What is PAX Gold?

PAX Gold (PAXG) is a digital asset backed by physical gold reserves held in custody by Paxos Trust Company. Each PAXG token represents one fine troy ounce of a gold bar. It allows users to own and trade gold without the need for physical storage. PAXG tokens are used for investment and can be redeemed for physical gold. Use GhostSwap to convert PAXG to hundreds of other digital assets with no account, no email and no ID for standard swaps.

What is Zcash?

Zcash (ZEC) is a privacy-focused cryptocurrency that pioneered the use of zero-knowledge proofs (zk-SNARKs) in blockchain technology. Unlike Monero where privacy is mandatory, Zcash gives users the choice between transparent transactions (publicly visible, like Bitcoin) and shielded transactions (fully private — hiding sender, receiver, and amount). This flexibility makes Zcash suitable for users who want privacy when they need it while maintaining the option for transparent compliance. ZEC has been instrumental in advancing cryptographic research that now underpins many Layer 2 scaling solutions. Swap ZEC on GhostSwap for a private exchange experience — no KYC, no account, no trace.

Why Swap PAXG for ZEC?

Swapping PAX Gold to Zcash on GhostSwap moves your funds into a privacy coin without KYC or account creation. PAX Gold is transparent — transfers are public on Etherscan.

Shield your financial activity

Zcash privacy is optional — supports both transparent (public) and shielded (fully private) transactions via zk-SNARKs. Use the private option in your wallet to keep balances and payments out of public view.

No account linking the two coins

Your PAXG history stays public on the Ethereum blockchain. The ZEC arrives at your transparent Zcash address, and your wallet can then move it into the shielded pool, where amounts and addresses are hidden. A no-KYC swap adds no account or ID linking the two.

Low fees on the Zcash network

Zcash fees are minimal, making ZEC practical for regular private transactions — not just large transfers.

No identity verification required

GhostSwap processes your PAXG to ZEC swap without KYC, sign-ups, or personal data collection. The PAXG you send is still visible on the Ethereum blockchain; the privacy starts once the ZEC is in your wallet.

Exchange PAXG for ZEC on GhostSwap with no account and no sign-up. Most swaps finish in 10–25 minutes after you send your PAXG.

PAXG to ZEC: questions and answers

Everything you need to know about exchanging PAXG to ZEC on GhostSwap.

How long does it take to swap PAXG to ZEC on GhostSwap?

Most PAXG to ZEC swaps finish in 10–25 minutes. Your PAXG deposit needs about 2–5 minutes to confirm on Ethereum; after that the ZEC is sent to your wallet and Zcash confirms it in about 10–20 minutes. Busy networks can add a few minutes.

How much ZEC do I get for 1 PAXG?

At 2 Oct 2026, 09:24 UTC, 1 PAXG swapped to about 2.9729 ZEC on GhostSwap, after the service fee and the ZEC network fee. The rate floats with the market, so the exchange box shows the exact live amount before you send.

Do I need KYC or an account to exchange PAXG to ZEC?

No. GhostSwap has no accounts: you paste the Zcash address that should receive the ZEC, send PAXG from your own wallet, and the ZEC goes straight to that address. No email, phone number or ID upload.

What are the fees for converting PAX Gold to Zcash?

The GhostSwap fee is already included in the rate in the exchange box, so the ZEC amount you see is what you receive. On top of that, your wallet needs a little ETH to pay the Ethereum network fee for sending PAXG.

What wallet should I use to receive ZEC?

To receive Zcash from your swap, we recommend using Zodl (formerly Zashi), Zkool or Zingo, which can all move ZEC into the shielded pool. Make sure your wallet supports the Zcash network before starting the exchange. Double-check your ZEC address before confirming — cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

What format is the ZEC address?

Use a Zcash address: it starts with t1 or t3 for a transparent address. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand.

Can I track my PAXG to ZEC swap?

Yes. After initiating your swap, GhostSwap provides a transaction status page where you can monitor progress in real-time. You can also track your PAXG payment on Etherscan (https://etherscan.io) and your incoming ZEC on Blockchair (https://blockchair.com/zcash).

Is it safe to exchange PAXG for ZEC on GhostSwap?

GhostSwap is non-custodial: there is no account balance holding your coins. Your PAXG deposit is converted and the ZEC is sent straight to the Zcash address you enter, so check that address twice — Zcash transfers cannot be reversed.

Can my PAXG to ZEC swap be traced?

Your PAXG transaction to GhostSwap is visible on the Ethereum blockchain since PAX Gold is transparent — transfers are public on Etherscan. However, once your ZEC arrives in your wallet, Zcash is optional — supports both transparent (public) and shielded (fully private) transactions via zk-SNARKs. By swapping PAXG to ZEC on a no-KYC exchange like GhostSwap, there is no account linking the two transactions together.

How does a cross-chain PAXG to ZEC swap work?

PAX Gold lives on Ethereum and Zcash on Zcash, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your PAXG on Ethereum and pays native ZEC on Zcash, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees.

What happens if my PAXG to ZEC exchange fails?

If a swap cannot be completed, the PAXG is refunded to the Ethereum address you entered as the sender address. If something looks stuck, contact support with your swap ID from the status page. Most problems come from sending a different amount than shown or using an address on the wrong network.
