Common questions: LINK → ZEC

What rate does LINK to ZEC run at?
As of Nov 2, 2026 01:44 it is 1 LINK = 0.00930943 ZEC. The figure recalculates on its own, and the calculator always shows the fresh one. In dollars that is around $11.35.
What amounts does LINK → ZEC accept?
From 17.6627 to 876,000 LINK per order. The lower limit is roughly $201.53.
Where does the 17.6627 LINK floor come from?
Network fees and order handling eat a small transfer alive — below 17.6627 LINK 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 LINK, and that one goes to the blockchain, not to us.
How long does LINK to ZEC take?
The clock starts with confirmations: the order goes into work once Chainlink confirms your transfer. After that it comes down to how busy the network is.
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 LINK to ZEC rate do this month?
The month came in at minus 13.19%. Low 0.00867966, high 0.0108352, middle 0.0100993 ZEC per LINK.
Can a LINK 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 LINK?
Yes, the reverse direction is open: 1 ZEC = 108.2843 LINK. The link sits right under the calculator.
