Winklevoss-Owned Gemini Upgrades Zcash Software for Faster 25-Second Blocks

Zakura Nodes Sync With Network in Just Over Six Hours on Gemini Deployments

New Zakura nodes reached network synchronization in just over six hours in deployments operated by cryptocurrency exchange Gemini, a significant improvement over the exchange’s previous software.

Faster Network Synchronization

Gemini’s earlier node software took close to a full day to catch up with the network. The reduced synchronization time means the new Zakura implementation completed the process in roughly half the time.

Operational Impact

Faster node synchronization can help reduce deployment times and allow infrastructure to become operational more quickly. The available information does not specify which network the Zakura nodes support or identify the technical changes responsible for the improvement.
