    Tachyon's first consensus-facing ZIP is being published tomorrow. Here's a sneak peek into the protocol's design, the motivations beind each change, and some of the novel mathematics. Zcash is accelerating.

    We condensed Tachyon’s design into a video that walks anyone familiar with Zcash’s protocol through each change.

    I think Justin Drake's latest alarmism/vagueposting is going to do a ton of damage in multiple ways. It's basically a huge self-own for their own advocacy work on quantum stuff. Threats from quantum/AI are real, and teams throughout this industry are making considered decisions

    Zcash is already a "bunker." Largest privacy pool, quantum recoverability, PQ-privacy defenses, and more on the way. But the real reason is that Zcash devs think years ahead, build defenses long before people start panicking about them, and react quickly to new risks (AI etc.)

    Do the labs have better algorithms for breaking crypto? Independent of the answer, the most important thing is to have crypto agility. Zcash has proven this, with 3 upgrades happening in 6 months, and Tachyon planned for January. The protocol design has plans for how to turn off

    Zcash extends its lead in pursuing perfection using formal verification. In the future you won't audit code, you'll formally verify it and then audit the much smaller theorems. (The future is now.)

    We hired @zksecurityXYZ to audit Ironwood's formal verification. Rather than looking for security bugs, they tried to *add* bugs to see if the formal verification could catch them! Here's our summary, along with the report: zakura.com/engineering/ad…

    Awesome. Cake Wallet is now using @ZakuraZcash on the backend, and Foundry is now using it for zcashinfo.com. Gemini added support a few days ago as well. Zakura is scaling Zcash!
