SOL to ZEC at a glance
Zcash is a privacy coin, which makes SOL to ZEC one of the most common privacy swaps. The exchange receives a public SOL transaction and pays you ZEC; from then on, what you do with that ZEC is shielded by Zcash's own protocol rather than by any promise from an intermediary.
Your ZEC is paid on Zcash. Use an address that is a transparent t-address (unified addresses are not supported).

SOL to ZEC: questions and answers
How do I swap SOL to ZEC without KYC?
Enter the SOL amount on this page, choose an offer, paste your ZEC address and send your SOL to the deposit address shown. AltoSwap has no accounts and asks for no identity documents, and by default it only shows exchanges rated A for KYC, meaning providers that do not run identity checks. The ZEC is paid directly to your wallet.
What is the SOL to ZEC exchange rate?
At the last update, 1 SOL ≈ 0.0814144 ZEC (the best of 20 offers for 2.5 SOL). Rates move with the market every few seconds, so use the calculator at the top of the page for the live rate on your exact amount.
What are the minimum and maximum for SOL to ZEC?
The minimum is about 0.0378 SOL and the maximum about 11,800 SOL. Limits vary slightly between exchanges and follow market prices; the form tells you immediately if your amount is outside the range.
How long does a SOL to ZEC swap take?
Usually around 7 min. Most of that is waiting for your SOL deposit to confirm on Solana, which takes usually under a minute. There is no verification step, so nothing else adds to the wait.
Is swapping SOL to ZEC anonymous?
AltoSwap does not know who you are (no account, no email, no identity checks) and the default route uses no-KYC exchanges. Your SOL deposit is a public transaction on Solana, but once you hold ZEC its transactions hide sender, receiver and amount by design.
Which ZEC address should I use?
Your ZEC is paid on Zcash. Use an address that is a transparent t-address (unified addresses are not supported). Always use an address in a wallet you control and double-check the first and last characters before sending.
What fees are included in the SOL to ZEC rate?
Everything. The exchange's spread, the Zcash network fee for the payout and any service commission are already inside the quoted rate, so the amount shown is what you receive: exactly on a fixed rate, approximately on a floating rate. You only pay your own Solana network fee to send the deposit.
Can I swap ZEC back to SOL?
Yes. The reverse direction, ZEC to SOL, works the same way and has its own page and live rate on AltoSwap. Each direction is quoted independently, so the two rates are not exact mirrors of each other.
