Hold onto your wallets, folks-Zcash has just broken through the $10.3 billion market cap barrier, making it the second-largest crypto in Arthur Hayes’ family office. Yes, you heard that right. Zcash! The coin you might have forgotten existed, now sitting pretty next to Bitcoin. 🤑
The Zcash price rally has been nothing short of legendary. It’s like that one underdog movie where the awkward kid suddenly becomes the prom king. Arthur Hayes, who you may know as the co-founder of BitMEX and CIO of Maelstrom (his super elite family office, not a band name, unfortunately), dropped the knowledge bomb on November 7 through X (formerly Twitter, but we know no one calls it that). According to him, Zcash’s meteoric rise has it sitting in second place in Maelstrom’s largest crypto holdings. Take that, other coins! 😎
Zcash Price Rockets to New Heights, and It’s All About Privacy, Baby!
Hayes, who has made a name for himself in the crypto world by… well, being Arthur Hayes, took to social media to confirm Zcash’s massive growth. He casually mentioned that $ZEC is now the second-largest liquid holding in Maelstrom. And by “liquid,” he means cool, hard crypto cash-coming in just behind Bitcoin. Talk about a VIP status! 🏆
The Zcash train just kept on chugging. After hitting $656, the altcoin reached an all-time high on Friday. That’s right, $656! And now, it’s riding higher than a caffeine-fueled crypto trader on a Monday morning. Zcash set a new price record since 2018 and is boasting an impressive 63% gain in the past week, while the rest of the market is doing… well, let’s just say it’s not looking so good for them. 😬
In the world of crypto, where things can get uglier than a 5 a.m. Zoom call, Zcash is out here showing everyone who’s boss. Privacy tokens are clearly the thing right now, and Zcash is leading the charge with an “I’m too cool for school” swagger. 🦸♀️

Market Cap Blows Up to $10 Billion, and Zcash Ain’t Stopping Anytime Soon
According to CoinMarketCap (because who trusts anyone else?), Zcash hit a $655 peak on Friday, which boosted its market cap to a sweet $10.6 billion. Then, as if Zcash was just too cool to stay still, the price dropped a little to $632. But guess what? It’s still got a market cap of $10.3 billion, making it the 12th largest crypto on the block. 🍾
This little rally placed Zcash firmly in the top 20 cryptos by market cap-because apparently, breaking into the top 10 is for amateurs. Institutional demand is surging for this privacy powerhouse, and the impending Zcash halving is only adding fuel to the fire. 🏁
Let’s put it this way: Zcash’s price explosion isn’t just some passing fad. The cryptocurrency has grown by more than 400% since October 2025. That’s not just a rally. That’s a rocket launch 🚀. The privacy narrative is gaining serious momentum with the big money, so don’t be surprised when you start seeing privacy coins everywhere-your grandma might even start talking about them (well, maybe not her, but you get the point). 👵💰
Hayes’ Family Office Seals the Deal on Zcash’s Big Win
Arthur Hayes and his family office Maelstrom (because what else do you name a crypto empire?) have officially made it clear that Zcash is their second-largest asset. In case you missed it, that’s a big deal. Like, “I’m-so-impressed-I’m-wearing-sunglasses-inside” big. 😎
Right now, Zcash is living its best life above the $10 billion mark. It’s broken through the $600 barrier with the kind of sharp upward movement that makes all those “I wish I had bought earlier” folks go, “Oh, I did that thing again where I didn’t buy.” 🙄
The price explosion and institutional adoption are real, and it looks like Maelstrom is sitting pretty with Zcash in their portfolio. Hayes’ confirmation speaks volumes about where the big money is headed. Zcash’s rise to a $10.3 billion market cap isn’t just some short-lived excitement; it’s a moment in privacy-focused crypto history. This is the time for privacy assets, and Zcash is leading the charge, one cryptographic transaction at a time. 📈🚀
