ZEC to USDTZEC to USDT: swap Zcash to Tether without KYC
Take Zcash to a stablecoin without an exchange account: send ZEC, receive USDT on Tron (TRC-20) at the address you give, with a 0% Wagyu fee.
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.
Example rate: 1 ZEC ≈ 1,490.2 USDT

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
1. 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.
2. 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.
3. Wagyu executes
4. Receive USDT on Tron
About 12 minutes end to end on the default network (typical estimate).
Fees, minimum and time for this route
- Wagyu fee: 0% for this route. The quote also shows applicable routing, trading and rounding costs. Your deposit transaction network fee is paid separately. The final output can change with the market during execution.
- Minimum: about $20 on the default network. Another network or amount can change the quote.
- Time: about 12 minutes from deposit detection to completion on the default network. Confirmations and large orders executed in slices can take longer. This is the typical estimate.
Times are approximate for the default network, from deposit detection to swap completion. Confirmations, order size and your selected network can change the timing.
Before you send
- Paste a Tron address for USDT on Tron: it starts with T. If you pick another USDT network in the token picker, the address must match it.
- Send from any Zcash wallet, shielded or transparent, once the ZEC you send is confirmed in it.
- Send the exact amount shown in the order, in one transaction, and save the order link and its private session key.
- Check the address bar. The only official domain is wagyu.xyz.
Which Tron address to use
Any Tron address you control works, or an exchange deposit address for USDT on Tron. Receiving costs you nothing, but moving the USDT later needs a little TRX, because Tron charges its network fee in TRX. Use a fresh address from your own wallet: an address an exchange knows is yours links the USDT to your name.
Two ways to sell ZEC without an account
| Way | How fast | What it costs | What you need |
|---|---|---|---|
| Instant swap (this page) | about 12 minutes to USDT | 0% Wagyu fee out of ZEC, route cost in the rate | a Tron address |
| Peer-to-peer market | depends on the buyer | set by you and the buyer | a buyer and an escrow |
Large exchanges are not on this list: they ask for ID before you can deposit or sell.
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 0% Wagyu fee. The opposite direction is on the USDT to Zcash page, with the payout going to your shielded address.

Can I pay the deposit from a shielded wallet?

Is the rate fixed or floating?
Floating. The quote is an estimate and the deposit amount is exact. The USDT you receive follows the market during execution.
What if I send the wrong amount?
Send the exact amount shown in the order. If the deposit differs or a route is unavailable, the order moves to a refund state and asks you for a refund address.
