Take Zcash to a stablecoin without an exchange account: send ZEC, receive USDT on Tron (TRC-20) at the address you give, with no Wagyu fee on this route. On the example quote, 1 ZEC worth $1,493 returned 1,490 USDT about 12 minutes after the deposit.
USDT on Tron is the default because it is the cheapest network to receive on and the most widely accepted. The token picker in the widget offers other USDT networks if you need one.
Where you send your ZEC from
The order gives you a Zcash deposit address. Pay it from any Zcash wallet, shielded or transparent. If a refund is ever needed, the order moves to a refund state and asks you for a Zcash refund address then.
How the ZEC to USDT swap works
- Enter the amount and your Tron address. It starts with T. The quote shows the USDT you can expect and the minimum, which is about $20.
- Send ZEC to the deposit address. Compliance screening runs before the swap. A deposit that fails screening is refunded: the order moves to a refund state and asks you for a refund address. Nothing is held.
- Wagyu executes.
- Receive USDT on Tron. About 12 minutes end to end on the live estimate.
Fees, minimum and time for this route
- Fee: 0% Wagyu fee on this route, because USDT is not a privacy coin. The rate includes the spread, which is why $1,493 of ZEC returned 1,490 USDT on the example.
- Minimum: about $20 of ZEC.
- Time: about 12 minutes end to end.
Times are approximate for the default network, from deposit detection to swap completion. Confirmations, order size and your selected network can change the timing.
Why swap ZEC to USDT on Wagyu
After a fast rise, people want to lock in part of the move without selling on an exchange that keeps their name, their balance and the right to review the withdrawal. A stablecoin on Tron moves for cents and is accepted almost everywhere, and this route carries no Wagyu fee. The opposite direction is on the USDT to Zcash page, with the payout going to your shielded address.
