Last 6 Hours’ Biggest Movers Watchlist: ZEC, ONDO

Zcash (ZEC) +12.5%

Zcash (ZEC) has been in focus after reports highlighted a near 1,000% gain over the past year and roughly a 50% rise over the past month, alongside commentary that it “flashed” a fresh buy signal. More recently, headlines also pointed to a sharp drop of about 21% that triggered over $6M in long liquidations, underscoring how volatile the move has become.

#ZEC is a privacy-focused cryptocurrency that uses zero-knowledge proofs to enable shielded transactions. The recent price action looks like a mix of momentum-driven buying (as reflected in “buy signal” coverage) and fast deleveraging when the market turned (as reflected in the liquidation headline). With both strong longer-term performance figures and an abrupt liquidation event appearing in the same news cycle, ZEC is trading like a high-beta asset where positioning can flip quickly.

My estimate: near-term direction looks fragile after the reported ~21% crash and long-liquidation flush, which often signals momentum cooling. Unless follow-through buying returns quickly, ZEC is more likely to consolidate or drift lower than extend a clean rally from here.

Ondo Finance (ONDO) +10.37%

Ondo Finance (ONDO) drew attention after coverage said it is preparing a real-world-asset (RWA) perpetual contracts platform, with additional reporting noting progress “after CFTC clears” (per the headline). Separately, market data cited in the news said ONDO traded near $0.43 in late May, down sharply from its $2.14 peak in December 2024, while another update said the token surged over 7% amid a broader rally tied to “CLARITY Act momentum,” with Polymarket odds for the bill’s passage rising to 69%.

#ONDO is the governance token for the Ondo DAO and the Flux Finance protocol, and its narrative is closely tied to tokenized real-world assets and related market infrastructure. The recent bounce appears driven by two forces mentioned in the coverage: (1) product/newsflow around a perps platform and (2) macro-regulatory sentiment, as reflected in the CLARITY Act momentum and the cited Polymarket odds. Even with the rebound, the reported drawdown from the $2.14 December 2024 high to around $0.43 in late May shows the market is still pricing in significant uncertainty.

My estimate: ONDO can keep rising if the regulatory-sentiment tailwind persists and the perps-platform narrative continues to attract traders, but it remains vulnerable to pullbacks given how far it is off its prior peak. Net: slightly bullish bias near-term, but with elevated risk of retracement.
