Hu Mars Finance reported that on Aug. 25, citing BIT (Bit.com) market data, Grayscale's Zcash Spot ETF, trading under the ticker ZCSH, rose 1.83% at the open of U.S. trading before paring gains. The fund was last up 0.41% at $65.85.
ZCSH began trading on NYSE Arca on Monday, which Grayscale said makes it the world's first exchange-traded product designed to provide direct spot exposure to Zcash (ZEC). The vehicle was previously the Grayscale Zcash Trust, a privately placed product launched in October 2017.
Steve Vanourny, Head of Grayscale Index Products, highlighted that Zcash has nearly a decade of network history, a fixed maximum supply of 21 million coins and a proof-of-work consensus mechanism, alongside optional privacy features not available in Bitcoin. Grayscale said it views ZCSH as a high-risk, satellite allocation within digital-asset portfolios.
