According to @1HowardWu, the adoption and discussion of zero-knowledge proofs (ZK) in the cryptocurrency sector have accelerated significantly, as highlighted during Consensus 2025. This technology, previously niche five years ago, is now at the forefront of blockchain innovation, driving new privacy and scalability solutions. For traders, the growing momentum around ZK protocols is fueling investment opportunities in ZK rollup projects and related tokens. The increased attention suggests further liquidity inflows and price action in ZK-focused assets, as confirmed by industry participation at Consensus 2025 (source: @1HowardWu, May 21, 2025).
