Zcash Surges Over 25% As Ceasefire Risk-On Trade Erupts

$ZEC is one of the biggest movers of the night, exploding over 25% as the global risk-on wave from Trump's Iran ceasefire announcement tears through crypto markets.

Privacy coins are catching a bid. Japan up 5%. $XRP at $1.39. $BTC pushing higher. And ZEC is outperforming nearly everything in the market right now.

$ZEC has been one of the most beaten-down assets of 2026. A 25% single-session move in a risk-on environment suggests serious short covering and sidelined capital rushing back in.

Watch $1.60 on XRP, $70K on Bitcoin, and keep an eye on whether ZEC holds these gains once the dust settles.
