One of those is Arthur Hayes, the co-founder and former CEO of BitMEX, who <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/CryptoHayes\/status\/1988182150538248229\">said<\/a> the big question now is whether to sell or not.<\/p>\n<p>Hayes is among the individuals who have outlined some of the most optimistic price predictions for ZEC during the upward momentum of the past weeks. Last week, he <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/zcash-zec-skyrockets-to-a-7-year-high-can-it-reach-1000\/\">envisioned<\/a> the rise to $1,000, whereas previously, he had <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/zcash-zec-explodes-to-a-7-year-high-is-the-bull-run-just-starting\/\">set<\/a> the somewhat absurd target of $10,000.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Maelstrom (an investment fund run by Hayes) is heavily invested in ZEC. Just a few days ago, the American <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/CryptoHayes\/status\/1986772900070695039\">revealed<\/a> that the cryptocurrency has become the entity\u2019s second-largest liquid holding, trailing only behind Bitcoin (BTC).<\/p>\n<p>The X user Degen Sing also weighed in on the matter. According to the analyst, ZEC is not dumping but reloading, <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/degensing\/status\/1988125991529766957\">arguing<\/a> that this is a \u201ctextbook mid-trend pullback before continuation.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><span class=\"css-1jxf684 r-bcqeeo r-1ttztb7 r-qvutc0 r-poiln3\">\u201cNext major resistance is sitting around $750 \u2013 and we already touched it once.

As mentioned above, the price has already dipped below that level.<\/p>\n<h2>Privacy Coins Head South<\/h2>\n<p>It is worth noting that ZEC\u2019s recent decline aligns with the broader downtrend affecting the entire privacy coin sector.
