Dash price surged 25% to $90, outperforming Bitcoin and ZCash, after DashPay highlighted five major ecosystem milestones for 2025.

Key Notes

  • Dash price jumped 25.84% in 24 hours, crossing $90 for the first time since 2022.
  • Bitcoin and ZCash prices faltered as investors rotated into Dash.
  • DashPay team’s new report spotlighted five major product upgrades fueling investor optimism.

Dash price rose 25.84% over the last 24 hours, outpacing rival privacy coins ZCash (ZEC) and Bitcoin. As of Sunday, November 2, Dash trades at $90, marking its first time above the $1 billion market cap since 2022.

Over the past month, privacy coins have witnessed a remarkable resurgence, with ZEC leading the sector until recently. After racking up more than 1,000% gains in the last two months , ZCash faced rejection from the $440 mark on Sunday, dipping 5% intraday. Meanwhile, Bitcoin price remains subdued below $111,000, consolidating amid global macroeconomic uncertainty.

Dash Price Surges 25% as Team Reports 5 Biggest Achievements

Dash’s rally followed a detailed Saturday post by the project team highlighting its five biggest milestones for 2025.

This feature opens Dash access to hundreds of thousands of merchants globally.

Dash announced its integration into Maya Protocol, a cross-chain decentralized exchange that expands global demand for Dash. The report also mentioned the rollout of Dash Evolution, a new blockchain designed to support the introduction of usernames and smart contracts.

The timing of the rally suggests the post rekindled investor enthusiasm, drawing attention from privacy coin bulls seeking profitable plays as Bitcoin and Zcash retreated over the weekend.

Traders Anticipate More Gains as Dash Hits 300% Growth in 2025

Now trading at three-year peaks, Dash has drawn renewed interest from bullish traders betting on continued upside momentum.

Coinglass’ latest derivative data trends confirm this narrative. Dash’s derivatives trading volume soared 166.23% intraday to $1.37 billion, while open interest climbed 37.13% to $86.57 million. This indicates the rally is driven by a significantly larger influx of new capital, rather than merely strategic squeezes on short positions.

Looking ahead, traders could be eying a move toward Dash’s all-time high price of $95 recorded in 2017. The Long/short ratio at 1.04 confirms that the majority of new Dash futures contracts deployed on Sunday were bullish.

Conversely, short-term profit-taking could prompt a pullback toward $53, the initial local high formed when its current 3-day winning run kicked off on Friday.

Investors Eye Best Wallet Project Progress

While privacy coins continue to draw investor interest in 2025, early-stage projects with AI-powered features are also gaining traction.
