ZEC Markets and Data on Polymarket

ZEC carries the same instrument structure as the other seven archive coins — Up/Down on 5-minute, 15-minute, and 4-hour windows plus threshold lines — under the venue's eight-coin crypto shelf.

Its distinctive feature is liquidity rather than cadence: ZEC books are thin relative to BTC and ETH, which makes the archive's full-ladder capture the difference between studying ZEC at all versus studying a mid that was never real.

ZEC reproduces the venue's structural extremes: executable prices bunch on the 0.99/0.995 grid 98.6% of the time, one-sided snapshots hit 16.9% of 5-minute granularity, and 3.24% of snapshots are crossed — all of which manifest more severely in a thin coin's books.

The measured point of the ZEC pages is the honest point of the whole archive: thinness is a property recorded, not a reason to paper over; a backtest that walks the ladder prices the gap, and one that assumes the mid does not.

A ZEC 5-minute window opens with a single resting bid at 0.99 and no ask within the bound — a one-sided state that persists for minutes. The archive records the state second by second with depth and volume, and settles the row when the window closes.

The honest trade through those frames is a limit at the bound, and the ladder shows what the bound was at every second — the exact dataset a fill simulation needs.
