The post Zcash price prediction 2026-2030: the privacy renaissance test appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Zcash (ZEC) hit $642.18 on May 9, 2026, marking the peak of a 650-1,000% rally from 2024 lows that crowned it the largest privacy coin by market cap, overtaking Monero. The catalysts driving this performance are different in kind from previous Zcash cycles. Grayscale filed Form S-3 to convert its Zcash Trust into the first US spot privacy coin ETF (ticker ZCSH) on NYSE Arca on May 12, 2026. The SEC closed its nearly two-year investigation into the Zcash Foundation on January 15, 2026, without enforcement action, removing the regulatory overhang that suppressed institutional participation for years. Summary Zcash’s May 2026 rally to $642 was tied to Grayscale’s ETF filing, SEC clearance, Multicoin Capital’s position, and shielded pool growth. The bull case sees ZEC reaching $800 to $1,800 by 2030 if ETF approval, institutional demand, and FCMP++ deployment align. The bear case pu

The post Crypto Market Sheds $13B as Squid Loses $3.2M, Warsh Takes Fed Helm appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Crypto News The total crypto market capitalization slipped 0.51% over the past 24 hours, shedding roughly $13 billion and dropping to $2.54 trillion as risk capital continued rotating toward US equities. Bitcoin traded at $76,786, down 0.60% and pinned just above a key technical level, while Zcash led the downside with a 4.25% drop to $624 on lighter sell volume than recent sessions. The print rests directly on the 0.382 Fibonacci level at $2.53 trillion, drawn from the late-March low to the early-May peak. Memorial Day kept US stocks shut on Monday, but Friday’s S&P 500 close at 7,473.47 carried risk-off momentum through Asia and into the European session. Commonwealth Bank of Australia chief executive Matt Comyn warned that artificial intelligence will reshape work across the broader economy, cautioning that downplaying the technology’s impact on jobs offers no protection
The post Trader Linked To ’10/10 Whale’ Down $128M Overall—Now Shorting ZEC On Hyperliquid appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Few market stories expose the brutality of concentrated leverage quite like a whale moving from nine-figure profits to a nine-figure hole. On-chain analytics firm Bubblemaps has identified a trader, Garrett Jin, as the address behind the so-called “10/10 whale”—a wallet that once seemed untouchable. According to the original report, Jin would have been up over $70 million had he never touched ETH. Instead, his overall PnL now sits at negative $128 million. The numbers are staggering not because they represent a slow bleed, but because they came after a legendary run. The wallet initially made headlines shorting Bitcoin with near-perfect timing, netting roughly $100 million. Then, a pivot to leveraged ETH longs unraveled most of those gains. Bubblemaps estimates the Ethereum losses alone exceeded $200 million. A Pattern of Extremes The whale’s trajectory mirror

Hyperliquid’s HYPE token has narrowly overtaken Dogecoin by market capitalization on CoinMarketCap. The move came after HYPE pushed to a fresh all-time high above $64 on May 24, while Dogecoin remained near $0.10. The margin is thin, and rankings remain sensitive to price feeds and circulating-supply methodology. CoinMarketCap data showed Hyperliquid with a market capitalization of about $16.03 billion, 24-hour volume of $1.11 billion, an FDV near $60.08 billion and a circulating supply of 254.07 million HYPE. Dogecoin, by comparison, was listed with a live market cap of about $15.87 billion, 24-hour volume of roughly $591.7 million and a circulating supply of 154.38 billion DOGE. How Hyperliquid Was Able To Overtake Dogecoin That makes the flip less a clean knockout than a live-market crossing. Still, the optics are difficult to ignore. Dogecoin has long been the benchmark for meme-asset durability, surviving several market cycles on brand, community and reflexive attention. Hyperliqu
Blockchain intelligence firm Arkham Intelligence has published research revealing that it has successfully labeled more than half of all Zcash transaction activity — attributing $420 billion in volume to known individuals and institutions — a finding that strikes at the core value proposition of a cryptocurrency explicitly designed to make financial transactions invisible.
