Zcash researchers complete formal verification of Ironwood, proving its shielded pool secure against undetectable counterfeiting under stated cryptographic assumptions.

Après la découverte d'une faille critique permettant théoriquement la création illimitée de ZEC contrefaits, Zcash déploie la mise à jour Ironwood pour renforcer la sécurité, introduire un nouveau shielded pool et limiter strictement l'offre de ZEC à 21 millions d'unités.

Zcash developers are proposing a new shielded pool called Ironwood that would close the current Orchard pool to new deposits and introduce a turnstile checkpoint. The move follows the discovery of a vulnerability that could have allowed infinite counterfeit ZEC creation, though no evidence of exploitation or supply change has been found.
