The Zcash blockchain stopped producing new blocks for more than four hours on June 3, 2026, halting all new transaction confirmations. The freeze began after block 3,364,601 was created at 5:27 a.m. UTC, an unusual event for a network that typically adds a block every 75 seconds. This interruption effectively paused the entire payment system on the Zcash network. Despite this, Zcash's native token ZEC has surged 8% in the past week and 46% in the last month. The network has not yet issued a public statement about the cause or resolution of the outage, highlighting the technical risks even established cryptocurrencies face.
