Zcash's New Node Zakura Goes Live: Privacy Payments Can Reach 50,000 TPS, Aiming to Rival Visa and Mastercard

Zcash, a privacy-focused cryptocurrency, has launched a new full node software called Zakura version 1.0.0. Developed by Zcash co-founder Sean Bowe and Dev Ojha, with private ZEC donations, its goal is to enable Zcash to process over 50,000 transactions per second (TPS)—matching the scale of Visa and Mastercard—while maintaining full transaction privacy and verifiability. This addresses a key bottleneck, as Zcash currently handles only about 1 private transaction per second. Zakura is a fork of the Zcash Foundation's Zebra node. It features chain pruning and snapshots, reducing disk usage and allowing new nodes to sync in under two minutes. It also offers compatibility with the legacy `zcashd` client interface. The scalability challenge stems from the large data size of privacy proofs. Bowe's Tachyon project aims to use recursive proofs to reduce consensus-layer data needs from ~500 MB/s to ~100 MB/s. For wallet scalability, Valar Group is researching Private Information Retrieval (PIR) tech to allow wallets to fetch their data privately. Zakura supports fast block propagation and the upcoming "Ironwood" network upgrade (NU6.3), scheduled for activation around July 28th. Ironwood was created to contain a critical inflation bug discovered in the Orchard shielded pool in May 2024. The fix uses "turnstiles" to trap any counterfeit ZEC created during the vulnerability period within the shielded pool, preventing it from entering circulation and restoring supply integrity.

Cardano rallies 13% ahead of van Rossem upgrade—but can the move last?

Cardano's ADA surged 13.22% with trading volume up nearly 60%, coinciding with the anticipated van Rossem hard fork—an intra-era upgrade focused on performance, governance, and new Plutus functions. This move was also supported by a broader market rebound, with Bitcoin surpassing $62,000. Despite the rally, ADA's overall price structure remains bearish. The price recently fell below the crucial $0.235 support, and the swing structure turned bearish after breaking the $0.32 level in January 2026. Although the price breached the 78.6% Fibonacci retracement level at $0.1789, a daily close above $0.19 is needed to shift the structure to bullish. Technical indicators show mixed signals: the MFI indicates upward momentum, but the CMF remains weak, reflecting a lack of sustained buying pressure. Analysts suggest the current bounce is overextended, with the MFI above 80. They identify a potential short opportunity for swing traders, with invalidation above $0.19 and downside targets near $0.138 and $0.126. In summary, while the upgrade provided a short-term catalyst, the underlying market structure suggests a rejection from the $0.178-$0.190 area is likely.

Kaspa price prediction: Sell-the-news reaction wipes out recent gains

Kaspa (KAS) completed its Toccata hard fork on June 30, introducing smart contracts and KRC-20 token support. In anticipation, KAS price rallied 20.38% to $0.032. However, a "sell-the-news" reaction caused a 7.8% drop within 10 hours. Long-term, the token remains in a bearish trend, having failed to break the $0.04 resistance and now nearing the $0.025 swing low. Technical indicators like the MACD and CMF support this negative outlook. Short-term gains were used as a selling opportunity, with liquidation levels swept above $0.03 before the reversal. Further price declines towards $0.0249 and potentially $0.020 are possible in the coming weeks.

Cardano Van Rossem Upgrade Moves Closer To Mainnet As Governance Phase Advances

Cardano's Van Rossem protocol upgrade is progressing through its final governance and readiness phase, following its successful enactment on the PreProd testnet. This upgrade is a key test of Cardano's on-chain governance model post-Voltaire, involving coordination among stakeholders. Traders are monitoring the rollout closely, as a smooth process could boost confidence in ADA, while delays could hurt sentiment, especially in a weak market. While PreProd success is a positive step, the focus is now on mainnet activation and clear communication from official channels. Ultimately, a technically sound and uneventful execution would validate Cardano's governance process, serving as a concrete development catalyst.

BIP-110 Controversy Intensifies: Bitcoin May Face Its Most Divisive Hard Fork Battle in Years

Bitcoin is approaching a critical block height of 961,632, which could activate the controversial BIP-110 proposal. This proposal aims to restrict the amount of non-financial data, such as inscriptions and other large data payloads, within Bitcoin transactions. Supporters, including some node operators and Bitcoin purists, argue that BIP-110 is necessary to preserve Bitcoin's core function as a monetary settlement layer by reducing network congestion and node operational burdens caused by non-essential data. They frame it as a correction to keep the network true to its original purpose. However, critics, including prominent figures like Blockstream's Adam Back and developer Jameson Lopp, warn that the proposal's implementation mechanism is dangerously flawed. They highlight that its low 55% miner signaling threshold, coupled with a contentious enforcement mechanism allowing nodes to unilaterally reject non-compliant blocks, significantly increases the risk of a chain split. Opponents argue this sets a dangerous precedent for transaction censorship, undermines Bitcoin's protocol neutrality, and creates excessive uncertainty for developers and businesses, especially since the rule is proposed as a temporary one-year measure. Market analysts, such as those from Bitfinex, suggest a full-scale network split is unlikely due to a lack of broad economic consensus. Major mining pools remain neutral, and adoption of the new rules is minimal. They view the situation more as a governance stress test. The primary risk is operational disruption: if a minority chain persists, major exchanges and custodians may need to temporarily suspend Bitcoin deposits and withdrawals to manage security and liquidity, potentially unsettling newer institutional investors. While BIP-110 is not expected to succeed in overtaking the main chain, its approach has ignited a significant debate about Bitcoin's governance, core values, and resilience.

