Zano, an open-source cryptocurrency focused on privacy, is introducing Obscura, a platform for creating, managing, and trading NFTs like art and music on its blockchain, emphasizing confidentiality in ownership and transfers.

The platform aims to address issues in traditional NFT marketplaces by enabling private transactions, which could prevent market manipulation and protect creators from censorship, especially for controversial content.

This development aligns with growing concerns about privacy in the NFT space, as highlighted by a 2022 Analytics Insight report noting that NFTs can pose security and privacy risks due to blockchain data like addresses and identifiers.

Did you know that the next Zano desktop wallet release will include a remote node feature?

Zano’s upcoming desktop wallet release introduces a remote node feature, allowing users to access the wallet instantly without downloading the 10 GB blockchain, enhancing user experience by reducing storage, CPU, and RAM demands.

This update maintains the option for users to run a full node, which is essential for staking ZANO, balancing convenience with the network’s security needs.

The 5th Zano hard fork officially went live

The hard fork enables Ethereum-style (EVM) signatures, facilitating integration with existing threshold signature solutions and supporting bridging systems like Confidential Layer, which uses EVM-family toolkits for privacy-focused blockchain interactions.

It addresses previous technical issues, such as invalid and stuck transactions, and prevents old-format transactions from disrupting the network, ensuring smoother future upgrades.

The update is critical for Zano’s integration with the Confidential Layer bridge and smart contract functionality, enhancing the blockchain’s stability and capacity for multi-asset privacy tokens.
