Zcash Holds Market Cap Rank 19 As Privacy Tokens Draw Renewed Interest
Zcash (ZEC) returned to CoinGecko's trending list on April 27, 2026. The token traded at approximately $357.50, with a 24-hour gain of roughly 0.45% in USD terms. It held market cap rank 19 globally.

ZEC Price and Market Data
Zcash's position at rank 19 by market cap makes it one of the highest-ranked assets on this hour's CoinGecko trending list, sitting above most other trending tokens by size. A rank-19 asset appearing in trending reflects renewed trader attention rather than initial discovery.

The 0.45% gain in USD over 24 hours was modest in absolute terms.

Against BTC, ZEC gained roughly 2.3% over the same window, as BTC fell approximately 1.76% in USD during the same period. The 24-hour volume figure from CoinGecko's data showed ZEC in positive territory across most fiat pairs.

The price of $357.50 puts ZEC well below its all-time high, but notably above its multi-year lows reached in 2022 and 2023.

The US Senate Banking Committee allowed April to close without scheduling a CLARITY Act markup, confirming the bill has missed its target window and pushing the legislative path entirely into May with fewer than four working weeks before the Memorial Day recess. Summary The Senate Banking Committee failed to schedule a CLARITY Act markup in April, officially missing the target window after the Kevin Warsh Fed nomination consumed the committee’s calendar. With Congress breaking for Memorial Day recess on May 21, the bill now needs to complete a Banking Committee markup, a 60-vote Senate floor vote, and three reconciliation steps in under four weeks. Galaxy Research puts passage odds at 50-50 or lower, while TD Cowen is more pessimistic at one-in-three, though Novogratz and Garlinghouse both say the bill still gets done in May. The CLARITY Act missed its April markup window after the Senate Banking Committee let the month close without scheduling a hearing, with Eleanor Terrett reporting that no notice came from Chairman Tim Scott or Banking Committee Republicans before Friday’s informal cutoff. The absence of any formal announcement has effectively eliminated April from the bill’s legislative calendar and shifted all momentum toward the second week of May as the new target. CLARITY Act April Deadline Missed as Warsh Hearings Consume Committee Time The committee’s April calendar was dominated by the confirmation hearing for Federal Reserve chair nominee Kevin Warsh, whose blockade by Senator Thom Tillis had created competing pressure on the same senators who are negotiating the CLARITY Act’s final text. As crypto.news reported, with the Warsh confirmation process now resolved following Tillis’s announcement on April 27, the committee’s most pressing competing obligation has been removed. A Banking Committee markup is now expected in the first or secon

Bloomberg’s Legendary Figure Mike McGlone: “Bitcoin Will One Day Become Digital Gold, But…”
In a recent panel featuring leading figures in the cryptocurrency world and macroeconomists, the future of the global economy and Bitcoin’s role in this process were discussed. Experts issued important warnings about Bitcoin potentially serving as a leading indicator against a potential “crash” risk that markets are ignoring.

While the general expectation of an economic downturn was present throughout the panel, experts drew attention to various indicators.

Bloomberg analyst Mike McGlone stated that economic data shows similarities to historical cycles, arguing that the pressure in commodity markets in particular is a sign of deflation and recession. According to McGlone, excessive optimism in equity markets may be masking the impending economic slowdown.

Peter Tchir, highlighting the liquidity problems in credit markets, stated that the increase in borrowing costs for companies was beginning to create serious cracks in the real economy.

Bitcoin’s recent price movements were evaluated from different perspectives by the participants. Noelle Acheson stated that Bitcoin is not only a “risk asset” but also functions as an “insurance policy” against the centralized financial system. Acheson noted that vulnerabilities in the banking system have increased institutional interest in Bitcoin.

Mike McGlone, on the other hand, warned investors that while Bitcoin will one day be fully accepted as “digital gold,” it could be affected by a potential sharp decline in stock markets in the short term (due to beta correlation).

Participants noted that markets were overly focused on the Fed’s interest rate policies, but the real danger was the sharp drop in consumer spending and the quiet

Cardano Foundation CEO: “We’re Bringing Many of Bitcoin’s Features to ADA”
Speaking at a panel held as part of Paris Blockchain Week, Cardano Foundation CEO Frederik Gregaard highlighted $ADA’s contribution to the authentication and security infrastructure of the traditional banking system.

Gregaard stated, “What banks use today to secure themselves and verify their identities is the Legal Entity Identifier. Cardano ($ADA) is the only blockchain that can do this, and we are also leveraging some architectural elements of Bitcoin in this process.” He argued that $ADA could bring the standards used by traditional financial institutions to the blockchain world.

Gregaard said, “There’s a lot of work being done to bring Bitcoin to Cardano, programmable DeFi with BTC, using Satoshis as gas fees natively on Cardano… So you get programmability without leaving Bitcoin. That will unlock a lot of things.”

The CEO of the Cardano Foundation added, “Bitcoin has the superiority of UTXO and the superiority of its architecture… $ADA borrowed some of these design principles. I think Bitcoin and $ADA really work together very well.”
