Comparison-

Zcash (ZEC) started the year 2019 with the value of around 57 USD to 60 USD. The coin’s variations in the price have made the investors be careful of the coin. It has shown much inconsistency over that last 100 days. However, the highest growth was achieved after 1st April market boom. It gained around 33% in just 4 days. But that momentum was lost within a week. The price variation started soon. The market cap on 22nd March was 345,960,609 USD. And the value of each coin in terms of USD and BTC was 56.29 USD and 0.01399051 BTC respectively. The current market cap is 23.6% more than the market cap of the past month. And the value in USD has increased by 19.31% in the last 30 days.

Prediction-

We predict the coin to be inconsistent in its valuation during the next quarter as well. The value may increase for some time. The resistance should be there at 75 USD. But the biggest gain is anticipated by the end of 2019. There is news about launching a hard fork of Zcash by the name Overwinter. This network upgradation will help the coin to gain value further. So, according to Zcash Price Prediction, the coin may cross 200 USD price level by the end of 2019. 2020 prediction is also bullish.

Conclusion-

Looking at the price variations, we advise the short-term investors to stay out of the Zcash coin. Long-term investors and medium-term investors will be absolutely rich with dividends when the price may become more than 3 times the current price.
