The Zcash ecosystem is split over the Crosslink upgrade, which proposes a hybrid proof-of-work and proof-of-stake system to improve speed and security. Key developers disagree, with some warning that adding staking increases complexity and risks without sufficient benefits. The proposal lacks broad community support and remains at the prototype stage. Meanwhile, Zcash will implement Network Upgrade 7 (NU7) on November 5, increasing block speed by 3 times, though finality times will still lag behind faster chains like Solana. The Crosslink upgrade may be reconsidered after NU7, but its future is uncertain.
