i know it's ZCOIN and not ZCASH, but for now, due to their similarity, i dont see zcoin pumping.
ZCASH is in slow mining process and the price will decrease until december(that's for sure, no way it will pump until slow mining ends) and because of that i'm sure zcoin will suffer too.
altcoin market always connect similar coins. It's like XMR pumping and other anon coins pumping too, bitcoin pumping/dumping and litecoin pumping/dumping too.
I have been reading some partial research, and it seems that Zcoin distances itself enough from Zcash to exist... it employs different techniches, the most important being the one that avoids the stupid as hell necessity of needing to trust that the developers delete the masterkey that has access to all the coins (without possibility of ever knowing this is the case since we can't know for sure, since the blockchain is obscured)
On other news, XMR has pumped a good 20% in the last days, looks like 0.006 was the time to enter. We'll see how long it lasts.
