11月16日，知名加密评论员 Hitesh Malviya (@hmalviya9) 转发并引用了自己早年的一条贴文——时机看起来颇为刻意。
这条来自十月的原贴现在又被传播开来，把传奇的切·格瓦拉黑白照片和一段每当监管收紧时越发有力的诗性宣言放在了一起。
自由首先爆发。任何人都可以发币、全天候交易、跨境传输价值而不需许可。市场繁荣，诈骗更响亮地涌现，监管终于注意到了。
稳定币成了“更负责任”的选择。KYC 交易所成为常态。社区里很大一部分人耸耸肩说：“至少我们现在受保护了。”
正是在那时，老旧的呐喊又开始回响——那是赛博朋克们一直在角落里低声吟唱的歌。
这是 Hitesh 最初写的全文（现在又被他重新发出）：
freedom and privacy are two sides of crypto.
freedom got all the attention, grew bigger, crypto enabled freedom to create markets, trade, transact, move, invest.
privacy took the back seat when freedom was rising, and that attracted regulators when they found that freedom had become the reason humans started scamming each other.
they wanted to control freedom by writing new rules, which would eventually kill the other side of crypto: privacy. people in crypto thought it was fine to live with authoritarian control, at least it would protect them.
they thought stablecoins were fine. they thought regulations were good for them. and that is when the old chant began to rise in the streets of crypto again.
the old chant that kept the dreams of cypherpunks alive in the small corners of the crypto world. the old chant that spread the message of privacy forward. the old chant that took a new shape, a new avatar.
it started being understood by the new generation of crypto. now we are here. the awakening moment is here. privacy has your attention again.
do not lose it to charts. it is your right. use tools that offer privacy. be part of privacy-focused project communities.
educate people about privacy in your own way.
$zec started a movement.
we need to make it big together.
为什么这在 2025 年听起来不一样
我们看着链上分析公司越滚越富，交易所交出用户数据，政府起草把每个钱包都当银行账户对待的规则。与此同时，meme-coin 赌场用 100× 的图表把大多数人分散注意力。
Hitesh 基本上在喊：别忘了承诺的另一半。
Zcash ($ZEC) 自 2016 年上线以来，仍然是少数默认提供完全屏蔽交易（可选但内置）的币种之一，使用称为 zk-SNARKs 的零知识证明。用通俗的话说：没人能看到谁把什么发给了谁——甚至区块链本身也看不到——但网络仍能知道交易是有效的。
Monero 也实现了类似功能，Railgun 和 Tornado Cash（RIP）在以太坊上尝试过，新的 L2s 也在重新实验，但 Zcash 是最早插旗宣称“隐私是特性，不是漏洞”的项目之一。
梗图的魔力
用切·格瓦拉肖像做传播，正是完美的加密梗图战争：立刻就能辨认，充满革命气息，不可能被忽视。一张图把复杂的观点转化为纯粹的氛围传播开来。
这也解释了为什么“laser eyes” 能在比特币极端支持者中传播，或为什么 Dogecoin 要有一只 Shiba Inu——梗图比白皮书传播意识形态更快。
不管这次是否能把 Zcash 推上月球，信息很明确：只要监视渗入链上活动，有人会继续发切·格瓦拉，有人会继续搭建隐私工具，老旧的呐喊永远不会彻底消失。
隐私不只是一个功能。到最后，它可能就是整个革命的全部。
