    Exchange in 3 steps

    1. Choose how much ZEC to send and enter your Bitcoin mainnet receive address.

    2. Hit Exchange to open your order page with the live rate and Zcash deposit details.

    3. Send ZEC on Zcash mainnet — after confirmations, BTC is sent to your wallet automatically.

    What do you need to know?

    • Zcash deposits follow mainnet block times — usually a few minutes before the swap proceeds.
    • Confirm whether your order expects transparent or shielded ZEC before you broadcast — wrong address types fail.
    • BTC payouts go to the Bitcoin address you provide — Legacy, SegWit, and Taproot formats are supported when entered correctly.
    • Bitcoin payout speed depends on mempool congestion after your ZEC deposit confirms.

    You receive

    Bitcoin — the original digital asset

    Since 2009, Bitcoin has been the benchmark cryptocurrency — deep liquidity, wide recognition, and the default on-ramp for cross-chain swaps.

    When is my BTC spendable?

    After your payout transaction receives the confirmations shown on the order page — typically one or more blocks depending on route.

    Checking your BTC payout

    • Open the order page and copy the payout transaction hash into a Bitcoin block explorer.
    • Confirm the destination address matches your wallet exactly — including case and format.
    • Most wallets show incoming BTC after one confirmation; some exchanges wait for more.
