Zcash ($ZEC $BNB $BTC ) Update – Feb 14, 2026

The privacy pioneer is having a massive Valentine's Day breakout! đŸ›ĄïžđŸš€

* Current Price: ~$281.80 (+19.5% in 24h)

* Trend: Aggressive Bullish Move. ZEC has just reclaimed its position in the Top 25 market cap rankings, currently sitting at #21. It’s significantly outperforming the broader market today.

* Key Catalyst: Privacy coins are seeing a massive "regulatory rotation" following the EU's DAC8 directive. Shielded transaction adoption is also at an all-time high, now accounting for 20% of network activity.

* Technical Levels:

* Resistance: $300 (Psychological hurdle) and $348 (January's peak).

* Support: $230 – $240 (Solid base formed over the last week).

* Sentiment: "Strong Buy." Trading volume is up over 300% today as institutional interest in zero-knowledge (ZK) tech moves from theory to price action.

The Verdict: ZEC has finally woken up. If it flips $300 into support tonight, the "Privacy Summer" of 2026 could see this heading toward its next major target of $450.
