Cobo co-founder and CEO Shenyu said he has retained a strong negative memory of ZEC since its 2016 mainnet launch. He noted that BitMEX set a 10 BTC price ceiling for ZEC at launch, which became the token’s historical high. Shenyu said that shortly after mining began on launch night, the transformer at his GPU mining farm was struck by lightning. He added that ZEC has not appeared in his personal wallet since then.
