Yes Deshielding is to be expected rn there's no reason to be sitting in a soon to be deprecated pool Anyone who points to this as evidence the exploit happened is retarded Btw CipherScan very gud explorer with basically every ZEC metric in existence

Four years. Two lines of code. 72 hours to fix. One week to come back stronger. CipherScan Weekly #12 is a special edition. Full story inside. cipherscan.app/newsletter/we…

A new pool is coming and Cipherscan will be ready for it. Congrats to the Zcash teams. Unmatched. As always.

cipherscan explorer working now 👍

Cipherscan is working, check it out here: cipherscan.app/blocks you can explorer all the blocks since the fork :)

Cipherscan app is showing latest blocks now

Now upgrading to Zebra 5.0. Resyncing from scratch, Cipherscan will back online soon. Impressed by how fast the Zcash team moved on this. Discovery to fix in days, not weeks.

Hey @cipherscan_app. I'm making a few changes to the cipherscan repo for my needs for dev: github.com/dannywillems/ciph…. Everything is tracked in the changelog, updated in a branch `dev`. You should be able to cherry-pick changes (or merge `dev` into `main`) if you want to.

.@ZcashNames: ZcashNames: Privacy, Identity, and the Challenge of Making Zcash Usable Zcash has long occupied a unique position in the cryptocurrency ecosystem due to its deep focus on financial privacy. Through advanced zero-knowledge proof technology known as zk-SNARKs, Zcash enables shielded transactions that can conceal the sender, recipient, and transaction amount while still maintaining blockchain integrity. Yet despite its sophisticated privacy architecture, Zcash has historically struggled with one major obstacle: usability. Shielded addresses are long, complex, and difficult for ordinary users to manage comfortably. Sharing or verifying these addresses can be intimidating, increasing the risk of mistakes and limiting mainstream adoption. For many users, the experience feels far less intuitive than sending a message or sharing a username online. ZcashNames (ZNS) was created to solve this problem. ZcashNames is a decentralized naming system that allows users to replace complicated Zcash wallet addresses with simple, human-readable identities such as alice.zcash. Built as an evolution of the earlier zcash.me platform, ZNS stores registrations and name mappings directly on the Zcash blockchain using shielded transactions. The goal is straightforward but ambitious: preserve Zcash’s strong privacy guarantees while dramatically improving user experience. Instead of copying and pasting long strings of cryptographic text, users can transact using readable names. This reduces friction, lowers the likelihood of address-entry mistakes, and makes shielded payments feel more approachable to non-technical users. The project also attempts to minimize centralized dependencies. Registrations are anchored on-chain using shielded Zcash transactions, leveraging zero-knowledge proofs for tamper resistance and ownership verification. Unlike many naming systems that depend on recurring subscription payments, ZcashNames instead uses an activity-based ownership model in which names remain active through continued usage rather than mandatory renewal fees. As of mid-2026, the project remains in active beta development, with ecosystem integrations and community experimentation continuing to evolve. Support has emerged from multiple parts of the Zcash ecosystem, including wallet developers, explorers, and privacy advocates. Existing and desired integrations include wallets such as Edge Wallet, Zingo!, and Zucchini Wallet, alongside ecosystem contributors such as CipherScan and ZecHub. Zechariah: The Vision Behind ZcashNames The primary force behind ZcashNames is James Joseph, better known online as “Zechariah,” operating under the handle @zcashme and the identity Zechariah.zcash. Unlike many prominent figures in cryptocurrency privacy projects who focus primarily on cryptography or protocol engineering, Zechariah’s work has centered on usability, onboarding, identity systems, and community growth. Since at least 2020, he has consistently advocated for making shielded transactions practical for ordinary users rather than limiting privacy technology to technically sophisticated audiences. His earlier work on identity-oriented experiments such as Zack Pages helped shape the philosophy that later evolved into ZcashNames: combining privacy-preserving infrastructure with intuitive, human-readable identity. Zechariah also pursued governance participation within the Zcash ecosystem through involvement with the Major Grants Review Committee (MGRC), where he promoted ideas surrounding transparency, accountability, and measurable ecosystem growth. His public commentary frequently emphasizes real-world adoption and user acquisition as critical indicators of success. Technically, the project has involved collaboration with engineer craftsoldier and support from broader ecosystem contributors, including developers, ambassadors, advisors, and community organizations....
