Grayscale Files for First Zcash Spot ETF
Grayscale submitted the first application for a Zcash spot ETF on May 8.ZEC’s price once touched $600, pushing its market cap into the top 15 and surpassing Cardano. Multicoin Capital co-founder Tushar Jain noted that this move is driven by growing demand for privacy assets amid U.S. wealth tax legislative proposals. The SEC concluded its review of Zcash in January 2026 without taking enforcement action. Data shows that approximately 30% of ZEC’s supply is held in shielded addresses. Last week, U.S. Bitcoin spot ETFs saw $268 million in outflows, with some capital rotating into privacy and AI infrastructure tokens.

Additionally, following integration with Near Intents, users can now cross-chain swap BTC, SOL, USDC, and other assets for shielded ZEC; since launch, these channels have processed approximately $600 million to $700 million in volume, and the shielded pool currently accounts for roughly 30% of the circulating ZEC supply.
