Zcash Devs Eye 20-Second Blocks Days After Major Network Overhaul

Zcash developers have proposed reducing the network’s target block interval from 25 seconds to 20 seconds under the draft Network Upgrade 7.1. Zcash developers have proposed reducing the network’s target block interval to 20 seconds, just days after a major upgrade cut block times to 25 seconds. The latest proposal aims to accelerate transaction confirmations while preserving Zcash (ZEC)’s existing issuance schedule and supply cap. The proposal, published for community discussion on the Zcash forums , targets inclusion in the upcoming Network Upgrade 7.1 (NU7.1). The proposal follows the successful activation of Network Upgrade 7 (NU7), which introduced several structural changes to Zcash, including faster block production, a long-term network security reserve and the retirement of its original Sprout shielded pool.
