I'm trading with bitcoin and zcash, and I much got benefit because prices zcash are skyrocket, but i don't know until when zcash can survive, i hope the price not from user speculation or bump.
I also get profit in zcash in the last few months but i doubt that it will skyrocket again because it is more like manipulated coin and only depending on the hype of the market or the whales to be specific. I'm more comfortable with bitcoin because it is stable and it can't be manipulated easily like zcash and until now, i'm still earning more profit in bitcoin rather than zcash.
I believe you have done with zcash in right way. Moreover altcoins are just being created only for that purposes, trade them- make profits- forget them. If you keep on touching down, your losses will be inevitable, it is a lesson I have learned from my own experiences.
Comparing zcash with bitcoin shows immaturity because in no ways zcash is capable of comparing with bitcoins. Getting anonymity is possible with bitcoins itself, for that purpose alone I believe we do not need another coin beyond bitcoins.
Altcoins may not be as strong as bitcoin but they are slowly getting into the competition, ETH is now getting bigger due to many tokens that
are using ETH based platform. If the entire industry will grow, both bitcoin and altcoin will, and that will depend on how people support it.
