$ZEC just dropped to ∼$983. Down -14% today.

From ATH $1,697 in September to $983 now = -42%.

And still... is up +122% in 1 year.

So is this the end? Or the discount?

Listen:

1. What is Zcash?

Bitcoin with privacy. Same max supply as Bitcoin — 21 MILLION coins only. But with zero-knowledge proofs, your sender, receiver and amount can be hidden. In 2026, privacy is not a crime. Privacy is a FEATURE.

2. Why did it pump to $1,697?

- Grayscale launched Zcash ETF $ZCSH on NYSE — first US spot Zcash ETF

- Wall Street is literally advertising Zcash in the Wall Street Journal now

- NU7 upgrade just went LIVE — blocks now 3x faster, 75 sec → 25 sec

- Next halving: November 2028 — less new supply coming

3. Why is it dumping now?

Because it went from $200 in March → $1,697 in September. That's +748% in 6 months.

Of course people are taking profit. Of course shorts are attacking.

This is not a dead coin. This is a coin taking a breath after a monster run.

My levels I am watching:

Support: $1,045 → $1,030 → $1,000

If $1,000 breaks, next is $750.

Resistance: $1,200 → $1,370 → $1,500 → $1,697 ATH

If $ZEC closes back above $1,045 today, the bounce is real.

If it stays below $1,000, don't catch a falling knife.

My plan: I don't chase. I wait. I buy fear, not green candles.

Be honest in comments, no lie:

A = I bought $ZEC above $1,400 and I'm holding pain

B = I sold at profit and I'm waiting to re-enter

C = I never bought $ZEC, I'm watching

D = I think privacy coins are the next big narrative
