<PRE>Hello everyone! Here's what the Zcash Foundation has been up to this month.
|
|
As usual, it's in roughly chronological order; this time I included dates
|
|
to make that more clear.
|
|
|
|
2/5
|
|
The Foundation's statement on the counterfeiting vulnerability found in
|
|
Zcash, which we published after the Electric Coin Company's disclosure:

Ian Miers' article on the weaknesses of decoy-based privacy schemes was
|
|

|

|

|
|
Feedback is more than welcome! We are writing a blog post, to be published
|
|
soon, explaining why ZIPs matter and their role in Zcash governance. ZIPs
|
|
will be key to protocol development going forward.
