Shielded Labs urges the Zcash community to accelerate the decision-making process for the long-term network sustainability mechanism (NSM) and warns that the network has recently had the opportunity to attract patient capital. The organization believes that explicitly defining future security and emission mechanisms at the protocol level can serve as an investment signal for ZEC. Recent polls show that users support the fee burning mechanism, but reactions to the "issuance smoothing" mechanism are mixed. Shielded Labs plans to promote some mechanisms with clear support in the next upgrade, such as ZIP 233 and 235, and emphasizes that immediate action is necessary due to upcoming versions like Tachyon that may increase transaction fees. The trading price of ZEC is $216.59.
