Solana vs Zcash

A comparison of Solana (SOL) and Zcash (ZEC) with today's market data.

What if Solana were worth as much as Zcash?

If Solana had the market cap of Zcash today ($21.8 B), spread across its 587,150,564 units in circulation, each one would be worth $37.13. That is 0.38 times its current price of $98.51.

And the other way round?

With the market cap of Solana ($57.7 B), each Zcash would be worth $3,406.70: 2.61 times the $1,306.98 it trades at now.

This calculation is a rule of three on the circulating supply, not a projection and not a recommendation. Whether one coin reaches the market cap of another depends on adoption, future supply and real demand, none of which follows from today's price.

What these numbers say

  • Over the past 24 hours 5.66% of the market cap of Solana has been traded, against 8.21% for Zcash. The higher that share, the more that coin's capital is moving relative to its size.
  • Zcash has an issuance cap of 21,000,000 units; Solana does not. That is a difference of design, not of quality: a fixed cap limits dilution, and having none allows the security of the network to be funded over the long run.
