Grayscale: Zcash is still undervalued

2026-08-30 05:37:49

The privacy-focused cryptocurrency Zcash has increased approximately 19 times in the past year, but its market capitalization is still less than 1% of Bitcoin. Digital asset management company Grayscale states that financial privacy, cybersecurity development, and cross-chain connectivity capabilities may drive Zcash to further expand its market share. As of today, Bitcoin's market capitalization is $1.56 trillion, while Zcash's market capitalization is $13.74 billion, about 0.88% of Bitcoin's, with Bitcoin's market cap being approximately 114 times that of Zcash.

Grayscale estimates that if ZEC reaches 2%, 5%, and 10% of Bitcoin's market capitalization, the corresponding prices would be $1,622, $4,054, and $8,109, respectively; these scenarios are not price predictions. Grayscale's Zcash ETF began trading on NYSE Arca under the ticker ZCSH, moving from OTCQX to NYSE Arca, providing investors with spot ZEC exposure without the need to directly purchase tokens or manage wallets and private keys. Zcash uses proof-of-work and has a fixed supply of 21 million coins, supporting the concealment of transaction details through zero-knowledge proofs. Its intents technology can coordinate cross-chain transactions based on user goals, such as exchanging other digital assets for ZEC.
