CryptoChicken

Exchange Solana (SOL) to Zcash (ZEC)

Swap SOL for ZEC on CryptoChicken without registration. Solana runs on its own high-throughput Layer 1 chain, while Zcash operates on a separate proof-of-work blockchain with built-in shielded transaction support via zk-SNARKs. The exchange limits for this pair are 30 SOL minimum and 200 SOL maximum, with a current ZEC reserve of 72,001 coins available for instant payout.

Network speed and confirmations

Solana blocks finalize in roughly 400 milliseconds, so SOL deposits are typically credited within seconds after the required confirmations. Zcash uses Equihash proof-of-work with a 75-second average block time, meaning ZEC withdrawals reach the recipient address after several network blocks.

Fees and addresses

SOL network fees stay around 0.000005 SOL per transaction. ZEC payouts can be sent to transparent t-addresses; shielded z-address support depends on the destination wallet. Double-check the receiving address format before confirming the swap, since Solana and Zcash use completely different address structures.
