By The post ZEC and HBAR Lead Altcoin Recovery as Market Turns Green: What Comes Next? appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News
The broader crypto market is finally flashing green after days of pressure, and capital rotation is already visible beneath the surface. While Bitcoin stabilizes and Ethereum regains short-term structure, selective altcoins are accelerating at a much faster pace. Today, Zcash (ZEC) and Hedera (HBAR) are leading that recovery, posting double-digit gains and drawing renewed trader attention.
Is this merely a relief rally in sync with Bitcoin’s bounce, or are token-specific catalysts adding fuel to the move. A closer look at both price structures and recent developments suggests the rally may have deeper foundations than just market-wide momentum.
Zcash (ZEC) Price Jumps as Range Breakout Confirms Momentum Shift
Zcash (ZEC) has staged one of the strongest single-day recoveries among mid-cap altcoins, rebounding sharply from its recent demand zone near the $210–$220 region. ZEC daily chart shows price reacting aggressively from a long-standing horizontal support area that previously acted as accumulation during earlier cycles. The 22% surge has propelled ZEC price back toward the $280–$300 resistance cluster, an area that aligns with the breakdown point from January’s corrective leg. From a structural standpoint, ZEC token appears to be attempting a recovery from a broader descending pattern, with the current candle challenging the upper boundary of short-term compression.
If ZEC token secures a daily close above $300, the next hurdle lies near $330–$350, where prior distribution occurred. On the downside, immediate support now shifts to the $250 region, followed by the stronger base near $220. A failure to hold above $260 could turn this rally into a short-lived squeeze rather than a structural reversal. The broader privacy-coin narrative has also regained modest traction amid renewed interest in decentralized financial autonomy, which may be adding speculative tailwinds to ZEC’s breakout attempt.
Hedera (HBAR) Price Rises as FedEx Joins Hedera Council: Is $0.120 Breakout Next?
A key catalyst behind today’s HBAR’s price surge is the announcement that FedEx Corp has joined the Hedera Governing Council, signaling deeper enterprise integration and expanding institutional credibility for the network. FedEx’s involvement centers around leveraging Hedera’s distributed ledger technology to move aspects of global supply chain tracking on-chain. This development strengthens Hedera’s enterprise narrative and reinforces its positioning as a high-performance, corporate-friendly blockchain infrastructure. HBAR price has rebounded from the lower boundary of its multi-month descending channel. The 10% surge has pushed price back toward the mid-range resistance near $0.10–$0.11, where previous recovery attempts faced rejection.
If buyers manage to break above the channel’s upper trendline and sustain momentum beyond $0.14, the next upside target could emerge near $0.18-$0.20. However, failure to clear resistance could keep HBAR locked within its broader corrective structure. The combination of technical rebound and enterprise-backed news flow provides a stronger foundation for HBAR’s move compared to purely sentiment-driven rallies.
Market Outlook
Both ZEC and HBAR are benefiting from the broader crypto market recovery, but their magnitude of gains suggests selective capital rotation into tokens with either technical breakout setups or credible fundamental triggers. ZEC is attempting to transition from accumulation to expansion, while HBAR is leveraging enterprise-driven optimism to reclaim lost ground. Whether these rallies evolve into sustained uptrends will depend on follow-through buying and the ability to convert resistance into support. For now, both tokens have shifted momentum decisively in favor of bulls, but confirmation will come only if key breakout levels hold in the sessions ahead.
