$ZEC has surged significantly in 2025: recently it re-entered the crypto top-20 by market cap and — for the first time in almost seven years — traded above $600.
The rally seems driven by renewed interest in privacy-oriented assets, technical upgrades from the development team, and rising adoption of wallets (like the default-shielded wallet Zashi) that make shielded transactions easier.
Trading volume and liquidity have deepened: daily trading volume reportedly jumped, futures activity increased, indicating both retail and institutional participation.
According to recent technical-analysis forecasts, trend indicators lean bullish: some analyses see potential for further upside, given current momentum and market structure.
