Update your Zcash Zebra nodes, even if you recently updated! Failure to update could result in your Zebra node being stranded on an incorrect network.
🚨 Zebra 4.4.1 is out — a critical security fix for a consensus-vulnerability affecting V5 transactions.
All node operators should upgrade immediately — including those who just updated to 4.4.0.

Our TrueNAS Bitcoin Core app now supports Private Broadcast, a new feature with Bitcoin Core 31.0.
If enabled, transactions are broadcast through single-use Tor or I2P connections, making it much more difficult for other nodes to learn your IP address.

Monero ships Dandelion enabled by default for all nodes, including those who do not use Tor or I2P. This provides greater broadcast privacy for all users who do not use Tor or I2P, and users who wish for the greatest broadcast privacy should additionally use Tor or I2P.
