Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.
Zcash (ZEC) is targeting a November 5, 2026 mainnet activation for its NU7 upgrade, which will cut the block target interval from 75 seconds to 25 seconds. The Zcash Foundation announced in an October 22 forum post on Zebra 7.0.0 that activation is set at block height 3,543,405, with the actual timing dependent on when mainnet reaches that height. Node operators are advised to update to Zebra 7.0.0 before the activation height is reached. The one-third reduction in block time is designed to shorten average wait times for transactions to be included in the first block. NU7 also includes a mechanism directing a portion of transaction fees toward future block rewards. Watch for node adoption rates ahead of the activation height and confirmation of the final activation timing.
