Zcash (ZEC) Prices Soars: Voting results for NU7 upgrade announced

Zcash (ZEC) recorded a significant price increase, soaring to US$1,388 after holders finalized their decision to the next major upgrade of the agreement, namely NU7. The current trading price of ZEC is US$1,368, a daily increase of 10.9%, and the cumulative increase in the past 30 days has reached 168%. According to CoinGecko data, this privacy-focused cryptocurrency currently ranks ninth in market value, with a total valuation of US$22.9 billion.

Record vote by NU7 holders

The upgrade process revolves around a five-question survey of qualified ZEC holders. The voting participation rate reached 66%, and a total of 2.4 million ZECs participated in the voting, setting a record high. Eligibility to vote is based on the expendable shield ZEC stored in the Ironwood pool at the block height of 3,459,350 (recorded on August 24). Each blocked token corresponds to one vote.

The voting mechanism uses encrypted ballots and splits them into 16 non-connectable fragments. This cryptographic approach ensures that summary results can be counted without associating votes with the identity of individual holders or disclosing the amount of any participant's position.

Mini Dictionary: Ironwood Pool -A privacy-focused shielded Zcash pool designed to provide greater security and upgraded cryptographic features, replacing older pools such as Sprout.

绝大多数持有者(98.9%)投票决定维持比特币风格的区块奖励减半机制,而非转向更平滑的发行计划。此外,投票还批准了 25 秒的区块生成时间、立即弃用过时的 Sprout 池,并优先仅纳入截至 9 月 30 日前准备就绪的功能,从而有效缩小了升级范围。

升级选项 持有者投票比例 (%) 专家小组偏好 保持区块奖励减半 98.9 一致支持 更快的 25 秒区块 多数批准 N/A 弃用遗留的 Sprout 池 多数批准 N/A 网络可持续性机制(2031年2月激活) 96.6 专家小组建议尽快实施

网络可持续性机制引发利益相关方分歧

关于何时激活网络可持续性机制(即将交易费用回收给矿工)的问题引发了争议。虽然 96.6% 的持有者选择 2031 年 2 月作为开始日期,但顾问小组主张立即实施。

包括 Shielded Labs、Project Tachyon、ZODL、Zcash 基金会和 Valar Group 在内的组织随后表示支持 2031 年 2 月的时间表,称其为最保守的方法,符合持有者的意图。然而,他们指出,如果需要,未来的投票可能会重新审视这一问题。

Zcash 是一个以隐私为中心的加密货币,旨在利用零知识证明实现屏蔽交易,允许在无需透露发送方、接收方或金额细节的情况下验证信息。

ETF 上市推动价格飙升

过去一年中,ZEC 的涨幅超过 2,500%。市场观察家 Nasoi 将部分快速升值归因于 Grayscale 近期推出的 ETF,这为 Zcash 引入了新的机构投资渠道。

一些分析师认为,ZEC 在过去一年中的显著价格上涨与 Grayscale 的 ETF 有关,该 ETF 被描述为向机构投资者提供了“此前不存在的通往 Zcash 的途径”。
