Zcash jumps 8% to about $1,320 as bitcoin nears $81,000 ahead of Fed decision

What sources claim

• ZEC led the majors, jumping 8% to about $1,320, putting it back above $1,300 after Monday's selloff, CoinDesk reported.
• Bitcoin climbed nearly 2% to just under $81,000, clawing back the weekend's slip to nearly $79,000, per CoinDesk.
• Ether gained 2% to just above $2,350 and SOL climbed about 2% to $102, according to CoinDesk data.

Still unresolved

• What drove ZEC's 8% move, and whether it reflects an official Zcash project announcement, would need confirmation from the project or exchange data.
• What the Federal Reserve's rate decision and Chair Kevin Warsh's remarks were, and how they affected crypto markets, would need the Fed's official statement.

Evidence levels describe source coverage, not the probability that a report is true. Price moves and their timing cannot establish a cause; minute samples show an observed interval and alert thresholds are heuristics. Explanations are model-assisted, with citations and figures checked. Source titles stay in their original language; full articles are not republished.
