Zcash (ZEC) has risen above the $500 resistance, reaching a local high of $545 before a slight pullback, signaling strong upward momentum. A major whale linked to karna0x closed a $9.8 million short position, incurring a $3.8 million loss as the market surged. This short squeeze led to over $11 million in short liquidations, pushing many traders to switch to long positions, with the Long/Short Ratio exceeding 1. The technical indicators suggest a modest bullish trend, with potential to test $600 resistance if buying pressure continues, though sellers remain active and a drop below $500 is possible if profit-taking increases.
