Who takes the ZEC → XMR route

  • Privacy at protocol levelIn Monero the sender, the receiver and the amount are hidden by the protocol itself — a public explorer shows none of them.
  • Fast paymentsA block in Monero closes in about 2 min, which is why Monero is used for moving money rather than holding it.
  • Different basketsDaily moves of ZEC and XMR over 90 days line up at 0.31 (they travel apart) — the looser the link, the less a portfolio depends on one coin.

  1. Work out the amount in the calculator: orders start at 0.242041 ZEC.
  2. Enter a XMR address in Monero and a way to reach you.

  4. Once the network confirms your transfer, Monero leaves for your address. The order page tracks every step.

Swap ZEC for XMR

Check this before sending ZEC

  • The address network is Monero. Sending through another network usually means losing the transfer.
  • The transfer must not be smaller than 0.242041 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 → XMR

What rate does ZEC to XMR run at?
As of Nov 2, 2026 07:29 it is 1 ZEC = 2.1394 XMR. The figure recalculates on its own, and the calculator always shows the fresh one. In dollars that is around $1,285.91.
What amounts does ZEC → XMR accept?
From 0.242041 to 7,850 ZEC per order. The lower limit is roughly $308.22.
Where does the 0.242041 ZEC floor come from?
Network fees and order handling eat a small transfer alive — below 0.242041 ZEC 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 ZEC, and that one goes to the blockchain, not to us.
How long does ZEC to XMR 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 XMR arrive in?
Monero leaves in its own Monero network — a plain XMR 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 ZEC to XMR rate do this month?
The month came in at minus 16.02%. Low 1.8875, high 2.4726, middle 2.1815 XMR per ZEC.
Can a ZEC to XMR 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, XMR to ZEC?
Yes, the reverse direction is open: 1 XMR = 0.47259 ZEC. The link sits right under the calculator.
