## Zakura
31+
32+
Zakura is a Zcash full node written in Rust. It syncs and validates the Zcash
33+
blockchain, participates in the peer-to-peer network, and provides RPC access
34+
for applications and infrastructure. It can be installed with Cargo or run as
35+
a Docker container.
36+
37+
Zakura contains a wrapper for Zcashd wallet CLI. Use this approach if you need
38+
additional time to migrate to Zebra and Zallet (or Z3).

44+
[Zebra Snapshots by ValarGroup](https://zebra.valargroup.dev/) provides daily,
45+
checksum-verified Zcash mainnet state snapshots in archive and pruned formats.
46+
These snapshots help bring a Zebra node close to the chain tip without syncing
47+
the entire blockchain from scratch.
