Estimated coin impact

Scores are not price-change percentages. High impact means a score of +70 or more, or -70 or less.

Zcash Ships Security Updates to Fix Node-Crash, Consensus-Split Risks Zcash has released zcashd v6.12.1 and the Zcash Foundation has released Zebra v4.3.1, patching four vulnerabilities, including an Orchard action-encoding issue that could crash nodes and a related risk of consensus divergence between the two clients. Mining pools running both implementations have already deployed the fixes, and developers noted no evidence of exploitation, with user funds and privacy unaffected and no ZEC supply inflation possible; users are advised to upgrade. https://x.com/zodl_co/status/2045242438647009418
