A new episode is here! The guest is @nuttycom from @zodl_app, discussing Zcash Development and Why Ossification is Death! Some of the highlights of the episode. Zcash Upgrades🎆 Zcash shipped three upgrades this year: a critical bug fix, a formally verified new shielded pool, and NU7, which cuts block time from 75 to 25 seconds. Kris expects that pace to continue, with Tachyon still to come. Hard Forks🍴 Regular forks let Zcash make clean engineering choices instead of shoehorning changes in. Kris rejects the idea that they're centralizing, because anyone can refuse to upgrade, every upgrade so far has had full consensus, and disputes are settled before any code ships. Ossification is death☠️ Asking when Zcash will be done is like asking when Amazon will be done, because "software is only complete if nobody's using it." He sees Bitcoin's refusal to change as its biggest risk This is the tip of the iceberg on what is an in depth discussion on all the topics that we know you would want to hear. https://t.co/CxUJgPzyL4 zcash:native
