$ZEC is still holding up better than much of the altcoin market, but the chart is approaching a decision point.
ZEC is around $505, up about 4.6% over 7 days, while recent data shows buyers defending the $490–$500 area. The immediate resistance sits around $520–$530.
What makes this interesting is the fresh fundamental backdrop: Cypherpunk reportedly acquired control of about 18% of Zcash’s network hashrate, with financing involving Winklevoss Capital.
Trade setup I’m watching:
• Trigger: $530 breakout + volume confirmation
• Target 1: $550
• Target 2: $570
• Invalidation: $490
• Approx. R:R to T2: ~1.5R
Bull case: $530 flips into support with stronger volume → $550–$570 becomes the next area to watch.
Bear case: rejection below $520 followed by a clean loss of $490 → the setup weakens, with $470–$475 becoming the next support zone.
I wouldn't chase ZEC in the middle of the range. For me, $530 is the confirmation level and $490 is the line that changes the setup.
