Why Arthur Hayes Likes Zcash and Predicts Its Price Growth
- Despite the fact that last year’s prediction by Arthur Hayes about Zcash reaching $10,000 did not materialize, he continues to believe in the potential of $ZEC.
- Hayes is confident that pressure from tech companies and artificial intelligence, which can deanonymize transactions, is pushing users toward privacy-focused cryptocurrencies like Zcash.
With the renewed bullish trend in the Zcash ($ZEC) market, it is worth examining why Arthur Hayes favors this cryptocurrency and why he predicts its growth.
In October 2025, Happy Coin News reported that Hayes had forecast Zcash to reach $10,000. Currently, the cryptocurrency is priced at only $372, but Arthur remains optimistic and believes in the strong potential of the digital asset.
“If you want to remain anonymous, especially in the age of big tech companies, governments, and AI that can deanonymize transactions and identify wallet owners, you should use a tool like Zcash. I believe $ZEC represents the best form of anonymity,” Hayes said in a recent interview.
In other words, Arthur values Zcash for its ability to preserve data privacy. This feature attracts not only Hayes but also a growing number of users who seek anonymity, which explains the bullish outlook for the coin. Supporting this, as of April 10, assets worth $1.9 billion are shielded within the Zcash blockchain.

Hayes has stopped predicting short-term price fluctuations, but according to the RSI indicator on the daily chart, which is in the overbought zone, the coin’s price may decline soon. Considering the rebound from the 50% Fibonacci level, it can be assumed that Zcash may drop to the 61.8% Fibonacci level at $307. This implies a potential decline of about 18% from the current price.
