The Zcash Basis is happy to announce the discharge of Zebra model 1.5.0.
This launch features a “Minimal Viable Product” (MVP) implementation of shielded scanning, with a brand new “zebra-scan” crate and behind an experimental “shielded-scan” function. This marks step one in the direction of full help for shielded scanning in Zebra and we’re excited to proceed constructing out the performance. Ongoing growth is tracked in challenge #7728.
Necessary Safety Warning
This new function is for experimental use solely and has recognized safety points. We suggest that you just do NOT use common or delicate viewing keys with Zebra’s experimental scanning function. You also needs to NOT use this function on a shared machine. If you happen to do need to do this out, we recommend that you just generate new keys for experimental use.
Additionally included on this launch:
- A repair for a panic that was launched in Zebra v1.4.0, which occurs in uncommon circumstances when studying cached sprout or historical past bushes.
- Additional enhancements to how Zebra recovers from community interruptions and prevents potential community hangs.
- Enhancements to restrict the flexibility of artificial nodes to unfold all through the community via Zebra, to deal with a few of the Ziggurat crimson workforce report.
As of this launch, Zebra requires Rust 1.73 to construct.
