🔒 $ZEC Update: NU7 Mainnet Upgrade Locked In for Nov 5
Zcash developers reached unanimous agreement on the roadmap for Network Upgrade 7 (NU7), targeting November 5, 2026 for mainnet activation.
📅 Timeline:
Testnet activation: Oct 6
Final mainnet decision: Oct 20
Mainnet activation: Nov 5
⚙️ What's changing:
Block spacing cut from 75s → 25s (3x faster blocks)
Version 4 transactions disabled
New Network Sustainability Mechanism (NSM) to support miner revenue — while preserving the original halving schedule
🗳️ Community backed it hard: 98.9% voted to keep the halving schedule, and 99.9% supported the faster-block proposal.
📈 Momentum is building too — ZEC jumped ~20% in 24h as privacy coins outperformed the broader market, and Zcash spot ETFs pulled in $98.2M in net inflows for the week ending Sept 18, the largest among all 14 tracked crypto products.
Privacy coins are clearly having a moment. 👀
