Zcash is a privacy-focused cryptocurrency that uses trustless zero-knowledge proofs to enable fully encrypted transactions while maintaining blockchain transparency and security. It was the first cryptocurrency to implement zero-knowledge encryption for private peer-to-peer payments, addressing the fundamental privacy gap in traditional cryptocurrencies that expose transaction details publicly.   With a fixed supply of 21 million ZEC and a halving schedule similar to Bitcoin, Zcash allows users to prove transactions are valid without revealing sensitive information like wallet balances, transaction amounts, or participant identities, making it suitable for everyday payments, long-term savings, and cross-border money transfers where financial confidentiality matters.  The protocol operates on its own blockchain currently using Proof-of-Work consensus, though it's evolving toward Proof-of-Stake through the planned "Crosslink" upgrade to enhance security, scalability, and energy efficiency. Zcash employs trustless zero-knowledge proofs (Halo) within its Orchard shielded pool to verify transactions without revealing sender, receiver, or amount information.   Users can choose between transparent public transactions and shielded private transactions through Unified Addresses, which work with both types. The network is faster and cheaper than Bitcoin, with new blocks mined every 75 seconds and transaction fees typically just a fraction of a cent. Privacy adoption has surged in 2025, with over 30% of total ZEC supply now held in fully shielded pools.  Zcash was created by a group of scientists in 2013 who initially proposed Zerocoin as a privacy extension to Bitcoin before building a standalone protocol. The ecosystem operates with a self-funded development model where block rewards support independent teams through the Zcash Community Grants Committee and a new Coinholder-Controlled Fund.

Zcash

Zcash is trending due to the recent departure of its core development team, sparking widespread community debate on the future of the privacy-focused cryptocurrency. While many view this as a significant setback, others interpret increased institutional interest, including substantial ZEC accumulation by Cypherpunk and a Grayscale ETF filing, as a strong bullish signal for Zcash within the evolving crypto market.

PMGC Holdings Inc

PMGC Holdings Inc.

ELAB is trending due to a recent reverse stock split that significantly reduced its float, fueling intense speculation for a potential short squeeze and a parabolic run, with many drawing comparisons to past "low float mania" stocks. Community discussion is buzzing around strategic announcements in nuclear energy, aerospace certification, and AI-driven drug discovery, although some express caution about the company's history and potential for dilution. This confluence of low float, new developments, and high short interest is driving active conversation.

Ripple is the catchall name for the cryptocurrency platform, the transactional protocol for which is actually XRP, in the same fashion as Ethereum is the name for the platform that facilitates trades in Ether. Like other cryptocurrencies, Ripple is built atop the idea of a distributed ledger network which requires various parties to participate in validating transactions, rather than any singular centralized authority. That facilitates transactions all over the world, and transfer fees are far cheaper than the likes of bitcoin. Unlike other cryptocurrencies, XRP transfers are effectively immediate, requiring no typical confirmation time.  Ripple was originally founded by a single company, Ripple Labs, and continues to be backed by it, rather than the larger network of developers that continue bitcoin’s development. It also doesn’t have a fluctuating amount of its currency in existence. Where bitcoin has a continually growing pool with an eventual maximum, and Ethereum theoretically has no limit, Ripple was created with all of its 100 billion XRP tokens right out of the gate. That number is maintained with no mining and most of the tokens are owned and held by Ripple Labs itself — around 60 billion at the latest count.  Even at the recently reduced value of around half a dollar per XRP, that means Ripple Labs is currently sitting on around $20 billion worth of the cryptocurrency (note: Ripple’s price crashed hard recently, and may be worth far less than $60 billion by time you read this). It holds 55 billion XRP in an escrow account, which allows it to sell up to a billion per month if it so chooses in order to fund new projects and acquisitions. Selling such an amount would likely have a drastic effect on the cryptocurrency’s value, and isn’t something Ripple Labs plans to do anytime soon.  In actuality, Ripple Labs is looking to leverage the technology behind XRP to allow for faster banking transactions around the world. While Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are built on the idea of separating financial transactions from the financial organizations of traditional currencies, Ripple is almost the opposite in every sense.  XRP by Ripple price can be found on this page alongside the market capitalization and additional stats.

Ripple

XRP is buzzing with significant mainstream media attention, dubbed a 'hottest' crypto trade, which is fueling investor optimism. The community is sharply divided, however, as discussions around continuous institutional ETF inflows and the pivotal Clarity Act contend with frustration over volatile price swings and accusations of market manipulation.

Regencell Bioscience Holdings Ltd. is a early-stage bioscience company that focuses on research, development and commercialization of Traditional Chinese Medicine for the treatment of neurocognitive disorders and degeneration, specifically Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and Autism Spectrum Disorder. The company was founded by Yat-Gai Au on October 30, 2014 and is headquartered in Hong Kong.

Regencell Bioscience Holdings Ltd

Regencell Bioscience is currently trending due to an exceptionally high short borrow rate, a reported zero availability of shares to short, and its ultra-low float, fueling intense community speculation around a potential short squeeze. Traders are actively comparing it to past high-volatility Hong Kong-based stocks and discussing significant price movements, despite underlying questions regarding its valuation given reported zero revenue. The prevailing sentiment highlights a 'casino play' where shorts are perceived as trapped, driving conversations about a gamma squeeze and further upside potential.

FJET Stock Takes A Breather Post Massive Rally – Starfighters Space Releases 2026 Plans After Stock Market Debut

Following the Trump administration's executive order issued last week to sharpen the focus of the U.S. space policy, Starfighters Space stated that it will advance its commercial and government mission activities.

<ul class="summary-bullets"><li>The company is a Florida-based aerospace firm that owns and operates commercial supersonic aircraft out of NASA's Kennedy Space Center.&nbsp;</li><li>Shares of FJET began trading at $10 on Thursday, representing a 180% upside from its public offering price of $3.59.</li><li>Starfighters Space is the only commercial company in the world to fly at a sustained Mach 2 capability, the company said.</li></ul>Shares of Starfighters Space, Inc.

The company privately owns a fleet of seven F-104 one-and two-seat aircraft.The aerospace firm is also the only commercial company in the world to fly at a sustained Mach 2 capability, meaning its jets can travel at twice the speed of sound. Starfighters raised $40 million at the time of listing to invest in research and development and scaling of its STARLAUNCH I and STARLAUNCH II programs that will support the sub-orbital launches of its F-104 supersonic aircraft.While small satellite launches are its primary source of revenue, Starfighters also provides hypersonic R&amp;D development for a range of clients.
