BSCN(@BSCNews):Zcash blocks get three times faster this week @Zcash is set to switch on its NU7 upgrade at block 3,543,405, expected around Thursday, November 5. The target time between blocks drops from 75 seconds to 25, cutting the wait for a first confirmation to a third, while the reward per block shrinks so daily $ZEC issuance stays the same. @ZcashFoundation has released Zebra 7.0.0, its first stable node software supporting NU7 on mainnet, with fixes for seven security issues. Node operators need to upgrade before the switch, since older 6.x versions can’t follow the chain past that block, and version 4 transactions will stop working entirely.
