It is recommended to force a full node upgrade after the fix; rejecting synchronization from older versions directly is safer.

Compared to Monero’s supply verifiability, Zcash really messed up this time.

30% is considered polite; if you've really been exploited, the coin price could drop to zero.

If this bug is exploited by hackers, it can't be traced on the blockchain at all; upon closer inspection, it's terrifying.

Does the new upgrade require proving the total supply? If so, does that compromise the previous privacy features?

Opus Security has made a great contribution this time, but was it too late to realize it?
