新聞本文：
As told by Monero (XMR) developers over the weekend, on July 16, the Monero
network passed a community consensus to initiate a mainnet hard fork at block
height 2,668,888. The popular privacy coin's hard fork will include
increasing the chain's ring size from 11 to 16, adding view tags to outputs
to reduce wallet scanning time, introducing bulletproofs and implementing fee
changes.
XMR預計於高度2,668,888時啟動分岔，將環形簽名的環尺寸由11調整至16、
在輸出中添加可視標籤用來減少錢包掃描時間；並引入防彈和實施費用變更。

Raising the number of ring signatures is meant to ensure that transactions
have a larger anonymity set, making it harder to reverse engineer the sources
of a transaction. One developer pointed out that view tags could reduce
network scanning times by up to 40% in deriving the output public key for its
anonymous transactions. Changes were approved for Monero's maximum block size
to grow at 14x per year instead of 32x (which affects its fee value).
Finally, Bulletproofs, a zero-knowledge proving system, will be used for
range proofs in Monero. The feature will result in faster encryption and
verification on the blockchain.
增加環形簽名的數量是為了確保交易具有更大的匿名集。
(開發人員指出)可視標籤可以將網絡掃描時間減少多達40%。
零知識證明的防彈系統將在區塊鏈上實現更快的加密和驗證。

Cointelegraph previously reported that privacy coins have been surging lately
as it appears that family funds and individuals investors are increasingly
holding XMR as a hedge amid recent market turmoil. The topic of privacy coins
has been controversial among the crypto community. Some point to their
ability to ensure greater anonymity during transactions, while others raise
concerns about using XMR to shield illicit transactions and its alleged
embracement by extremist groups. Last year, Kraken delisted XMR for its U.K.
customers, citing regulatory pressure.


評論：
本次分岔不會產生新的硬幣，有需要的人請記得及時更換miner

對快速的驗證與更便宜的費用當然有利於未來人類使用以及XMR的推廣，
雖然再怎麼比還是比不上一些目標是拿來當零錢用的加密貨幣，
不過各有所長嘛，相信一些灰灰的市場還是有XMR的一席之地。
