🚹 Zcash is outperforming the market again. $ZEC climbed nearly 5% to $1,280, beating Bitcoin and Ethereum as a short squeeze forced bearish traders out of their positions. 📊 $4.91M in liquidations, with $3.87M from shorts. But the bigger catalyst could be ahead. Zcash's upcoming NU7 upgrade targets block times of just 25 seconds, down from 75 seconds, potentially making transactions faster. Testnet is already live, with developers expected to decide on October 20 whether the November 5 mainnet launch can proceed. Short squeeze today. Network upgrade next. Can ZEC keep its momentum going? ï»ż#Altcoin Season#
