Zcash ships Zebra 7.0.0 with NU7 support ahead of Nov. 5 activation
- —NU7 cuts block times from 75 to 25 seconds while keeping daily ZEC issuance unchanged
- —Zebra 7.0.0 bundles fixes for five security advisories
- —60% of transaction fees go to a reserve that returns via block rewards from around 2031
- —Sprout-pool funds can no longer be spent via version 4 transactions after activation
Why it matters: The upgrade triples Zcash confirmation speed and reworks fee economics, and nodes that miss the deadline drop off the network.
