Zano Rolls Back 30 Days of Blockchain History After Inflation Bug

Privacy chain Zano has deployed a hotfix and rolled its block height back to 3,833,000, erasing 30 days of confirmed transactions after an inflation exploit last Friday. The team said third-party wallets, exchanges and payment providers must update their nodes to the revised chain before ZANO and Zano-issued asset transfers can safely resume. ZANO has fallen 32% this week and 40.6% year-to-date in 2026.

AI take

A month-long rollback is a heavier intervention than a simple hotfix, and it shifts the real risk from the exploit itself to the resumption process: any wallet, exchange or payment provider that lags on updating its node could transact on the abandoned chain. That coordination burden, not the inflation bug, is what determines how quickly Zano-issued assets return to normal. The market reaction suggests holders are pricing execution risk on that migration rather than the flaw alone. Whether third-party infrastructure converges on the revised chain without further friction is the open question.
