Zcash is trading at $461.76 against the US dollar, with the privacy-focused cryptocurrency enduring a volatile spell despite recording huge gains over the past year.
As of 29 July 2026, ZEC has slipped 1.35% in the last 24 hours, including a 0.55% dip over the past hour, underlining short-term weakness after a strong monthly run. Over the last seven days, the coin has fallen 10.11%, even though it remains 20.91% higher than it was a month ago.
The latest trading session has seen Zcash move between an intraday low of $453.10 and a high of $476.76, highlighting the tight yet unsettled range in which the token is currently operating. That trading corridor comes against a backdrop of heavier activity, with 24-hour volume reaching $208,368,698.
Market position and valuation
Zcash is currently ranked 15th among cryptocurrencies by market capitalisation, with the value of all circulating coins put at $7,753,542,883. On a fully diluted basis – assuming the maximum eventual supply of tokens is in circulation – the valuation rises slightly to $7,754,262,228.
The circulating supply of Zcash stands at 16,791,066 ZEC. That is almost the entirety of the reported total supply of 16,792,624, though still some way short of the hard-capped maximum of 21,000,000 coins.
These figures place Zcash firmly in the upper tier of digital assets by size, even as its price remains a fraction of its historical peak.
From record high to historic low
Zcash’s current level is still far below its all‐time high of $3,191.93, set on 29 October 2016 in the early days after its launch. Since then the asset has experienced repeated boom‐and‐bust cycles, culminating in an all‐time low of $16.08 recorded on 5 July 2024.
The distance between those landmarks underscores the dramatic swings that have characterised ZEC’s price history. Against that backdrop, the current price of $461.76 represents a recovery of many multiples from its 2024 trough, yet remains well down on the peaks seen a decade earlier.
Long‐term performance
Over a 12‐month period, Zcash has delivered a price increase of 1,028.09%, underlining the scale of its rebound from last year’s lows. The token has also added 20.91% in the past 30 days and 20.67% over the last 200 days, pointing to sustained, if uneven, upward momentum over medium‐term timeframes.
Those gains contrast with the more recent pullback on weekly and daily charts, leaving traders weighing up whether the latest downturn marks a pause in a broader recovery or the start of a deeper correction.
Real‐time tracking
All of these metrics – from spot price and percentage moves to volume, market capitalisation and supply data – are refreshed every minute, providing live insight into Zcash’s performance and allowing market participants to monitor shifts in sentiment as they happen.
The constant updating of ZEC statistics is intended to help investors and traders keep pace with fast‐moving conditions in the cryptocurrency market, where prices can move sharply in short periods and historical benchmarks such as all‐time highs and lows continue to frame expectations.
