Why people swap ZEC to LINK.
Adopting Zcash’s privacy tech. SwapHub allows users to convert Zcash, the original zk-SNARK cryptocurrency, into Chainlink, the backbone of DeFi. By leveraging Zcash’s optional privacy features, users gain regulatory flexibility while benefiting from Chainlink’s transparent infrastructure.
Staking and liquidity. ZEC holders can stake their coins for a competitive APY, while LINK stakers earn up to 15%+ early. This swap enables ZEC owners to participate in DeFi’s growing staking markets, accessing higher yields without losing privacy.
Interoperability with Zcash rollups. Zcash’s zk-SNARK technology is now used by Ethereum rollups like zkSync and Scroll. By swapping ZEC to LINK, users can integrate seamlessly into these rollups, benefiting from both the privacy of Zcash and the scalability of rollups.
Supporting DeFi infrastructure. Chainlink powers over $75 billion in DeFi TVL, providing critical oracle services and cross-chain communication. Swapping ZEC to LINK ensures users can participate in DeFi’s growth while retaining the privacy benefits of Zcash.

05 Float rate vs Fixed rate — which should I pick?
Float gives you the best available rate at the moment your deposit arrives (usually a slightly better number, subject to movement). Fixed locks the rate when you create the order, costing about 0.4% extra — worth it for large amounts or when the market is moving fast.
06 Is there a fee on top of the exchange rate?

07 What happens if I send the wrong amount?
If you send less than the minimum, the order pauses and you can add a top-up. If you send more than the estimate, you'll automatically receive the extra LINK at the locked rate. Sending a different coin to the ZEC address is recoverable but requires contacting support.
