Dash is up 80% in the last week, reaching levels never seen before this year.
Zcash completed a 15% increase in the last seven days.
The sector of privacy cryptocurrencies such as Zcah (ZEC) and Dash (DASH) is experiencing a notable rise by skyrocketing its market capitalization by 6.8% in the last 24 hours. Therefore, it now reaches 24 billion dollars. This is a demonstration that investors are seeking refuge in assets with private transactions, fueling a significant rally.
Zcash soared 30% this week, reaching $420 per unit this November 2, 2025although at the time of writing this note, the price of the cryptocurrency is around $382, marking a decline in the last few hours, as reflects Coingecko.
Its market capitalization climbed to $7 billion on November 1, surpassing monero (XMR), which did not climb beyond $6.6 billion. This boost responds to record demand for private transactions, which have grown sevenfold since September.
The community’s attention at the moment is focused on Electric Coin Co. (ECC), creator of Zcash, which has revealed its roadmap for the fourth quarter of 2025.
This roadmap includes the use of temporary addresses to improve private exchanges and fixes for Keystone hardware wallet users. These advances seek to optimize the privacy and usability of Zashiyour native wallet. “This quarter, ECC’s focus is on reducing technical debt, improving privacy and usability for Zashi users,” the company stated.
Furthermore, the resurgence of interest is clearly reflected in Google Trends. The term Dash (DASH) has reached a record level of searches. A trend that can be interpreted as a direct response to growing surveillance and increasing regulatory demands at a global level. As a sign of this, there is the fact that the digital euro threatens to become a digital surveillance tool and unprecedented control, as reported by CriptoNoticias.
Dash skyrocketed 80% in one week
Dash climbed 21% in 24 hours, trading at $55. This while its weekly gains are around 80%, eclipsing the general market. Although it must be taken into account that the label privacy cryptocurrency for Dash is not appropriate, as Ryan Taylor, CEO of Dash Core Group, has mentioned.
Dash’s on-chain activity during 2025 reflects robust bullish sentiment, with a significant increase in the number of active addresses on the network, indicating greater user participation.
Daily trading volume has rebounded, reaching peaks above $600 million in October, reinforcing the more than 80% rally in price.
After all, the question that remains is whether Privacy-Focused Cryptocurrencies May Maintain Momentum. While zach’s privacy technology and the rise in Shielded Pool usage are positive signs, the growth appears driven, in part, by speculation and the influence of opinion leaders on networks like X.
Bruno Vaccotti, founder of the Paraguayan Chamber of Digital Asset Mining, commented on this to CriptoNoticias. He warns that cryptocurrencies, including those like zcash, often suffer from their reliance on narratives and strategic partnerships that do not withstand market pressure. “On green days, everything is ‘innovation’; on red days, everything is ‘manipulation’, according to the interests of the parties,” he points out.
