Zcash surged about 38% to over $814, surpassing its January 2018 high after nearly a decade. This rally follows Grayscale's fourth amendment filing to convert its Zcash Trust into a spot ETF on NYSE Arca, and preliminary talks by DCG International Investments to buy around 200,000 ZEC tokens worth $163 million. Zcash futures trading volume also hit $4.55 billion, reflecting strong market interest. With a $13.87 billion market cap, Zcash leads privacy coins and awaits SEC approval for the ETF transition, which could boost liquidity and price stability further.
