$ZEC just crashed 42% and retail is asking why. 👁️
#Claude Opus 4.8 helped find a 4-year-old soundness bug in Zcash's Orchard pool.
The flaw could create unlimited, undetectable counterfeit #zec .
Researcher #TaylorHornby discovered it May 29. Emergency hard fork deployed June 3. Fixed in 5 days.
Here's the part no one can answer:
Because #Orchard is a shielded pool, there's no cryptographic proof it was never exploited. The turnstile supply check shows no red flags — but that's not the same as proof.
The feature that made #zcash valuable is the exact reason we can't fully audit what happened inside that pool.
A privacy coin can't prove its own supply. That's the core problem.
