ZEC surges above $350 as rally continues
ZEC, the native coin of the ZCash ecosystem, has continued its rally, up 12% in the last 24 hours. The rally comes after the coin added 380% to its value in the last 30 days, outperforming other major cryptocurrencies.
The positive performance comes after Solana, the world’s second-largest smart contract platform, launched wrapped ZEC via the Zolana bridge. The wrapped tokens function as standard Solana Program Library (SPL) tokens. Hence, they don’t offer the privacy protections inherent to native Zcash.
Furthermore, they are backed 1:1 by native ZEC but do not conceal balances or transaction data.
ZEC targets $400 as bullish trend continues
The ZEC/USD 4-hour chart is bullish and efficient thanks to the coin’s ongoing rally. The technical indicators are bullish, suggesting that buyers are currently in control. The bullish trend could see ZEC’s price surge higher in the near term.
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) of 67 shows a bullish bias, with the buyers currently in control. The MACD lines are also within the positive region, suggesting that the price could surge higher in the near term.
If the bullish trend continues, ZEC could rally towards the $400 level over the next few hours or days. An extended bullish run would allow ZEC to hit a multi-year high of $500 in the coming days or weeks.
However, if ZEC faces a correction following its recent run, it could retrace to the ILQ at $318 over the next few hours. Further downtrend could see ZEC drop to the major support and TLQ level at $235. This support level will likely hold in the medium term, allowing ZEC to build on its recent run.
