Gemini co-founder stated that Zcash is a cryptocurrency version of Bitcoin, ZEC or over 5000 USD

Cryptocurrency exchange Gemini co-founders Cameron Winklevoss and Tyler Winklevoss stated in an interview that Bitcoin is a public, auditable blockchain where anyone can see transaction records, and this openness makes it unsuitable for privacy needs. Privacy coin Zcash is used for private transactions and payments, so the two can coexist. They mentioned that ideally, privacy should be built into Bitcoin, but currently, it is a practical model of Bitcoin storage and Zcash transactions. Bitcoin remains important, but the privacy exposure risk of public chains is greater in the face of artificial intelligence.

The Winklevoss brothers stated that Zcash complements the missing privacy features of Bitcoin, serving as a privacy-focused Bitcoin, and the privacy value of ZEC has yet to be fully realized. If it reaches 10% of Bitcoin's market value, ZEC could rise fivefold, easily surpassing $5,000. They are optimistic about ZEC's price performance in the next 5 to 10 years, especially as privacy demand increases, and they described Zcash as a financial privacy protection tool in the era of artificial intelligence, an antidote against AI-driven surveillance and tyranny, and a hedge against artificial intelligence or quantum threats in the cryptocurrency space.
