ChainCatcher reports that Zcash activated the Ironwood NU6.3 network upgrade at block height 3,428,143, launching a new shielded pool to enhance network security and make ZEC circulating supply independently verifiable.

After the upgrade, the original Orchard pool is restricted: new funds cannot enter, and existing funds must exit through a turnstile before entering Ironwood. This ensures at the protocol level that pool expenditures do not exceed verifiable income. Ironwood is based on a revised protocol that has been formally verified and independently audited, aiming to guard against risks similar to previous declarative vulnerabilities in Orchard. Wallets supporting Ironwood (such as Zodl 3.8.0) have already provided migration paths, allowing users to transfer Orchard funds to the new pool without changing their address.

According to reports, since the middle of last week, Saudi Arabia has sold approximately 100 million barrels of crude oil to China, India, Japan, and South Korea, with delivery periods covering October and November. At the same time, Saudi Aramco has made a rare commitment in these transactions to handle logistics and transportation, delivering the crude oil directly to Asian customers. Previously, due to soaring oil prices, Asian refineries had been considering reducing operating rates. This large-scale supply has to some extent mitigated the supply risks faced by Asia.
