Zcash targets November for NU7 activation

#Zcash developers have set block 3,543,405 as the activation point for NU7, which is expected around November 5. The upgrade will cut block times from 75 seconds to 25 seconds. The upgrade will also temporarily remove 60% of transaction fees from each block from circulation, with payments to miners set to begin around February 2031. The existing mining reward halving schedule will remain unchanged.

Zcash’s original privacy system, Sprout, will be fully deactivated, rendering any funds not transferred before the upgrade unspendable. As of October 21 at 08:00 UTC, the proposal specifying the activation block had not yet been merged into the deployment specification. The selected block height must also be integrated into node software before the upgrade can proceed.
