Between 2017-2018, privacy-focused crypto projects were very popular.
Now, privacy-oriented projects such as Monero and dash are obsolete.
I do not invest in privacy-focused crypto projects.
1.) They can be greatly affected by possible regulations. They can be de-listed.
2.) It's an old trend.. People don't get excited about the same things again...
I guess people don't care about their privacy anymore because they have nothing to hide. But you can bet that once governments tighten their surveillance efforts, privacy-oriented cryptocurrencies will become a necessity to everyday people. Centralized exchanges may de-list such coins, but it will always be possible to trade them through other means. I'd envision a future where privacy coins will become the minority, as VCs and other investors pour money into ordinary cryptocurrency projects. I'm fine with that as long as people have a choice. With decentralization put at the forefront of most privacy coins, I believe they will last a lifetime. Just my thoughts
