This is from some dude I follow on a crypto message board... it's just his personal opinion but so far he's nailed the value of zcash the past few months ....
Just wait until Bitcoin forces the hardfork......there is only about 5 months left, and the developers are bitching that it's not enough time for testing..... Bitcoin miners are going to bail! They will convert to mining Zcash, that's why Slushpool added Zcash mining, the first ever altcoin since it's inception over 8 years ago. Although Zcash CEO said they would keep Zcash on GPU mining, I think they will switch to ASIC once the Bitcoin Miners jump on it....... I predict that Zcash will hit around $2,500-$4,500 when the SHTF! And remember, I told you when it was going to hit $200, and again when it was going to hit $300......

The final stake in bitcoin's heart is when JPMorgan Chase announced that it was going to use Zcash and it's own additional security for the commercial banking sector. Etherium will be used in the public sector, all the while Bitcoin tanks. And remember, it WILL happen BEFORE the forced hard-fork on August 1st, 2017! The bailout will happen 7-10 days before the hard fork. Then, you'll be stuck with a worthless currency. It only takes 0.006 % of bitcoin holders to SELL for it to tank below $3,000...... DO THE MATH!
