Privacy coin king ZEC is back in the spotlight: it climbed from $1,055 to $1,363 in seven days, a 30% gain, before just now tumbling back to around $1,230.
There’s been plenty of action around it these past few days: the NU7 upgrade activates on November 5, cutting block times from 75 seconds to 25 seconds, while the Sprout privacy system is being retired outright—the privacy coin techies are apparently gearing up to race Solana on speed.
On Wednesday, ZEC spot ETFs saw $15 million in net inflows in a single day, a 30-day high, while futures open interest also surged to a 30-day high of $2.89 billion.
Grayscale also opened in-kind subscriptions for ZCSH, starting at $320,000—whales can exchange coins directly for shares without selling them for dollars first.
I don’t think this ZEC rally is just hype; there’s real substance behind it: the upgrade narrative and actual ETF money are driving it forward together.
But after touching $1,363, it fell back to $1,230, suggesting someone took advantage of the move to sell into strength. It needs a moment to catch its breath.
The question is: is this a healthy pullback or a sign of distribution? Would you chase ZEC at $1,230, or wait for $1,100 to get in?
