Exchange Zcash (ZEC) instantly, no KYC
Swap ZEC for Bitcoin, Monero, USDT or anything else on the desk — or get ZEC with them — without an account. One rule to know first: payouts go to a transparent address.

What 1 ZEC gets you
Quoted by the desk at for a swap worth about 1,000 USD, network fees included — which is why the two columns differ: the gap is the real cost of a round trip, not a hidden line. Pick a row to load it in the module, or choose another ZEC network below.
Networks
Where ZEC lives, and what each address looks like
Same ticker, different blockchains — not interchangeable. The network you pick here must be the one your wallet, or the platform you are sending to, actually uses.
| Network | Address format | Memo / tag | Rate | Available to | Swap |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Zcash main | starts with t1 or t3 (transparent only) | No | Fixed or floating | Send and receive | BTC → ZEC |
| BEP20 | starts with 0x — 42 characters | No | Fixed or floating | Send and receive | BTC → ZEC BEP20 |
Before you send
What to know about ZEC
Zcash launched in 2016 on Bitcoin's codebase with optional zero-knowledge privacy: shielded transactions hide sender, recipient and amount, transparent ones work like Bitcoin's. Its supply is capped at 21 million coins and a block arrives every 75 seconds.
-
01
Payouts go to a transparent address
Zcash has transparent addresses (t1… or t3…), which work like Bitcoin’s, and shielded ones (zs1…, or unified addresses starting with u1) that hide the amount and both parties. This desk pays out to transparent addresses only: a shielded one is refused by the address check before anything is created.
-
02
Shield it yourself on arrival
Want the coins private? Receive them on a transparent address of your own wallet, then shield them there — wallets that support shielded ZEC do it in a single transaction.
-
03
Your deposit can come from a shielded balance
Sending from a shielded balance works: the transaction then shows the amount and the deposit address, but not where the coins came from.
-
04
75-second blocks
A Zcash block arrives about every 75 seconds, so a ZEC deposit confirms faster than a Bitcoin one.

FAQ
Zcash swaps, in short
Using it
What is the minimum ZEC swap?
On ZEC → BTC it is 0.0142647 ZEC right now. The desk sets it live for every pair, and it moves with the network fee of the receiving chain — below it, that fee would eat the swap. The module always prints the minimum of the pair you have selected.
Which ZEC networks can I use?
2 of them: Zcash, BEP20. They are not interchangeable — the payout network must be the one your wallet or platform uses. The table above gives the address format of each.
Do I need a memo or destination tag?
No. ZEC does not use memos or tags on any of these networks: the address alone identifies the recipient.
Money & privacy
Can I lock the rate on a ZEC swap?
Yes, whenever the other side of the pair supports it too — pick Fixed in the module. The rate is locked when the exchange is created and a countdown starts for your deposit. Fixed or floating: how to choose.
What does a ZEC swap cost?
Two things come out of a swap: the network fees of the two blockchains involved, and our margin, which is already inside the rate. Both are included in every price on this page — nothing is added after you confirm. Swapping small costs proportionally more, because network fees are fixed amounts.
Do I need an account or ID to swap ZEC?
No. There is no account to create and we never ask for identity documents, at any amount. The one case where a swap can be held is spelled out in the AML policy rather than hidden — and explained in plain words on the no-KYC page.
