Zcash marks 10th anniversary as why it gained presence in 2026
Privacy-focused cryptocurrency Zcash (ZEC) is drawing renewed attention on its 10th anniversary, reflecting its history of technical development and a recent rise in price. It has carried out 10 major network upgrades since its October 2016 launch to improve shielded transactions and usability, including Sapling, Blossom and NU5. ZEC rallied from a $400 to $550 range to near $1,700, then pulled back. Analysts cited $1,200 support and $1,370 resistance.
