THORChain experienced a fault in matching outgoing Zcash (ZEC) transactions, leading to deductions of about 140 RUNE from bonds of 18 node accounts, despite no user or vault funds being lost. These bonds are collateral to secure THORChain's vaults, which facilitate cross-chain asset swaps. The protocol paused native ZEC swaps due to this fault, interrupting ZEC trading routes. A proposed upgrade (v3.21.0) aims to fix the issue by treating certain Zcash addresses as equivalent, with activation expected around October 23. Native ZEC swaps will resume only after the trading halt is lifted.
