How to exchange TON for ZEC safely and at a good rate
To switch from Toncoin to Zcash you don’t need to sell for dollars first and then buy again. ROVEN exchange does it in one step: one order, one rate, one payout.
Toncoin (TON) is the coin of the TON blockchain, closely tied to Telegram and its built-in wallet. Zcash (ZEC) is a cryptocurrency with optional privacy based on zero-knowledge proofs.
Why swap TON for ZEC
Coins serve different purposes, and sometimes holding ZEC makes more sense — for faster transfers, staking or the Zcash ecosystem. Zcash supports private transfers, but swaps use transparent addresses.
Networks and addresses
| You send TON | You receive ZEC | |
|---|---|---|
| Network | TON | Zcash |
| Address | “UQ…” or “EQ…” | “t1…” or “t3…” |
| Network speed | a transfer confirms in a few seconds | a block comes roughly every 75 seconds |
| Memo / tag | Required, from the order | Not needed |
What to watch out for
- When sending TON, paste the comment (memo) from the order — without it the payment won’t be matched automatically.
- You need a transparent “t1…” or “t3…” address; “zs…” and “u1…” addresses won’t work.
- When sending TON, include the memo from the order, or the payment will have to be traced manually.
- Send the exact amount from the order and do it within 30 minutes, while the locked rate is valid.
How long the swap takes
Swap speed depends on both networks. On TON, a transfer confirms in a few seconds; on Zcash, a block comes roughly every 75 seconds. The whole TON to ZEC swap usually takes 5 to 30 minutes once your transfer is confirmed.
The current rate is 1 ZEC = 760.85119 TON and the minimum amount is 6.666667 TON. Create an order in the form above, and ROVEN exchange will send swap updates by email or Telegram.
