Privacy coins Zcash and Monero outperformed the market’s largest assets over the last 24 hours while Bitcoin and Ethereum remained flat. Zcash has gained over 700% year-to-date in 2026, hitting an all-time high near $1,699 on September 26 before pulling back. Monero trades around $560, showing positive yearly gains but still below its January 2026 peak of approximately $801. The privacy coin sector added roughly $24.5 billion in market capitalization over five months. Grayscale’s ZCSH ETF, launched in August 2026, gave Zcash a structural advantage but recent redemptions have accompanied the price retreat.
