The post BDAG’s Beta Testnet Enhances Scalability, XMR Hold Still & ZEC Recovers – Coincu appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.

BlockDAG’s Beta Testnet Momentum Builds With 110K Users Onboard! Zcash Recovers 11%, Monero Remains Steady Privacy has shifted from being a side feature to a must-have in blockchain development. Monero and Zcash have built their core identities around privacy, offering different methods to protect user anonymity through tools like zero-knowledge proofs and advanced encryption. While these privacy coins have gained recognition for their strong privacy models, they still struggle with challenges tied to scalability, user accessibility, and stable market performance. Unlike these established names, BlockDAG (BDAG) is trialing privacy-based capabilities in real conditions via its Beta Testnet, known as “Primordial.” It’s currently integrating more than 110,000 wallets into vesting contracts, which helps verify how well its smart contracts function under pressure. This is a key indicator for large-scale financial tools where privacy must not only exist but also work under heavy demand. Monero: Strengthening Private Transactions Monero (XMR) focuses on safeguarding anonymity in all transactions. It uses specialized encryption methods like Ring Signatures, Ring Confidential Transactions (RingCT), and Stealth Addresses to ensure that transaction details such as sender, receiver, and amount stay hidden. In contrast to other public blockchain systems where every transaction can be tracked, Monero’s design prevents tracing or linking wallet activities across its network. XMR has shown consistent strength in a fluctuating crypto market. On March 29, 2025, it was priced at around $180, a 20% gain compared to $150 in March 2024. While this rise may not match the pace of trending meme coins, it represents steady progress in a space often driven by short-term noise rather than long-term use. Zcash: Combining Privacy with Transparent Integrity Zcash (ZEC) stands out by letting users pick between open or shielded transactions. Using zk-SNARKs (a type of zero-knowledge proof), the network allows those who choose shielded addresses to send…
