Who takes the ZEC → ETH BASE route

  • Fuel for BASEWithout Ethereum nothing moves in BASE — every transfer and every contract call is paid in it.
  • Different basketsHolding part of the amount in Ethereum loosens a portfolio's dependence on a single coin.
  • A road both waysThe ETH BASE → ZEC direction is open too, so going back into ZEC takes the same route.

Swap ZEC for ETH BASE

Check this before sending ZEC

  • 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: ZEC → ETH BASE

What rate does ZEC to ETH BASE run at?
As of Sep 16, 2026 22:08 it is 1 ZEC = 0.564444 ETH BASE. The figure recalculates on its own, and the calculator always shows the fresh one. In dollars that is around $1,358.39.
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 ZEC, and that one goes to the blockchain, not to us.
How long does ZEC to ETH BASE take?
The clock starts with confirmations: the order goes into work once Zcash confirms your transfer. After that it comes down to how busy the network is. A block in Zcash closes in about 1.3 min.
Which network will ETH BASE arrive in?
The payout leaves in BASE. Make sure the receiving wallet works with that network.
Where is receiving ETH cheaper?
The cheapest is usually ETH BEP20, ETH Arbitrum, ETH Optimism. Still, the network is chosen by what the recipient supports, not by the fee.
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.
Can a ZEC to ETH BASE 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, ETH BASE to ZEC?
Yes, the reverse direction is open: 1 ETH BASE = 1.7859 ZEC. The link sits right under the calculator.
