Zcash (ZEC) Price Outlook: Could $300–$400 Bounce Trigger a Reversal?

As of February 9, 2026, Zcash (ZEC) continues its downward trajectory, losing 2.58% in the past 24 hours. The token has declined 22.38% over the last week, reflecting persistent bearish momentum across global crypto markets.

ZEC is currently trading at $230.63, with a 24-hour trading volume of $342.13 million and a market capitalization of $3.81 billion, according to CoinMarketCap. Traders are closely monitoring the $200–$220 support zone, which has historically triggered rebounds during bearish phases.

Technical Levels: Support, Resistance, and Market Structure

According to the crypto analyst Globe Of Crypto, the ZEC daily chart shows price correcting after its previous rally toward $700–$750. Lower highs and lower lows are forming into early 2026, pushing the token back toward major support near $200–$220. This zone is crucial for short-term reversal attempts and trend stability for active swing traders.

Currently, ZEC trades near $240 after bouncing from support. Immediate resistance sits near $300, with stronger supply zones at $400–$420. Sustained closes above these levels would be required for bullish momentum to recover and attract both retail and institutional participation.

However, if ZEC breaks below the $200 support level, the selling momentum may drive it towards $120, consistent with earlier levels of demand. On the other hand, consistent support may gradually move ZEC towards the $300 level, and then the $400 levels, which will determine the outlook for March.

Momentum Indicators Signal Bearish Sentiment

Zcash’s weekly Relative Strength Index (RSI) is at 44.6, just below the midpoint of 50, which indicates a possible slowing of bullish strength.

The immediate moving average at 60 indicates that momentum is less strong than in the recent past. Until the RSI breaks above 50, the bears have the stronger position, as indicated on the TradingView chart.

The MACD indicates dominant bearish momentum, with the MACD line falling to -1.25 below the signal line at -0.98.

The histogram remains negative at -0.27 and deteriorates as it spreads further downwards, indicating growing bearish pressure. Together with the RSI, the indicators highlight the strength of selling pressure in the market.

Why This Matters

A fall below the $200 level of ZEC could accelerate losses, triggering effects for swing traders and major players worldwide.

A possible bounce to the $300-$400 level could be triggered if the level above the $200-$220 support zone is maintained.

The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For

The post The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Visions of future technology are often prescient about the broad strokes while flubbing the details. The tablets in “2001: A Space Odyssey” do indeed look like iPads, but you never see the astronauts paying for subscriptions or wasting hours on Candy Crush.  Channel factories are one vision that arose early in the history of the Lightning Network to address some challenges that Lightning has faced from the beginning. Despite having grown to become Bitcoin’s most successful layer-2 scaling solution, with instant and low-fee payments, Lightning’s scale is limited by its reliance on payment channels. Although Lightning shifts most transactions off-chain, each payment channel still requires an on-chain transaction to open and (usually) another to close. As adoption grows, pressure on the blockchain grows with it. The need for a more scalable approach to managing channels is clear. Channel factories were supposed to meet this need, but where are they? In 2025, subnetworks are emerging that revive the impetus of channel factories with some new details that vastly increase their potential. They are natively interoperable with Lightning and achieve greater scale by allowing a group of participants to open a shared multisig UTXO and create multiple bilateral channels, which reduces the number of on-chain transactions and improves capital efficiency. Achieving greater scale by reducing complexity, Ark and Spark perform the same function as traditional channel factories with new designs and additional capabilities based on shared UTXOs.  Channel Factories 101 Channel factories have been around since the inception of Lightning. A factory is a multiparty contract where multiple users (not just two, as in a Dryja-Poon channel) cooperatively lock funds in a single multisig UTXO. They can open, close and update channels off-chain without updating the blockchain for each operation. Only when participants leave or the factory dissolves is an on-chain transaction…
