    How the swap works

    1. Enter the ZEC amount and paste your Bitcoin mainnet receive address.

    2. Open the order to see the live quote and the Zcash deposit address.

    3. Send ZEC on Zcash mainnet. After confirmations, BTC is paid to your wallet.

    Check these before you send

    • Zcash deposits follow mainnet block times β€” usually a few minutes before the swap continues.
    • Confirm whether the order expects transparent or shielded ZEC before you broadcast β€” the wrong type will fail.
    • BTC payouts go to the Bitcoin address you provide β€” Legacy, SegWit, and Taproot work when entered correctly.
    • Bitcoin payout speed follows mempool load after your ZEC deposit confirms.
    You send

    Zcash β€” shielded privacy is optional

    ZEC supports transparent and shielded addresses β€” use the receive format your wallet actually supports.

    Transparent vs shielded ZEC

    Sending to the wrong address type is a common failure mode.

    If unsure, ask support which format your order uses before broadcasting.

    You receive

    Bitcoin β€” the base layer of crypto

    Since 2009 Bitcoin has been the reference asset β€” deep liquidity, wide recognition, and the usual starting point for cross-chain routes.

    When can I spend the BTC payout?

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

    How to verify a 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 β€” including case and format.
    • Most wallets show incoming BTC after one confirmation; some exchanges wait for more.

    Frequently asked questions

    Does ZEC to BTC require KYC or an account?

    No. PeakSwap does not ask for a profile, ID documents, or a hosted balance for Zcash to Bitcoin.

    How long until BTC arrives?

    Many orders finish in a few minutes. Zcash mainnet deposit confirmations and Bitcoin mainnet payout time set the wait.

    Do you hold ZEC or BTC for me?

    No. You send ZEC from a wallet you control and BTC is paid to the address you provide β€” PeakSwap does not keep a user wallet.

    What if I send ZEC on the wrong chain?

    Use Zcash mainnet exactly as shown on the order. A wrong-network send may not be credited β€” read the swap safety notes first.
