How do I exchange XMR to ZEC?
Pick XMR and ZEC
Pick XMR in “You send” and ZEC in “You get”, then enter the amount. The box shows how much ZEC you get after all fees, and the minimum for this pair.
Paste your Zcash address
Paste the Zcash address that should receive the ZEC: it starts with t1 or t3 for a transparent address. Wallets that work: Zodl (formerly Zashi), Zkool or Zingo. Then enter the Monero address you send XMR from; a refund, if ever needed, goes there.
Send XMR on Monero
Send exactly the amount shown from your own Monero wallet to the one-time deposit address, on the Monero network.
Receive ZEC
Your ZEC is paid out once your XMR deposit confirms, and Zcash then confirms it in about 10–20 minutes. Most swaps finish within minutes. The exact time depends on how fast each network confirms your deposit. Follow each step on the status page with your swap ID.
Monero to Zcash: two privacy models, one swap
XMR to ZEC goes straight from one privacy coin to the other, with no Bitcoin step and no account. Monero hides the sender, the receiver and the amount of every transaction. Zcash gives the same protection only to shielded transfers; its transparent addresses work like Bitcoin's. People make this swap to hold both coins or to pay someone who takes ZEC.
Your XMR deposit hides the sender and the amount on the Monero chain. It is usually credited within about 20 minutes, and most swaps pay the ZEC within 20 to 60 minutes. The payout lands at a transparent t-address, so the amount received is public until you move it into your wallet's shielded pool. Zcash adds a block about every 75 seconds, so that shielding step confirms quickly.
Tips for this swap
- Copy the transparent receiving address (t1 or t3) from Zodl (formerly Zashi), Zkool or Zingo, not the shielded u1 address the wallet offers first.
- Shield the ZEC before you use it. Spending straight from the t-address links the payout to wherever the coins go next.
- Enter a Monero address from your own wallet as the refund address; Monero needs no payment ID.
Can I swap Monero to Zcash without KYC?
Yes. Neither side asks you to register: an XMR to ZEC swap needs no account, email or ID. Paste a t1 or t3 address for the ZEC, a Monero address for refunds, and send the XMR at the floating rate shown.
Is ZEC as private as XMR after the swap?
Only once it is shielded. Transfers between shielded Zcash addresses hide the sender, the receiver and the amount, much as Monero does for every transfer. ZEC left at a transparent address is as visible as Bitcoin.
Common mistakes with XMR to ZEC
- Sending XMR from a wallet that is not fully synced.
- Pasting a unified (u1...) address instead of a transparent t1 or t3 address.
- Reusing an old t-address that already links to other activity.
