TREE NEWS reports: Zcash developers are proposing a network upgrade that would cut the blockchain’s block time from 75 seconds to 25 seconds. The change would also rewrite how the network pays for its own security after 2031. No timeline for the upgrade was given.
Zcash Upgrade Would Cut Block Time to 25 Seconds
AI take
The block-time cut is the headline, but the more consequential change is the proposed rewrite of how Zcash funds its own security after 2031 — that is a governance question, not an engineering one, and it touches miners, holders and anyone relying on the chain's long-run incentives. Faster blocks mainly matter to payment and settlement use cases where confirmation latency is the friction. With no timeline attached, whether this moves from proposal to activation is the open question.
