🚨 $ZEC JUST HIT A MAJOR MILESTONE!

Zcash’s NU7 upgrade is now LIVE on the public testnet — and the headline change is huge:

⏱️ 75s → 25s block time
That’s roughly 3× faster block production.

Activated at block 4,465,026 on October 4, NU7 is now being battle-tested before its potential mainnet launch.

But faster blocks aren’t the only change. 👇

🔹 Network Sustainability Mechanism
• 40% of transaction fees → miners
• 60% → reserve for future mining rewards
• Block rewards adjusted to prevent ZEC issuance from simply tripling with the faster block schedule

🔹 Version 4 transactions disabled
Legacy Sprout funds need to be moved before mainnet activation, or they could become unspendable.

📅 October 20: Key testnet review
🚀 November 5: Current target for mainnet activation

If testing goes smoothly, Zcash could soon deliver much faster confirmation times without abandoning its broader issuance framework.

NU7 isn’t just another upgrade.

It’s a major step toward a faster Zcash network. ⚡
