Who takes the XLM → ZEC route

  • Shielded transfersZcash has a mode in which transfer details never reach the public ledger.
  • Different basketsDaily moves of XLM and ZEC over 90 days line up at 0.3 (they travel apart) — the looser the link, the less a portfolio depends on one coin.
  • A road both waysThe ZEC → XLM direction is open too, so going back into XLM takes the same route.

Swap XLM for ZEC

Check this before sending XLM

  • The address network is Zcash. Sending through another network usually means losing the transfer.
  • The transfer must not be smaller than 1,043.46 XLM.
  • 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: XLM → ZEC

What rate does XLM to ZEC run at?
As of Nov 1, 2026 12:29 it is 1 XLM = 0.000136277 ZEC. The figure recalculates on its own, and the calculator always shows the fresh one. In dollars that is around $0.170613.
What amounts does XLM → ZEC accept?
From 1,043.46 to 59,000,000 XLM per order. The lower limit is roughly $176.81.
Where does the 1,043.46 XLM floor come from?
Network fees and order handling eat a small transfer alive — below 1,043.46 XLM 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 XLM, and that one goes to the blockchain, not to us.
How long does XLM to ZEC take?
The clock starts with confirmations: the order goes into work once Stellar confirms your transfer. After that it comes down to how busy the network is. A block in Stellar closes in about 5 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 XLM to ZEC rate do this month?
The month came in at minus 13.69%. Low 0.000130309, high 0.000165669, middle 0.000151881 ZEC per XLM.
Can a XLM 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 XLM?
Yes, the reverse direction is open: 1 ZEC = 7,397.18 XLM. The link sits right under the calculator.
