$XMR and $ZEC proved one thing early.
Money needs sovereignty. Ownership matters.

Tria shows what comes after that.

Privacy coins exposed why custody, permissions, and middlemen break trust. They solved control. What they never solved was how money actually functions when people need to use it every day.

Daily payments. Cross-border movement. Reliable execution at scale.

That’s where the cracks appeared.

Once value had to move repeatedly and predictably, ideology wasn’t enough. Infrastructure had to show up.

Coinbase adding Tria (TRIA) to its roadmap is a signal that this layer has become unavoidable.

Tria is built for the moment assets leave theory and enter real life. Value routes across chains. Custody stays with the user. Spending and settlement behave consistently instead of breaking under edge cases.

This is the missing link between control and usability.

XMR and ZEC showed why ownership matters.
Tria is about making that ownership survive real usage.

When execution works without forcing custody trade-offs, crypto stops being an idea and starts acting like financial infrastructure.
