Grayscale said Zcash’s market value reached 1.5% of Bitcoin’s market cap over the past year, up from below 0.1%. The same coverage also ties that move to a broader discussion of privacy features in crypto and notes that Zcash still faces regulatory and volatility risks. Another report says ZEC rose from $60 to $1,500 and frames that as leaving room for further market-share gains.

What it means
Users and traders watching privacy coins see Zcash in a stronger market position today than it had a year earlier, with one report saying its market cap is now 1.5% of Bitcoin’s. That leaves the privacy-focused part of the sector more visible tomorrow morning, while the same coverage also keeps regulatory risk and volatility in view.
