Bitcoin nears $87,000, Zcash zooms 10% as U.S. bitcoin reserve bill clears committee

Bitcoin neared $87,000 as Zcash gained 10% after a House committee advanced a reserve bill and the SEC eased tokenization rules.

  • On Wednesday, Zcash rose 10% to just above $1,616, marking the largest gain among major tokens as the asset continued recent upward momentum from near $1,473.
  • The privacy coin sector expanded nearly fivefold over the past year to roughly $30 billion, with CoinGecko valuing the full privacy category at more than $60 billion as ZEC led gains.
  • Grayscale's Zcash ETF began trading on NYSE Arca in Aug, offering the first spot exposure product. Developers activated Ironwood through the NU6 upgrade to address prior vulnerabilities.
  • The European Union's new anti-money laundering regulation takes effect July 10, 2027, prohibiting crypto-asset service providers from maintaining accounts allowing increased transaction obfuscation through anonymity-enhancing coins.
  • Bitcoin held near $86,900 amid broader market movement. Japan's central bank raised rates last week, maintaining a policy path that keeps global liquidity flowing into risk assets like ZEC.
