Zcash has returned to focus after a sharp weekly rally pushed ZEC through key breakout levels. The move now puts the $550 resistance area and CoinCodex’s $800 projection at the center of the ZEC price prediction. ZEC Price 72% Weekly Rally Puts $550 Breakout in Focus Zcash traded near $524 after a sharp rally pushed ZEC price up 71.89% in about six days and 16 hours, according to the TradingView chart. The move started near the $320 area and accelerated after ZEC broke above $380. Buyers then pushed the price through $430, $450, and finally above $500, showing strong short-term momentum. Wise Advice said on X that the rally came as several market narratives formed around Zcash. The account pointed to Multicoin’s reported ZEC position, Robinhood listing access, Grayscale ETF speculation, and more than 30% of ZEC supply being shielded. These factors matter because new access can bring more demand, while shielded supply may reduce the amount of ZEC available for active trading. When demand rises and available supply tightens, price moves can become sharper. For now, ZEC needs to hold the $500 area to keep the breakout structure active. A move above the recent high near $550 could extend the rally. However, a drop below $500 may bring the price back toward $450 or $430. CoinCodex Shows One Month Recovery Toward $800 The CoinCodex chart shows ZEC moving from a weak March base into a stronger April recovery. The one month structure shifted after ZEC climbed out of the $200 area and formed higher moves through April. The price first moved sideways near the lower range, then started building momentum around mid-April. After that, the chart shows a stronger breakout as ZEC pushed above the earlier April range and entered a steeper upward move. ZEC Price Prediction Chart. Source: CoinCodex The dotted CoinCodex projection points to further upside toward the $800 area. This suggests the forecast expects the April recovery to continue if buying pressure stays active. However, the chart also shows that ZEC moved quickly after a long period of slower price action. That can make the next move less stable. If momentum slows, ZEC could retest its recent breakout area before trying to move higher again.
