About this swap
- Sending ZEC Swap providers only accept transparent Zcash addresses, starting with t1 or t3. To make your ZEC private, shield it in your own wallet after the swap. You send it from your own wallet to a deposit address the provider creates for this one exchange.
- Receiving BTC Bitcoin addresses start with 1, 3 or bc1.
- Who holds your funds WalletExchange never does. The provider you choose holds your deposit only while it completes the exchange, then sends the BTC straight to your address.
Before you swap
- Match the network Your receiving address must be a BTC address. An address from another network can mean lost funds.
- Add a refund address If the exchange can’t complete, the provider refunds your ZEC to it.
- Check the minimum Recent minimums started from 0.0146756 ZEC, and each provider sets its own. The tool shows the current minimum for every provider.
Questions

- Which providers can swap ZEC to BTC? ChangeNOW, SimpleSwap, StealthEX and NEAR Intents. WalletExchange compares them all and ranks them by what you receive, not by what they pay us.
- Can I swap ZEC to BTC without KYC? None of these providers needs an account. All of them screen swaps and can hold, refuse or ask for verification on one that is flagged, and some require ID in certain countries or above set amounts, so no provider is truly "no-KYC". Our KYC and privacy ratings, from A (least) to D: ChangeNOW B (ID mandatory in some countries); SimpleSwap B (Refunds can depend on ID checks); StealthEX C (ID required above set amounts; Refunds can depend on ID checks); NEAR Intents B (Flagged funds can be frozen). How we rate
- Do I need an account? No. Neither WalletExchange nor the providers require an account for a standard swap, though a provider can ask for verification if its risk checks flag a transaction. What is conditional KYC?
