Why Is Zcash (ZEC) Up 7% Today, July 10? ZEC Breaks $500 on Ironwood Upgrade and ZK Demand

AI Market Summary
ZEC outperformed the broader crypto complex as traders priced in the confirmed July 28 Ironwood upgrade, which strengthens supply-verification controls and retires the vulnerable Orchard pool, helping restore confidence in Zcash's fixed-supply credibility. The move also reflects a selective rotation into privacy and zero-knowledge exposure, with ZEC acting as the most liquid proxy. Short-term focus is on post-breakout positioning around the reclaimed $500 area.