Privacy Coin Crisis of Confidence! ZEC Plunges Over 56% in a Single Day

Zcash (ZEC), a leading privacy-focused cryptocurrency, experienced a severe crash on June 5th, plummeting over 56% in a single day and erasing nearly two months of gains. The flash crash was triggered by the disclosure of a critical zero-knowledge proof vulnerability within Zcash's Orchard privacy pool, which had existed since the pool's launch in May 2022. The flaw theoretically allowed an attacker to forge unlimited ZEC undetectably due to the pool's privacy features. The vulnerability was discovered on May 29th by independent security researcher Taylor Hornby during a proactive audit commissioned by Shielded Labs, utilizing AI-assisted analysis. The Zcash development team responded swiftly, implementing an emergency soft fork to disable Orchard transactions on June 2nd and executing a permanent hard fork fix (NU6.2) on June 3rd. Despite the technical fix, a major crisis of confidence emerged. The core issue is that Orchard's privacy design makes it cryptographically impossible to prove whether the vulnerability was exploited over the past four years, casting permanent doubt on the historical supply integrity of ZEC. While Shielded Labs argues exploitation was unlikely, the inability to provide definitive proof has severely damaged market trust. This sentiment was exacerbated when BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes, a prominent ZEC supporter, announced he was selling his entire position. He stated that privacy assets require "perfect security" rather than "probable safety." The combined effect of the disclosure and Hayes's exit ignited widespread panic selling, leading to massive liquidations and significant price decline. Analysts note the event highlights a fundamental tension within privacy coins: the conflict between verifiable supply and cryptographic privacy.

XRP Ledger Hard Fork In 8 Days? Upgrade Deadline Sparks Network Split Debate

The XRP Ledger community is debating whether the mandatory v3.1.3 software upgrade constitutes a hard fork, with critics warning that nodes not updated before the May 27 deadline will be cut off from the network. The update includes a critical fix amendment, which, according to network rules, will automatically activate after a set period. Early data showed a majority of nodes had not upgraded, sparking concerns about a potential network split. Proponents argue the process is not a contentious fork but a standard "amendment blocking" security feature designed to protect network integrity by isolating outdated software. They emphasize that responsible node maintenance is required, and the mechanism ensures all participants correctly interpret transaction rules. Infrastructure experts also note that raw node counts may overstate the risk, as many inactive or non-critical nodes could update last-minute. The debate centers on governance and the operational health of the decentralized network.

IOG Unveils Cardano 2030 Scaling Plan: 27 Million Monthly Transactions With Leios

Input Output Global (IOG) has unveiled a scaling plan aimed at increasing Cardano’s transaction capacity from 800,000 to 27 million monthly transactions by 2030. A key part of this roadmap is the Leios upgrade, which is currently progressing through Software Readiness Levels 5 to 8 to prepare for mainnet deployment. The plan includes developing a release candidate, conducting rigorous validation through load and adversarial testing, and enabling a hard fork. IOG emphasizes that success is measured by completing preparatory work—such as technical documentation and ecosystem coordination—rather than by the timing of the mainnet launch. The upgrade is expected to support network growth, higher total value locked (TVL), and improved sustainability. ADA was trading at $0.25 at the time of writing.

Cardano Founder Says Bitcoin Has Entered ‘Shitcoin Land’

Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson criticized Bitcoin's governance and response to quantum computing threats in a livestream titled "BIP 361: Welcome to ShitcoinLand, Bitcoin." He argued that Bitcoin's resistance to change has left it vulnerable, with over 34% of all Bitcoin (approximately 8 million BTC) exposed to potential theft by quantum computers due to revealed public keys. Hoskinson claimed BIP 361's proposed solution—a hard fork to freeze non-migrated coins—would render around 1.7 million BTC, including Satoshi's estimated 1.1 million, unspendable due to outdated wallet formats. He contrasted Bitcoin's rigid culture with governance models in Cardano, Polkadot, and Ethereum, which he says offer better mechanisms for protocol upgrades. Hoskinson acknowledged the quantum threat as real but argued Bitcoin's ideological inflexibility complicates a effective response.

41% Surge Sends MemeCore Flying: More Gains or Pullback Ahead?

MemeCore's price surged 41.92% to $2.45 following the implementation of two hard forks aimed at reducing transaction fees from 1,500 gwei to 15 gwei, introducing account abstraction, and improving L2 scalability. Trading volume exploded by 112%, reaching $31.79 million, with $2.16 million in liquidations. Technical indicators show strong bullish momentum: MACD is well above the signal line, and the price may test the $2.76 resistance or even break into all-time high territory above $3. However, the RSI of 83.27 suggests the asset is overbought, indicating a potential pullback. Support lies at $2.14. The market shows moderate bullish pressure but is currently neutral in money flow, suggesting possible sideways movement unless stronger inflows or outflows emerge.
