Measured from the beginning of each project
ZClassic has trumped Zcash at this point, giving some early adopters a chance to hedge, expand, or sell some gains into Zcash and grow it. From a speculative side, Zcash has advantages mentioned in the article that cannot be overlooked, but for now, the numbers show that ZClassic has offered a potentially higher return if timed well, and has risen above its beginning price at one point.
This is only pure speculation; nothing about this relates to value of either project.
