Introduction

What Zswap is, and how it swaps between Zcash and Solana without linking sender and receiver.

Zswap swaps tokens between Zcash and Solana without a wallet connection or an account. You pick a pair, paste the address that should receive the funds, and send your deposit to a one-time address. That's the whole interaction.

By default every swap takes the private route: two unrelated exchanges with an intermediary asset in between, so your deposit and the payout aren't linked on-chain. Pick the same token on both sides (for example SOL → SOL) to send it privately to another wallet.

Private swaps and sends are the first layer. Monero mode, shielded ZEC, private payment links and more chains are next on the roadmap.

A private swap: two unrelated exchanges, and the trail ends in the middle.
