privacy coins still can't say what they're for, besides trading

privacy coins like monero and zcash promise private, untraceable payments. the pitch is old, but most of the trading volume is still speculation, not people paying for things. the question of what they are actually used for keeps coming back whenever the sector pumps.

HOW TO CHECK IT YOURSELF

look up monero and zcash on coingecko and compare trading volume to market cap
check how many exchanges still list privacy coins and which have delisted them
look at on-chain activity on a monero or zcash explorer and compare it to the price action

WHAT IT MEANS FOR YOU
if you trade privacy coins, know whether you're buying a use case or a narrative. price moves on hype can reverse fast when real usage doesn't back them up. not financial advice.

now perp on hyperliquid's xyz market drops 27% in 24h, $6.6M open interest

the now perp on xyz, a HIP-3 market (markets anyone can deploy), moved -26.8% in 24h. it saw $14.3M traded against $6.6M open interest, meaning positions turned over more than twice. big single-day moves on stock perps show how fast leverage gets tested on HIP-3 venues.

$6.6Mopen interest

HOW TO CHECK IT YOURSELF

open app.hyperliquid.xyz, go to the xyz markets and find the now perp
check the 24h change, open interest and volume on the market page
compare with hyperdash to see how open interest changed over the day

WHAT IT MEANS FOR YOU
stock perps on HIP-3 can move hard in one day, so size and leverage matter. thin open interest means liquidations can push the price further.

purrdat perp on hyperliquid's xyz market jumps 21.1% in 24h on $19.5M open interest

the purrdat perp on xyz, a HIP-3 market (a perp market anyone can deploy), rose 21.1% in 24h. open interest, the total value of open positions, sits at $19.5M, with $41.3M traded. a move like that on a small deployer-run market shows how fast HIP-3 liquidity can swing.

HOW TO CHECK IT YOURSELF

open app.hyperliquid.xyz and find the xyz markets in the perps list
look up purrdat and check the 24h change, open interest and volume
compare the numbers with the hyperdash page for the same market

WHAT IT MEANS FOR YOU
hip-3 markets can move hard on modest open interest, so size and leverage matter. check who deployed a market and how deep the book is before trading it.

The problem isn’t that AI is intelligent. It isn’t. The problem is that too many adults (but not all) are at once mechanistic, imitative, unimaginative, stupid, formulaic, influenceable, & gullible, arrogant beyond their skill set, & too expensive to maintain.
