ZEC

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.

PYUSD

What is PayPal USD?

PayPal USD (PYUSD) is a stablecoin issued by PayPal, pegged 1:1 to the U.S. Dollar. It enables users to transact in a stable digital currency within the PayPal ecosystem and beyond. PYUSD aims to bridge traditional finance and cryptocurrencies, offering seamless transactions and interoperability.

Do I need KYC or an account to exchange ZEC to PYUSD?
No. GhostSwap has no accounts: you paste the Ethereum address that should receive the PYUSD, send ZEC from your own wallet, and the PYUSD goes straight to that address. No email, phone number or ID upload.
What are the fees for converting Zcash to PayPal USD?
The GhostSwap fee is already included in the rate in the exchange box, so the PYUSD 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 PYUSD?
To receive PayPal USD from your swap, we recommend using MetaMask, Rabby or a Ledger. Make sure your wallet supports the Ethereum (ERC-20) network before starting the exchange. Double-check your PYUSD address before confirming — cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.
What format is the PYUSD address?
Use an Ethereum address: it starts with 0x followed by 40 hexadecimal characters. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand. Sending PYUSD to an address on another network can lose the coins.
Can I track my ZEC to PYUSD 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 PYUSD on Etherscan (https://etherscan.io).
Is it safe to exchange ZEC for PYUSD on GhostSwap?
GhostSwap is non-custodial: there is no account balance holding your coins. Your ZEC deposit is converted and the PYUSD is sent straight to the Ethereum address you enter, so check that address twice — Ethereum transfers cannot be reversed.
Will my PYUSD 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 PYUSD you receive will appear as a fresh transaction on the Ethereum (ERC-20) blockchain with no visible connection to your ZEC holdings. GhostSwap requires no KYC, so there's no account linking the two.
Why swap ZEC to PYUSD?
Converting Zcash to PayPal USD moves the value into a dollar-pegged stablecoin in your own wallet, without using a centralized exchange or going through KYC.
Is it legal to own and swap Zcash?
In most countries, yes: owning and swapping Zcash is not banned, although some centralized exchanges have stopped listing privacy coins in certain regions. Privacy is a legitimate need, and using privacy-enhancing tools is not illegal in itself. You are responsible for following the cryptocurrency rules where you live.
What happens if my ZEC to PYUSD exchange fails?
If a swap cannot be completed, the ZEC is refunded to the Zcash 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.
