Zcash for Chainlink: from a privacy coin to an oracle token
This pair turns Zcash into LINK, the ERC-20 token of the Chainlink oracle network. Apps rely on Chainlink for price feeds and other off-chain data, and node operators are paid in LINK for supplying it. The swap suits ZEC holders who want LINK in an Ethereum wallet they control, such as MetaMask, Rabby or a Ledger, with no account.
Zcash has transparent addresses (t1 or t3) and shielded ones (Sapling addresses starting with zs, and unified addresses starting with u1). Send the deposit from a transparent address. If your ZEC is shielded, move the amount to a t-address in your wallet first and wait for that transfer to confirm. Zcash blocks arrive about every 75 seconds, the deposit is usually credited in 10 to 20 minutes, and most swaps finish in 20 to 60 minutes.
Tips for this swap
- Paste an Ethereum address for the LINK (0x plus 40 hexadecimal characters). A Zcash address cannot hold ERC-20 tokens, and you will need a little ETH on the Ethereum address before you can move the LINK.
- Enter the transparent t1 or t3 address you send from as the refund address, so any refund comes back as ZEC to a wallet you control.
- Unshield only the amount you plan to swap. The rest of your ZEC can stay in your shielded address.
Can I swap ZEC to LINK without KYC?
Yes. Standard swaps need no account, email or ID. Enter your Ethereum address and a transparent Zcash refund address, check the floating rate and send the ZEC.
Is the LINK private like shielded ZEC?
No. LINK is an ERC-20 token, so the payout and every later transfer are visible on Etherscan. Zcash's privacy applies only to ZEC held and sent in shielded addresses.

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 lets Zcash users choose a shielded transfer when they want privacy and a transparent one when they do not. ZEC has been instrumental in advancing cryptographic research that now underpins many Layer 2 scaling solutions.
What is Link?
Chainlink (LINK) is the leading decentralized oracle network, providing real-world data to smart contracts on virtually every major blockchain. Oracles are essential infrastructure for DeFi — without them, smart contracts can't access price feeds, weather data, random numbers, or any other off-chain information. LINK tokens are used to pay node operators who provide and validate this data. Chainlink's Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP) is also expanding its role in connecting different blockchains. LINK is one of the most widely integrated protocols in crypto.
Why Swap ZEC for LINK?
Zcash privacy is optional: it supports both transparent (public) and shielded (fully private) transactions via zk-SNARKs. Coins sent from a private balance keep their history out of public view. Swapping ZEC to LINK without KYC means there is no account or identity linking your private holdings to your new Link.
Your LINK arrives as a fresh transaction on the Ethereum (ERC-20) blockchain with no visible connection to your ZEC holdings. No KYC means no identity link.
Link is used for connecting smart contracts to real-world data.
