$ZEC Today's updates for Zcash (ZEC) as of February 14, 2026:
* Price Stability: ZEC is currently trading between $230 and $245, finding solid support after a volatile month where it tested lows near $185.
* SEC Case Closed: The SEC officially concluded its multi-year investigation into the Zcash Foundation last month with no enforcement actions, clearing a massive regulatory hurdle.
* Shielded Growth: On-chain data shows shielded transactions now account for over 20% of network activity, a record high that reflects increasing privacy demand.
* Institutional Interest: Following the regulatory "all-clear," several major exchanges are reportedly considering re-listing ZEC in regions where it was previously restricted.
* Halving Impact: The network is entering its first full year since the third halving, with daily issuance at its lowest level ever (1.5625 ZEC per block).
* PoS Transition: Development continues on the shift to Proof-of-Stake, aiming to improve scalability and allow for direct staking rewards later this year.
