In the midst of a generally dismal market environment, some have used the opportunity to draw attention to continued parallels between 2021 and earlier bull-market periods.

With Zcash (ZEC) being the most notable outlier among major tokens following comments made on Twitter by Barry Silbert, the founder and CEO of investment company Digital Currency Group, the cryptocurrency experienced a 26 percent rise following his comments.
