Summary

AllianceDAO co-founder Wang Qiao said ZEC could capture 3%–5% of BTC’s market cap, with a bullish target of 15%–20%. He noted that BTC holders might shift assets to ZEC for hedging purposes. In a worst-case scenario for BTC, such as a quantum attack, ZEC could outperform. ZEC has risen over 25% in the past month, with a market cap exceeding $100 billion.

BlockBeats news: On May 21, Wang Qiao, co-founder of AllianceDAO, stated that ZEC’s conservative target is to reach 3%–5% of Bitcoin’s market capitalization, as Bitcoin holders may allocate a portion of their assets to ZEC as a hedging tool; a more aggressive target is 15%–20% of Bitcoin’s market cap, reflecting the historical silver-to-gold price ratio.

Wang Qiao also believes that if BTC experiences a catastrophic event—such as a massive sell-off by Saylor or a quantum attack—ZEC could overtake BTC. ZEC has risen over 25% in the past month, with its market cap surpassing $10 billion.

As of press time, ZEC's market capitalization stands at $10.9 billion, while Bitcoin's market capitalization is approximately $1.54 trillion. If this prediction materializes, ZEC still has potential for a 3x to 6x increase.
