About Ethereum (ETH)
The smart-contract hub — and home of the token ecosystem most swaps start from.
- · Account-based ledger: balance and full history are public per address, and analytics tooling is the most mature of any chain.
- · Mainnet gas costs real money — if your swap is under a few hundred dollars, an L2 (Base, Arbitrum) or side network is usually the better rail.
- · ETH itself travels on the Ethereum network only — ERC-20 tokens (USDT, USDC…) are separate assets that must match the order's network exactly.
About Zcash (ZEC)
Optional privacy done with zero-knowledge proofs — shielded pools hide sender, receiver and amount.
- · Two address types: transparent (t-) works like Bitcoin; shielded (z-/unified u-) encrypts everything with zk-SNARKs. Privacy only holds if you stay inside the shielded pool.
- · Block time ~75 seconds; expect roughly 10-12 minutes for deposit confirmations on swaps.
- · Unified addresses (UA) let the wallet auto-pick the best receiver type — the practical default for new users.
