Zcash Rises After Upgrade Freezes $16M in ZEC, Establishes Security Reserve

Zcash Rises After Upgrade Freezes $16M in ZEC, Establishes Security Reserve
AI summary

Zcash activated Network Upgrade 7, cutting block times from 75 seconds to 25 seconds while preserving the supply cap. The upgrade also froze roughly $16 million worth of ZEC held in an outdated shielded pool, making those funds permanently inaccessible. Traders are watching whether faster blocks revive interest in ZEC, though the frozen supply removes coins from circulation and the upgrade's reception will drive near-term price action.
