Just three months back the FUD around Zcash (ZEC) went feral when a weakness in its Orchard privacy pool flipped everything upside down and sparked major uneasy vibes 🖤. The protocol fixed that flaw fast and its super private setup turned ZEC into the top gainer in big cap alts over the last quarter 💀.

The Epic Surge 🌙

Remember how Zcash creator Zooko Wilcox and the Shielded Labs crew dropped the news that someone could spam fake ZEC in the Orchard shielded zone without instant detection? By the time it went public the bug was already patched yet it prompted big voices like Arthur Hayes to dump their bags over fresh worries. The token cratered from $650 straight to $260 in a single day amid the panic waves 😈. Then the reversal hit hard with ZEC steadying near $500 for weeks before the August 19 market pump pushed it to $900 and then a fresh peak past $1,200 today for the first time in nearly a decade 🕸️. That is a 370% rocket since the early June bottom and the market cap just cleared $20 billion overtaking HYPE and DOGE.

Data from CoinGlass shows the wild 24 hour pump triggered $46 million in short liquidations topping every other coin 🌑.

Fuel Behind The Moonshot & Ahead 🦇

Right after the mid August lift Grayscale launched its Zcash ETF on August 25 pulling in $34.4 million of fresh inflows already. The bigger question is not if Zcash keeps running but whether the ETF wave opens fresh paths for money to flow into previously slept on crypto plays ZEC might be the first big test of that idea 🕷️. Meanwhile one major whale accumulated 22,840 ZEC for roughly $1.1 million from 2022 to 2024 and watched it balloon to $23 million before moving the whole stack to Binance possibly to exit. Crypto Patel spotted a Beautiful Cup & Handle Pattern on the weekly chart noting the break above the neckline could send it toward $2,200 next.

As Per $ZEC Chart you can see a Beautiful Cup & Handle Pattern formed on the Weekly Timeframe. @Zcash has already broken the Neckline/Resistance of this pattern and if the pattern follows the 100% target the target could be around $2,200.

No doubt Cup & Handle is a strong… pic.twitter.com/Eys4EivIHQ

Bitcoin spot etfs pulled in nearly 1 billion dollars over the past week even after that 236 million dollar outflow hit on September 1. Ethereum funds stayed firmly in the green too with inflows beating outflows for eight of the last nine weeks.

Btc Etfs Snag Another Billion Dollar Haul 👀

The prior trading week wrapped with a 201.81 million dollar net outflow from spot btc etfs but four strong inflow days more than made up for that friday dip. Overall the week landed a sweet 924.48 million dollar net gain after building on the earlier 1.92 billion dollar surge. August closed out at 216.70 million dollars positive before the 236.46 million dollar slip on September 1. Flows flipped positive again with 101.15 million dollars on Wednesday and 174.60 million dollars on Friday while Thursday popped off with 730.87 million dollars the biggest single day since January. Total weekly inflows hit 986.85 million dollars pushing cumulative net inflows to 55.62 billion dollars after they dipped to 51.79 billion dollars mid august. Blackrock’s ibit keeps leading with over 62.6 billion dollars in cumulative assets followed by fidelity’s fbtc at 14.07 million dollars and grayscale’s gbtc at 10.36 billion dollars.

Eth Etfs Keep Their Winning Streak Alive 🖤

Even with smaller scale the spot ethereum etfs outperformed over recent weeks racking up just one modest red week since early July. They grabbed 824.42 million dollars the week ending August 28 then added 218.41 million dollars in the first week of September. Thursday led with 141.39 million dollars more incoming while Monday brought 87.68 million dollars Tuesday 10.95 million dollars and Friday 26.46 million dollars though Wednesday saw a 48.08 million dollar dip. Cumulative net inflows jumped from 10.89 billion dollars in early July to 13.19 billion dollars by September 4.

XRP etfs keep stacking those green weeks but some sus vibes are creeping back in. 🖤
The spot xrp etfs just wrapped their eighth straight week in the green pulling nearly 19 million but that haul looks kinda tame next to last week’s bigger numbers. Friday turned into a total no inflow day for the first time in three weeks which has ppl questioning if the demand is really there.

Xrp etfs still stacking wins 💀

Last week wrapped august strong with over 110 million flowing in making it the hottest stretch since early december 2025. Things cooled on august 31 with just 5.64 million coming through then bounced back to 14.38 million on september 1 before flipping red with 7.20 million out on wednesday breaking that long green streak. Thursday saw 6.14 million returned but friday hit zero across the board pushing the all time cumulative inflows to a fresh 1.68 billion high. The mixed signals are real tho with those outflows and zero days sparking old worries that faded during the recent pump. Still the full week netted almost 19 million and the green streak hits eight now.

Xrp holding the 1.40 line strong 🌙

Even after that 110 million surge last week the price couldnt break above the 1.40 zone and dipped to 1.33 midweek before clawing back to 1.45 on friday then settling at 1.41 which keeps it safely over support. Analysts are calling the bull phase officially started with wild calls like 60 from names such as ali martinez and egrag crypto but the real hurdles ahead need checking out in fresh takes.

ETH is lowkey trying to find its footing after that wild August pump but the follow through feels kinda meh rn. It’s chilling near $2.5K with these endless range swings showing the market’s just soaking up the gains instead of starting a fresh trend. 💅

ETH Daily Vibes Chart 🖤

The bigger picture looks pretty solid after blasting out of that $1.85K-$1.92K zone. Momentum’s just stuck in the $2.44K-$2.52K resistance though with several candles poking at it and not holding a breakout while wicks keep hinting at total indecision. Price sits near $2.5K right now up in the top half of the range.

A solid daily break past around $2.52K-$2.56K would flip the script and let buyers take the wheel for another leg up. Till then expect more of this sideways munch. Losing $2.39K-$2.44K on the flip side would mess up the setup and open doors to a deeper dip where $2.08K-$2.15K turns into key medium term support.

4H Range Trap Tea 🦇

On the smaller timeframe ETH is boxed between roughly $2.35K and $2.56K after ripping from under $2K. Buyers keep defending the lower edge tho with the bounce from $2.38K pushing it back toward $2.5K and right into resistance again. Past tries around $2.5K-$2.55K have all fizzled so another rejection keeps the chop alive.

A drop under the $2.35K-$2.39K floor would hit harder and expose $2.22K-$2.27K as the next pullback zone while acceptance above $2.52K-$2.56K would kill the range play and signal buyers are back in control for the bigger bullish move.

Whale Order Size Check 🔮

Spot average order size data shows why there’s no real follow through lately. Around $2.4K-$2.5K it’s mostly gray normal sized spots and those green whale prints from earlier in the rally have ghosted completely. No big player energy backing this $2.5K push and zero retail pile up either so neither side is going aggressive.

That missing whale flow matches the choppy price perfectly and without serious demand or supply ETH stays stuck in low conviction wiggles inside the range. Fresh big whale orders popping up would be the signal this consolidation is finally cracking one way or the other. 🕸️🌙
