Zcash’s Orchard Vulnerability Leaves Users Unable to Verify ZEC Circulating Supply, Says Zooko Wilcox
Zcash founder Zooko Wilcox has confirmed that a vulnerability in the Orchard shielded pool prevents users from independently verifying whether the flaw was exploited to create counterfeit ZEC. The Ironwood upgrade will introduce a patched Orchard pool with turnstile mechanisms to prevent excess ZEC from migrating from the compromised pool, though Wilcox states exploitation remains unlikely.
