The figure is indicative; the exact amount is locked in the order.

The direction runs at 0.00106921 ZEC per ATOM, or 935.2666 ATOM per ZEC. Market over 24 hours: ATOM against ZEC minus 6.59%. The week added minus 33.54%.

The weekly corridor ran from 0.00105736 to 0.00168633 ZEC, a spread of 59.48%. A single order takes 127.9918 to 6,450,000 ATOM. In dollars that is roughly $198.39.

By market cap Cosmos sits 81th ($825.23 M) and Zcash 9th ($24.85 B). Daily moves of ATOM and ZEC over 90 days line up at 0.22 (they travel apart).

Who takes the ATOM → ZEC route

  • Shielded transfersZcash has a mode in which transfer details never reach the public ledger.
  • Different basketsDaily moves of ATOM and ZEC over 90 days line up at 0.22 (they travel apart) — the looser the link, the less a portfolio depends on one coin.
  • A road both waysThe ZEC → ATOM direction is open too, so going back into ATOM takes the same route.

How the ATOM → ZEC order runs

  1. Work out the amount in the calculator: orders start at 127.9918 ATOM.
  2. Enter a ZEC address in Zcash and a way to reach you.
  3. Send ATOM in Cosmos Hub for exactly the amount stated in the order.
  4. Once the network confirms your transfer, Zcash leaves for your address. The order page tracks every step.

Swap ATOM for ZEC

Check this before sending ATOM

  • The address network is Zcash. Sending through another network usually means losing the transfer.
  • The transfer must not be smaller than 127.9918 ATOM.
  • Copy the address whole, then compare the first and last characters after pasting.
  • Coins go through an AML check: a flagged transfer can be held until the check is finished.

Common questions: ATOM → ZEC

What rate does ATOM to ZEC run at?
As of Sep 18, 2026 01:13 it is 1 ATOM = 0.00106921 ZEC. The figure recalculates on its own, and the calculator always shows the fresh one. In dollars that is around $1.57.
What amounts does ATOM → ZEC accept?
From 127.9918 to 6,450,000 ATOM per order. The lower limit is roughly $198.39.
Where does the 127.9918 ATOM floor come from?
Network fees and order handling eat a small transfer alive — below 127.9918 ATOM the swap stops making sense for either side.
What else is taken on top of the rate?
The payout is already calculated at the rate in the calculator. On top of it you only pay the network fee for sending ATOM, and that one goes to the blockchain, not to us.
How long does ATOM to ZEC take?
The clock starts with confirmations: the order goes into work once Cosmos Hub confirms your transfer. After that it comes down to how busy the network is. A block in Cosmos Hub closes in about 6 sec.
Which network will ZEC arrive in?
Zcash leaves in its own Zcash network — a plain ZEC address is all you need.
What if the rate moves while I am paying?
The rate is pinned to the order and does not move while the order is alive. It can be recalculated if the payment arrives late or for a different amount — so send the exact sum, and send it promptly.
What did the ATOM to ZEC rate do this month?
The month came in at minus 59.49%. Low 0.00111473, high 0.00277818, middle 0.00178382 ZEC per ATOM.
Can a ATOM to ZEC swap be traced?
Transfers in public networks sit in the explorer for anyone to read. Privacy coins close that off: Monero always, Zcash and Dash when a shielded transfer is chosen.
Can I go back, ZEC to ATOM?
Yes, the reverse direction is open: 1 ZEC = 945.6304 ATOM. The link sits right under the calculator.
