ETH to ZEC FAQ
Do I need to connect a Base wallet?
No. The exchange issues a deposit address on Base and you send ETH to it from Coinbase Wallet, MetaMask, Rabby, Ledger or an exchange withdrawal. Nothing is signed in the browser.
How long does ETH on Base to ZEC take?
Usually a few minutes from the moment your ETH deposit confirms. The quote shows an ETA for this exact route before you send anything.
Which Zcash address can receive the ZEC?
Any Zcash address, a transparent t1… address. Payouts go to transparent addresses and are public on-chain. You can shield the ZEC afterwards in your own wallet.
Do I get real ZEC?
Yes. The payout is an ordinary Zcash transaction to your address. It is not a wrapped token on another network and there is no claim step.
What happens if the swap fails after I send ETH?
The ETH is refunded on Base and the order page shows the refund status. A failed route does not leave funds stuck halfway.
