Zcash developers have proposed reducing the network's block interval from 25 seconds to 20 seconds to accelerate transaction confirmations, especially for fast-use cases like payments and exchanges. This change, part of the draft Network Upgrade 7.1, aims to improve speed while maintaining Zcash's issuance schedule and 21 million supply cap. The proposal also includes reducing shielded action limits to ease network load. The upgrade follows the recent Network Upgrade 7, which cut block times from 75 to 25 seconds and established a security reserve. The new proposal is open for community discussion and governance voting.
