Zcash holders approve 25-second blocks in network poll

CoinTelegraph reported that Zcash token holders voted to shorten the network's block generation interval to 25 seconds. The measure passed with nearly 99% support from participating ZEC holders.

The approved change modifies the technical timing of the blockchain without altering the asset's economic rules. Specifically, ZEC issuance and halving schedules remain unchanged. This separation distinguishes the recent vote from earlier proposals that may have adjusted both variables simultaneously.

The outcome reflects a community preference for faster transaction confirmation times while retaining the established halving cadence governing new coin creation. Implementation of the 25-second block time will proceed based on this mandate from the ZEC holder base.
