1. 01
   Get a HYPE to ZEC quote

   Enter how much Hyperliquid you want to convert. You see the live HYPE to ZEC rate, both fees and the exact Zcash you will receive before you commit.

2. 02
   Send your Hyperliquid

   You get a Hyperliquid (HYPE) deposit address and an exact amount. Send it from any Hyperliquid wallet — scanning the QR code fills in both where your wallet supports it.

   Receive Zcash (ZEC)

   Once the HYPE deposit confirms on-chain, Zcash is sent to the Zcash address you gave. Track it on the swap’s status page, no login needed.

What does the HYPE to ZEC rate mean?

It is how much Zcash (ZEC) you receive for each Hyperliquid (HYPE) you send, taken from live market prices at the moment you ask for a quote. The rate moves with the market, so you have 60 minutes to accept a quote and create the swap; the widget refreshes it automatically if you take longer. Funding the swap once it exists has its own separate deadline, shown on your swap page.

How do I convert HYPE to ZEC?

Enter the amount of HYPE in the widget, choose ZEC as what you receive, and give a Zcash address. You are shown a deposit address and an exact HYPE amount; send that amount and the ZEC is paid to your address once the deposit confirms. No account is needed at any step.

What are the fees to exchange HYPE for ZEC?

Two, both shown in the quote before you send: a swap fee of 0.5% of the amount, and a network-fee charge for the Zcash payout transaction. There is nothing added afterwards — the ZEC amount in the quote is the ZEC amount that arrives.

What is the minimum HYPE/ZEC exchange amount?

$100 worth, shown in the widget as an amount of HYPE at the current rate. There is no maximum imposed by the site beyond available Zcash liquidity, and no verification at any size.

Do I need an ID to swap HYPE to ZEC?

No. There is no KYC, no account and no email required. A swap is identified by its link, which shows its status without logging in. Creating an account is optional and only keeps your swap history in one place.

How long do HYPE to ZEC swaps take?

Hyperliquid deposits usually confirm in usually under a minute once a manual check is complete, after which the deposit is verified on-chain. Swap times vary by asset and by how quickly its network confirms. Your swap status page shows the current stage throughout the process.

Which Zcash address should I give?

Any address in a format Zcash accepts: transparent addresses start with t1 or t3; unified (shielded-capable) addresses start with u1. Give a unified (u1…) address to receive into the shielded pool, or a transparent (t1…) address if your wallet does not support shielded receiving.

What happens if my HYPE deposit is late or the swap expires?

There are two separate deadlines. The quote itself is held for 60 minutes — that is how long you have to accept the price and create the swap. Once the swap exists you get a separate funding window, shown on your swap page, to send the HYPE. If your deposit arrives after that window closes, the status page shows Expired and the swap moves to Review required; it is then completed at the current rate or refunded to your refund address. Nothing is lost by being late — a late deposit just needs review before it is processed.

Is exchanging HYPE for ZEC private?

Your HYPE deposit is visible on the Hyperliquid ledger like any HYPE transaction. Give a unified (u1…) address and the Zcash payout enters the shielded pool, where its amount and destination are encrypted on-chain. We store only what a swap needs — amounts, transaction ids and the address you gave.
