ZEC to ETH: questions and answers
How do I swap ZEC to ETH without KYC?
Enter the ZEC amount on this page, paste your ETH address and send your ZEC to the deposit address shown. AltoSwap has no accounts and asks for no identity documents, and it routes your swap through exchanges rated A for KYC, meaning providers that do not run identity checks. The ETH is paid directly to your wallet.
What is the ZEC to ETH exchange rate?
The rate moves with the market every few seconds and depends on the amount. The calculator at the top of this page requests live quotes from 20+ exchanges and shows the best current ZEC to ETH rate for the amount you enter.
What are the minimum and maximum for ZEC to ETH?
The minimum is about 0.0267 ZEC and the maximum about 8,330 ZEC. Limits vary slightly between exchanges and follow market prices; the form tells you immediately if your amount is outside the range.
How long does a ZEC to ETH swap take?
Usually 5 to 30 minutes. Most of that is waiting for your ZEC deposit to confirm on Zcash, which takes about 10-20 minutes. There is no verification step, so nothing else adds to the wait.
Is swapping ZEC to ETH anonymous?
AltoSwap does not know who you are (no account, no email, no identity checks) and the default route uses no-KYC exchanges. Your ZEC deposit is private by Zcash's design; the ETH payout is a normal public transaction on Ethereum.
Which ETH address should I use?
Your ETH is paid on Ethereum. Use an address that starts with 0x and is 42 characters long. Always use an address in a wallet you control and double-check the first and last characters before sending.
What fees are included in the ZEC to ETH rate?
Everything. The exchange's spread, the Ethereum network fee for the payout and any service commission are already inside the quoted rate, so the amount shown is what you receive: exactly on a fixed rate, approximately on a floating rate. You only pay your own Zcash network fee to send the deposit.
Can I swap ETH back to ZEC?
Yes. The reverse direction, ETH to ZEC, works the same way and has its own page and live rate on AltoSwap. Each direction is quoted independently, so the two rates are not exact mirrors of each other.
