15-minute candlestick chart for the ZEC/USDT perpetual contract. The latest price is 1097.19 USDT, down 2.55% over the past 24 hours, with a 24-hour low of 1076 USDT. The market has recently shown a short-term downward trend.
Key factors influencing the future price trend
Short-term bearish pressures: A vulnerability that could have allowed ZEC to be minted without limit was previously disclosed. Although the vulnerability has been technically fixed, investor confidence has yet to fully recover. Several exchanges have also suspended deposits and withdrawals, adding to short-term liquidity pressures and leaving room for further declines.
Medium-term support factors: The Grayscale ZEC ETF has launched, which could support long-term inflows from institutional investors. In addition, the NU7 upgrade is expected in November, reducing block times from 75 seconds to 25 seconds and significantly improving the efficiency of private transactions. If the upgrade is delivered as expected, it could help prices recover.
Key technical levels: Short-term support is at the 1000 USDT psychological level. A decisive break below it would open the door to further downside. Resistance is at 1200 USDT; the uptrend could resume only after the price holds above this level.
$ZEC
Short-term outlook
ZEC is currently testing bottom support repeatedly within the 1036–1162 US dollar range, showing clear signs of weakness. Without new capital inflows, it is likely to continue trading sideways in the short term. Watch for the NU7 mainnet upgrade scheduled for October 20.
