Zcash $1,332: the only weekly gain in the top ten

Zcash costs around $1,332 on Monday morning, a good eight percent more than 24 hours earlier. The remarkable part is not the daily gain but the company it keeps: among the ten largest cryptocurrencies by market capitalisation, Zcash is the only one in positive territory over seven days. Bitcoin has given up 2.6 percent in the same week, Ether 5.9 percent and Solana 7.1 percent.

Holders in Germany face two dates and one deadline that have nothing to do with the price. On October 20 the Zcash developers decide when the NU7 network upgrade takes effect on the main net. November 5 is the date in the air. And anyone still holding a balance in the network's oldest shielded pool has to move it beforehand, otherwise it can no longer be spent afterwards. This article places the price level in context, shows the count behind it and names the points that matter before the two dates.

Zcash at $1,332: daily high $1,348, daily low $1,262

The price stood at $1,332 on October 12, 2026. The day opened at $1,275, the high of the past 24 hours is $1,348 and the low $1,221. The range of a single day therefore comes to roughly $127, about a tenth of the price. A tight limit order easily misses in a market like this.
