Zcash Sets November Target for NU7 Upgrade and 25-Second Blocks

Zcash is targeting November for the NU7 mainnet upgrade, according to Cointelegraph. The update is expected to reduce the network’s block time to 25 seconds while preserving its existing halving schedule. Before the mainnet release, NU7 is planned to activate on Zcash’s testnet on October 6. The upgrade timeline gives the ZEC network a defined testing milestone ahead of the proposed mainnet deployment. The changes outlined for NU7 focus on block-production timing and the continuation of the halving schedule. Further details on the rollout beyond the testnet activation and November mainnet target were not provided in the source material.
