Zcash Breaks Free From Bitcoin With Negative Correlation

[AIcash]

Zcash is displaying a rare trait in today’s market: negative correlation with Bitcoin. While BTC swings sharply, ZEC often moves in the opposite direction or holds steady.
DeFiLlama data confirms this decoupling, signaling ZEC is driven by its own fundamentals — particularly growing interest in privacy-focused assets. In a market dominated by BTC-led sentiment, Zcash’s independence is positioning it as a hedge for investors seeking non-Bitcoin-aligned performance.
