performers.<\/p>\n<p>Zcash price has <a href=\"https:\/\/coinjournal.net\/news\/dash-jumps-44-to-lead-privacy-coin-rally-as-zcash-momentum-spreads\/\">exploded<\/a> in the past month and currently sits 399% up on its low in the period.<\/p>\n<p>The gains see Zcash rank among the top weekly performers as of writing, with Virtual Protocol being the only token ahead of ZEC.<\/p>\n<p>Other top gainers over the week include Succinct, Falcon Finance, Walrus, Pump.fun, and Virtuals Protocol.<\/p>\n<p>While the gains come alongside the broader market\u2019s uptick post the latest consumer price index data report, the ZEC price is hovering at a level that could see it make a significant retest of a psychological resistance level.<\/p>\n<h2>Zcash price retests $270 level<\/h2>\n<p>The retest of $270 comes after a recent dip that followed Zcash\u2019s rally to highs near $300 on two occasions this past month.<\/p>\n<p>On October 11, 2025, ZEC outpaced Bitcoin\u2019s modest gains to highs above $298, and repeated the feat on October 21 with an uptick to above $310.<\/p>\n<p>Zcash\u2019s unique appeal through its zk-SNARK technology, which enables optional shielded transactions, has been a key driver of the bullish sentiment.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to data from the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/zkp.baby\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Zcash Dashboard<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, demand for privacy has surged in recent months. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The total value of all shielded ZEC is now hovering at an all-time high of over 4.92 million tokens, with the value of these tokens now at over $1.31 billion. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:
