Exchange in 3 steps
-
Set the TON amount and paste your Zcash payout address on Zcash mainnet.
-
Create the order to lock the quote and see the deposit address.
-
Send TON to that deposit. After confirmations, ZEC is paid to your wallet.
Before you broadcast
- TON confirmations are typically very fast — often under a minute.
- Use a TON mainnet wallet address (UQ… or EQ… format). Do not send jettons unless your order specifies a token.
- Send native TON on The Open Network only — not wrapped TON on other chains.
- ZEC not visible yet? Wait a few minutes, resync your wallet, then contact support with your order ID if the payout tx is already listed.
Toncoin — Telegram-native layer-1
TON powers The Open Network — fast transfers, low fees, and deep integration with Telegram wallets and mini-apps.
Sending TON on mainnet
Send native TON from a TON-compatible wallet. Jetton deposits require the exact asset your order lists.
Leave enough TON in your wallet to cover network fees on top of the swap amount.
Zcash — optional shielded privacy
ZEC supports transparent and shielded addresses — pick the receive format your wallet actually supports.
ZEC receipt troubleshooting
Confirm address type matches your wallet. Rescan the blockchain in your Zcash client if needed.
Transparent vs shielded payouts
Zcash supports both transparent (t-) and shielded (z-) addresses — they are not interchangeable.
- Use the address type your wallet actually supports before placing the order.
- Shielded payouts may take longer to appear depending on wallet software.
- If the order shows a sent tx but balance is zero, rescan the chain in your Zcash client first.

Frequently asked questions
Is identity verification required to trade TON for ZEC?
No. HideSwap operates as an anonymous no-KYC crypto exchange — no profile, no ID upload, and no funded account for Toncoin → Zcash.
How long is a TON → ZEC order?
Typical completion is a few minutes. TON mainnet and Zcash mainnet confirmation times set the pace.
Do you custody TON or ZEC?
No. You send TON yourself and ZEC is paid to the address you enter — HideSwap does not keep a wallet balance for you.
What if I pick the wrong TON network?
Match the network printed on the order (TON mainnet). A mismatch can strand the deposit — check the swap safety notes first.
