zec up 45.48% this week hit 1,215 on my chart privacy coin market cap has now surpassed dogecoin
let that sink in for a second
zec was sitting around 16 dollars during its 2024 lows
it just went up over 6,300% from that low pushing its market cap toward 17 billion enough to knock dogecoin clean out of the top 10 cryptocurrencies by market cap
the catalyst grayscale converted their old zcash trust into an actual spot etf on nyse arca back on august 25 the first ever us regulated etf tracking a privacy coin
that gave institutions a legal regulated way to get zec exposure without touching a wallet and the response was immediate
here's why this milestone actually matters beyond the number
dogecoin got to the top 10 on meme energy and elon musk tweets no supply cap no privacy tech no institutional thesis
zec has a hard 21 million coin cap identical to bitcoin real privacy tech and now an actual regulated etf wrapper
the market just chose utility and scarcity over pure virality even if only for a moment
shorts got absolutely destroyed on the way up too over 34 million in short positions got force liquidated as price smashed through 1,000
privacy coins went from the most ignored corner of this market to literally outranking one of the most recognized names in crypto in about two weeks
this is one of the wildest comebacks i've seen in this entire space
