JUST IN ⚡
Zcash developers are proposing a shift to 20‑second block intervals just days after completing a major speed upgrade 🚀.
The recent upgrade accelerated block production roughly threefold, yet early data shows the orphan‑block rate staying near pre‑upgrade levels ⏱️. This stability reassures the community that faster blocks do not degrade security. A shorter block time would boost transaction throughput and keep Zcash competitive with other privacy‑focused chains. The proposal now heads to a network‑wide vote, where miners and stakers must signal approval. Developers warn that thorough testing will continue to ensure network resilience.
If approved, the new 20‑second cadence could be live before year‑end, sharpening Zcash’s edge in the privacy market 🔜.
