Very impressive improvements. Can't wait.

So what can we do with all the GPU once we go full PoS? Start our own "AI Pool".

Did we skip 6 or is this for the next one after 6?

Introducing Zenith: Zano's move to pure Proof of Stake. @everyone

A new consensus protocol, built on the privacy foundations of Zarcanum.

This isn't a pivot. It's where a road that started in 2013 finally converged. Every attempt to improve our hybrid model kept hitting the same wall: the PoW component. So we changed the question: what does the network look like if that interaction just isn't there?

Zenith is the result of more than 13 years of research into how a network can gain the benefits of modern Proof of Stake while preserving the privacy that users expect from Zano.

What changes after hard fork 7:
🔹 Block time speeds of ~15 seconds, down from one minute
🔹 4 to 6 block confirmations instead of the current 10, carrying stronger security guarantees than the 10 we wait for today
🔹 Typical TX confirmation in 60 to 90 seconds, down from an average of 10 minutes
🔹 Ephemeral blocks keep history light, so more blocks does not mean a heavier chain
🔹 PoW emission gone, 21,600 $ZANO a month that no longer gets partially sold by miners
🔹 Staking stays private, amounts hidden, no permanent link between your outputs and you
