I would respect CoinDesk.com if they would simply come out and say that they endorse Zcash as their alternative cryptocoin of choice, rather than the promotional article/advertisements that they put out every other day or so.

And why would they do that? Zcash is a BTC clone, with an added ZK-snark sidechain. Bitcoin will add Zcash's tech as its own sidechain and Zcash will die. The only purpose Zcash serves is to fund the development of zero knowledge tech. It won't retain value long term.

Coindesk does put a disclaimer at the bottom of the article saying that they are invested in the Zcash team. But yes, it is ridiculous how often they churn out articles on Zcash, and amazingly they are almost always one-sided in favor of Zcash.

I would respect CoinDesk.com *if* they had any integrity.
They lost it long ago with stunts with Doge & Ethereum.

This topic ?
It's news questioning whether the shitcoin is done dropping in market value ?
Or is it "News" because of what the piece of shit can do ?
Is it News seeing any god damn change in adoption levels ?

You know how fucking sad & pathetic it is when all we do is discuss coin prices on centralized exchanges ?

..carry on counting your ROI's Investards ..nothing to see here, just more "FUD"  Cheesy

FUD first & ask questions later™

This just highlights your complete lack of understanding of fungibility.
