Ever wonder why a NASDAQ-listed entity would go all-in on a privacy coin? Reliance Global Group just flipped their entire treasury into ZEC at an average entry of $245. Here's the kicker—ZEC funding rates are now sitting at 181.66% APR for delta-neutral setups. That's not a typo. You could theoretically farm that spread risk-free if you hedge your spot position with perps.
But let's not pretend this is about yield farming. Big players don't stack privacy-focused assets just because the APR looks juicy. They stack them because they're reading the regulatory tea leaves. The EU's tightening the screws on transaction surveillance, and when compliance frameworks eventually mandate privacy-preserving solutions, guess who's already positioned? The smart money isn't reacting to regulation—it's front-running it. If institutional treasuries are rotating into privacy tech before the rulebook drops, maybe retail should start paying attention.

181% APR sounds outrageous, but thinking about it, it's not that ridiculous. The truly outrageous part is that institutions are quietly dealing with ZEC, which clearly indicates they are betting on future regulatory changes.

181% APR is an amazing figure, but I still feel that what institutions are really focused on is not this return, but rather betting on the direction of regulation.

181% APR? Is this guy joking or really going all in...
---
Before institutions buy the dip on privacy coins, the regulatory hammer hasn't come down yet, this is just gambling on rewritten rules.
---
Wait, a NASDAQ-listed company is going all-in on privacy coins directly? This operation is a bit absurd, but it does sense a change in the wind.
---
Starting to hoard privacy assets during the pre-regulatory period, who can understand this move... retail investors are still studying funding rates, while they're already playing a bigger game.
---
What’s the price now for ZEC with a cost of $245? If it slumps by 50% because of this news, it will be awkward.
---
Will the privacy coin track really become the next direction to be enforced? It feels too early to say.
---
delta-neutral arbitrage at 181%? Who would believe such returns, the risks must be hidden in some corner.
---
Big funds really aren't playing yield farming, they're just gambling on getting a position before the regulatory framework comes out.

A funding rate of 181% is really outrageous, but what are institutions hinting at... Privacy Coins might really be on the rise this time.

181.66% APR? Dude, this number is outrageous, feels like being played for suckers.
Institutions lying in ambush for Privacy Coin aren’t just for yield farming, they must be betting on regulatory changes.
If the EU really enforces privacy solutions, Zec does have a chance... but it could also be banned.
Large Investors have already entered a position while we are still hesitating, typical hindsight.
Before the regulatory night, every sector is like this; by the time I react, I've already been harvested.
Front-running regulation... easy to say, but the risks are also front-running.
This logic is sound, but timing is tricky; who knows when things will really change?

Oh no, institutions are starting to buy the dip on Privacy Coins, while retail investors are still there hesitating about what to do.
