Zakura, the developer behind a Zcash full node client, released an open-source library called Zakura Common that compresses shielded transaction creation from over three seconds to under 200 milliseconds. Mobile proof generation is now more than 14 times faster, while desktop performance improved by over five times. Sinsemilla hashing saw a 21-fold improvement and zk-SNARK verification now runs four to eight times quicker. The native ZEC token jumped approximately 5% following the announcement, and compatible wallets can integrate the library without requiring any network changes.
