today<\/h2>\n<p>Zcash, the privacy-focused cryptocurrency launched in 2016, experienced a sharp decline on Friday.<\/p>\n<p>The token dipped to support around the $190 mark as a broader crypto market retracement ensued to see total market liquidations surpass $1 billion.<\/p>\n<p>ZEC, one of the outperformers in recent weeks, fell below the key support level of $200.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, the price declines are accompanied by rising trading volume to reinforce the profit taking.<\/p>\n<p>Per CoinMarketCap, the daily trading volume for the privacy-focused coin has jumped 26% to over $742 million.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the price has fallen nearly 20% in the same time frame.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_341863\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-341863\" class=\"wp-caption

climbed 260% over the past month, outperforming nearly all of the top 100 cryptocurrencies by market capitalisation.<\/p>\n<p>The market-wide pullback reflects broader macroeconomic factors, including renewed tensions in the US-China trade dispute and the ongoing US government shutdown.<\/p>\n<p>Investors who had recently entered Zcash appear to be taking profits after a strong rally fueled by optimism surrounding its zero-knowledge proof technology.<\/p>\n<p>Zcash has seen a notable surge in institutional interest in recent weeks.<\/p>\n<p>Grayscale\u2019s Zcash Trust has been a key driver, with assets under management exceeding $92 million \u2014 a signal of rising adoption.<\/p>\n<p>The trust allows traditional investors to gain exposure to ZEC, one of the leading privacy coins, without the operational complexities of holding the asset directly.<\/p>\n<h2>ZEC price forecast<\/h2>\n<p>Major declines across the market came as investors, spooked by the latest news from US regional banks, exited positions.<\/p>\n<p>Specifically, reports on Friday indicated that two US regional banks have hit the rocks with bad loans.<\/p>\n<p>Jitters around banking sector risks saw a sharp dump for bank stocks cascade into futures trading on Wall Street.<\/p>\n<p>A slip for the S&amp;P 500 and the Nasdaq also sent crypto nosediving.<\/p>\n<p>But Bitcoin\u2019s drop could allow
