⚡️⚠ ALERT - Zcash developers reveal that a critical vulnerability present since May 2022 could have allowed for the unlimited and undetectable creation of ZEC.
The bug was fixed on June 1, but it is impossible to determine with certainty whether it was exploited due to the network’s privacy mechanisms.
➡ ZEC has consequently lost nearly 36% in 24 hours.
