Where the Zcash (ZEC) price can end up by 2031

No number here is a promise. The range comes from how hard Zcash has actually swung over 365 days, plus the facts that push this coin around.

Scenarios for Zcash: 2027 to 2031

Further out, wider band. At very high volatility of 157.25% a year the spread grows with the square root of time: two years out of three the price stays inside, the third one it walks out.

The band is today's price times e to the plus-minus volatility times the square root of the years. The centre equals today's price: direction is not predicted. The last column is your own guess and is counted in the browser.

These numbers follow your assumption, not a forecast: the orange line is your rate, the shaded area is the coin's own volatility.

How the range is built

Take the daily ZEC price for 365 days, measure the swing from day to day, turn it into a yearly number — 157.25% for Zcash. That is the whole width of the band.

The centre sits on today's price on purpose. Past quotes do not hand you a future trend; if they did, the trade would have been taken already. A site showing one exact figure for 2030 has usually multiplied today's price by a fixed percentage — the same one for every coin.

What actually pushes ZEC

The price sits 56.76% under the high of $3,192; a 131.27% rise puts it back.
16.93 M ZEC issued out of 21 M — 80.64%. The closer to the cap, the thinner the stream of new coins.
The next halving lands around Nov 24, 2028: the block reward falls from 1.5625 to 0.78125 ZEC, and new supply halves with it.
The rate partly follows Bitcoin (correlation 0.44): the market picks the direction, the coin's own news pick the size of the move.
Capitalisation 23.38 B, rank 9: the bigger it is, the more money the same move costs.

Where this breaks

A band is not a guarantee. One event — an exchange going down, a regulator's decision, a large holder selling — takes the price out of it in a day. Volatility moves too: 157.25% over the last 365 days, and it can double. This page informs, it does not advise.
