Zcash implemented the Ironwood upgrade on July 28, 2026, requiring users with shielded balances in the old Orchard pool to migrate their funds to the new Ironwood pool. This migration is necessary due to a critical security flaw found in the Orchard pool that could have allowed undetectable counterfeit ZEC. The migration is user-initiated through wallet updates and can take hours or days, as balances move in small portions to protect privacy. Users should keep their wallets open and avoid sending full balances during migration. Balances left in the old pool risk becoming inaccessible if the old protocol is eventually shut down, and support for the old pool will diminish over time. Exchange-held ZEC is managed by providers and generally unaffected by this migration process.
