    Pick ZEC in “You send” and OP in “You get”, then enter the amount. The box shows how much OP you get after all fees, and the minimum for this pair.

  2. Paste your OP Mainnet address

    Paste the OP Mainnet address that should receive the OP: it starts with 0x followed by 40 hexadecimal characters. Wallets that work: MetaMask or Rabby. Then enter the Zcash address you send ZEC from; a refund, if ever needed, goes there.

  3. Send ZEC on Zcash

    Send exactly the amount shown from your own Zcash wallet to the one-time deposit address, on the Zcash network.

    Your OP is usually paid out 20–60 minutes after you send your ZEC, and OP Mainnet then confirms it in about a minute. Follow each step on the status page with your swap ID.

Common mistakes with ZEC to OP

  • Sending from a shielded balance instead of a transparent t-address.
  • Reusing an old t-address that already links to other activity.
  • Sending from an exchange account, so the sender address isn't yours and a refund can't reach you.
  • Pasting an address from another network: the OP address starts with 0x followed by 40 hexadecimal characters.

ZEC to OP: questions and answers

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

Can I send ZEC from a shielded balance?
Send from a transparent address. If your ZEC is shielded, unshield the amount to a new t-address first, then send.
How long does it take to swap ZEC to OP on GhostSwap?
Most ZEC to OP swaps are paid out within 20–60 minutes: the ZEC deposit needs about 10–20 minutes to confirm on Zcash, then the OP is sent to your wallet, and OP Mainnet confirms the payout in about a minute. Busy networks can add a few minutes.
How much is 1 ZEC in OP?
At 22 Oct 2026, 23:40 UTC, 1 ZEC swapped to about 10,205.95 OP on GhostSwap, after the service fee. The minimum for this pair is about 0.025 ZEC. The rate floats with the market until your ZEC deposit confirms, so the exchange box shows the exact amount before you send.
Do I need KYC or an account to exchange ZEC to OP?
No. GhostSwap has no accounts: you paste the OP Mainnet address that should receive the OP, send ZEC from your own wallet, and the OP goes straight to that address. No email, phone number or ID upload.
What are the fees for converting Zcash to Optimism?
The GhostSwap fee is already included in the rate in the exchange box, so the OP amount you see is what you receive. On top of that, the Zcash network fee for your deposit is paid in ZEC by your wallet.
What wallet should I use to receive OP?
To receive Optimism from your swap, we recommend using MetaMask or Rabby. Make sure your wallet supports the OP Mainnet (Ethereum layer 2) network before starting the exchange. Double-check your OP address before confirming, cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.
What format is the OP address?
Use an OP Mainnet address: it starts with 0x followed by 40 hexadecimal characters. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand. Sending OP to an address on another network can lose the coins.
Can I track my ZEC to OP 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 ZEC payment on Blockchair (https://blockchair.com/zcash) and your incoming OP on Optimistic Etherscan (https://optimistic.etherscan.io).
Is it safe to exchange ZEC for OP on GhostSwap?
GhostSwap has no accounts and no stored balance: your ZEC deposit is converted and the OP is sent straight to the OP Mainnet address you enter, so check that address twice, OP Mainnet transfers cannot be reversed.
Will my OP be linked to my ZEC?
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. The OP you receive will appear as a fresh transaction on the OP Mainnet (Ethereum layer 2) blockchain with no visible connection to your ZEC holdings. GhostSwap requires no KYC, so there's no account linking the two.
