Nighthawks Roadmap for Zcash
summary
Nighthawk lays out a mobile-first roadmap: a relaunch of the shielded by default wallet in coming weeks, a five-person core team, and prior delivery of globally distributed Kubernetes infrastructure across four continents powering the lightwalletd.com service used by 30+ projects. Delivered tools include an open-source Zcash block explorer (NU5-aware, no trackers) and Android/iOS wallets; planned work covers Zebra integration, Tor/Nim network privacy, send-to-many, shielded messaging, watch/tablet clients, and protocol changes tied to ZIPs 313/315/317. Delays are blamed on reliance on ECC for upstream SDKs and funding limits.
