The first full voting pages, Ledger fixes and a reliable Nym mixnet.

Released 23 August 2026, last patch 6.28.1 on 27 August 2026.

Voting pages

The voting engine from 6.27 gets its pages: the list of rounds, the ballot, a review step, the status of a submission, the confirmation and the results. Rounds and options are shown with their titles rather than their ids, your voting power is shown before you confirm, and the confirmation and results pages show the on-chain evidence of every vote.

A submission survives failures of the network, of the vote servers and of the app itself: it fails over between the configured servers, retries transient errors and can be resumed from where it stopped. A round offers Join, Resume, Review or View results depending on where the chain and the wallet are, and a closed round nobody voted in shows a zero tally rather than an empty page.

These pages were rebuilt in 6.31. See the Voting section for the current ones.

Ledger

Transparent-only Ledger accounts can sign again, and hardware signing works on the Ironwood network: the Zondax app only signs v5 transactions, so Zkool builds v5 transactions for hardware accounts.

6.28.1

• Large synchronizations over the Nym mixnet no longer stall. Over the mixnet, the shielded sync runs in 1000 block chunks, each committed on its own, and a lost session only costs the chunk in flight.
• The user name and password of a SOCKS5 proxy URL are used.
• Helper share delivery no longer sticks to the last server that answered.

Also

• Importing an account file derives its Sapling address, and a corrupt stored address is reported at once instead of failing later.
• The Sapling parameters are bundled with the desktop and GraphQL builds, so there is nothing to download before the first shielded transaction.
• The transport selector in Settings fits on narrow screens.
• Closing the Folders page no longer crashes.
