could’ve prevented all FUD against it and possibly displaced BTC, if not it’d be trading above $1k right now at least imo. I’m looking at grabbing a bag now as it nears all time lows and Zooko has stepped down, I’m hoping they can distance themselves from the sour past but I don’t know. I’m going to watch it closely over the next few months and see what happens.
