Zcash Network Experiences Rare Four-Hour Block Production Halt
- The Zcash network stopped creating new blocks for over four hours on June 3.
- The last block produced was number 3,364,601 at 5:27 AM UTC.
- Typically, Zcash generates a new block approximately every 75 seconds.
- Despite the pause, ZEC has surged by about 8% over the past week and gained a total of 46% in the last month.
This incident highlights potential technical issues even within established cryptocurrencies like Zcash. The temporary halt in block production prevented any new transactions from being confirmed during that period.
