Zcash generating $405M annualized fees.
More than Ethereum ($329M) and Solana ($323M).
According to @tokenterminal calculations these are actual tx fees paid by users, not block rewards or inflation. Calculated from the UTXO model with shielded pool transactions included.
Pretty sick metrics driven by:
- 59% of transactions are now shielded
- Shielded volume up 300%
- Multiple CEXs relisted ZEC in early 2026 after delisting in 2023
- Multicoin Capital disclosed a position
- Grayscale filed for a spot ZEC ETF
- Privacy narrative on CT
Although DefiLlama shows much lower current fees (~$60k per 30 days).
The $405M yearly number from Token Terminal includes the huge pump of fees in January 2026.
But even excluding the outlier months, even today ZEC is generating more fees than Etherem.(Ignas | DeFi)
