The Zcash (ZEC) token has surged 63% in a week, pushing its market capitalization to $10.6 billion and cementing its position as the 12th-largest crypto asset. The token leads the broader rally in privacy-focused cryptocurrencies, driven by growing demand for anonymity.
The price of Zcash, a cryptocurrency that preserves user anonymity, has surged by 240% over the past month, surpassing $500. Analysts at CoinDesk Research have identified several key reasons behind the coin’s rally.
ZEC market capitalization surpasses $10 billion for the first time, placing it 13th among the largest cryptocurrencies. The price of Zcash (ZEC) has reached a new high since January 2018. For the first time in nearly eight years, the coin’s value climbed above $600. Over the past 24 hours, it rose 22%, and since the start of autumn — 1,400% (from $41 to $629).
October 2025 failed to live up to its reputation as one of the most favorable months for the crypto market. Over the past 30 days, most digital assets came under significant selling pressure, largely driven by geopolitical instability across global markets.
Over the past 24 hours, the cryptocurrency Zcash (ZEC) has surged by 20.6%. As of writing, ZEC is trading around $520, marking its highest level since 2018.
Galaxy Digital has pointed to the growing popularity of the privacy-focused cryptocurrency among users concerned about Bitcoin’s increasing centralization due to major Wall Street funds and heightened government surveillance of transactions.
Zcash (ZEC) has become one of the standout stars of the digital asset market, and despite its powerful surge, it might still be a good investment opportunity.
