$16M in $ZEC about to get bricked forever.

Zcash is killing its oldest privacy pool (Sprout) via NU7 upgrade. 12,226 $ZEC still sitting there — once legacy txs are disabled, that's dead money.

Short-term? Brutal for sentiment. Who wants to hold a coin that can lock you out?

Long-term? Maybe bullish for security and tech stack cleanup.

But here's the real question: Can a blockchain just decide to make your funds unspendable? Decentralization or dictatorship?

Good tech upgrade ≠ good optics. $ZEC holders need to wake up and migrate before it's too late.
