is having a *midlife crisis* and decided to break free from its eight-year downtrend like it’s exorcising a Bitcoin demon. Up 70% in a month? Yikes, who needs consistency when you can just shock everyone? 🚀
TraderButWhy, the X account that’s basically crypto’s agony aunt, dropped a bomb on Sept. 29: ZEC/BTC just left its logarithmic descending channel since 2017. That’s like saying your grandma finally learned TikTok dances-surprising, chaotic, and slightly concerning. The trader also called Zcash a “problem child” who’s hurt him “far too many times.” Classic drama queen energy. 🧥

kingpin, is now Zcash’s biggest cheerleader. Who knew privacy coins could be this… *dramatic*? TraderButWhy’s theory? Mert’s hype might’ve lit a fire under ZEC’s performance. Or maybe Zcash just got tired of being the crypto equivalent of that friend who never shows up on time. 🕵️♂️
Some folks still think Zcash is a “late-stage cyclical phenomenon”-read: a coin that only shines when the bull market’s about to crash. But Mert’s shouting, “This time is different!” (Spoiler: It never is. But hey, at least he’s *enthusiastic*.)
Zcash’s upgrades over nine years? Let’s just say it’s like getting a spa day for your code. No more “trusted setup” nonsense for the Orchard Pool, thanks to Halo 2. Shielding Zcash? It’s like dropping your cash into a 4-million-liter lake and hoping no one notices you’re holding a tiny encrypted note that says, “Hey, this water’s mine.” 🛡️
🛡️ Shielding Zcash is like:
> You own 1L of water, everyone can see you carrying it around
> Drop the 1L into a 4 million liters lake, full fungibility
> Get a fully encrypted note that says you own 1L
> Only you hold the keys to decrypt this note

Data from CoinMarketCap says ZEC is now $67.66 after a brief “I’m fine, why do you ask?” dip to $71. That’s a 69.5% gain in a month and 130% in a year. Impressive, until you realize it’s still 76th largest crypto. Priorities, Zcash! 📈

, ZEC is trading at 0.0006072 BTC. If it stays above that eight-year downtrend line by Sept. 30, it’ll confirm the breakout. Meanwhile, “privacy coins” are trending on Google like avocado toast in 2018. CoinMarketCap’s probably rolling in dough from all this chaos. 💸
