In a bearish market for digital assets, the share of Bitcoin (BTC) held by high-net-worth individuals has decreased to 30.5%, while the share of Zcash (ZEC) has increased to 24.2%. This indicates a stronger tendency among investors to secure cash by using their assets as collateral rather than selling them. According to CryptoQuant, the average number of loans taken out by individual investors has risen by 74%, from 30.8 to 53.5, and the average number of loans taken out by high-net-worth individuals has also increased by 18%, from 16.5 to 19.4. Among all users, 65.1% are repeat borrowers, showing that demand for loans has not decreased even in a bearish market. While the BTC share of high-net-worth individuals has dropped from 57.8% to 30.5%, the ZEC share has risen to 24.2%. The increase in ZEC share cannot be interpreted solely as new purchases, as the rise in price has also affected the collateral valuation. Among individual investors' collateral, the share of Ripple (XRP) has decreased to 35.2%, while Tron (TRX), Stellar Lumens (XLM), and Binance Coin (BNB) are included among the top collateral assets. The Zcash ETF 'ZCSH' has begun trading on the New York Stock Exchange Arca, and Cypherpunk Technologies has expanded its ZEC holdings. This data shows that some investors have secured cash by using their assets as collateral in a bearish market.

Global markets spent the weekend digesting last week’s payrolls data and crypto fund flows. August job growth of roughly 162,000 and a steady 4.1% unemployment rate pushed the 10-year Treasury yield to around 4.78%, reviving rate-hike pricing and weighing on technology and other long-duration assets. In crypto, bitcoin held near $80,000 as spot ETF inflows remained supportive, signaling that institutional risk appetite has not fully faded. At the same time, oil stayed firm on Middle East supply concerns, while gold consolidated at elevated levels. This week, attention turns to Oracle and Adobe earnings, as well as CPI, for the next repricing of the September Fed path.
