ZCash has surged 15% in the past 24 hours, reaching $266, as the altcoin market experiences a significant rally. This price increase is supported by a $25 million funding round from Zcash Open Development Lab (ZODL), backed by Paradigm and Andreessen Horowitz, aimed at developing the Zodl wallet. The market cap of ZCash now stands at $4.5 billion, with daily trading volumes up 73% to $720 million, indicating strong bullish sentiment. The rally is further fueled by a rise in open interest, which jumped to $466 million, suggesting increased trader participation. Additionally, the broader crypto market is showing strength, with total liquidations reaching $500 million. Alongside ZCash, Hyperliquid's HYPE token also gained 6.5%, with trading volumes doubling to over $523 million. The crypto market is closely watching the Federal Reserve's upcoming rate decision, with President Trump urging for immediate rate cuts.
