You can make a private swap between USDT and ZEC, in either direction, with L2Pass Swap by choosing the L2Pass Private route. In test quotes on October 10, 2026, it was offered from USDT on Tron and Ethereum to ZEC, with an estimated time of about 3 minutes, and from ZEC to USDT on Tron, with about 8.5 minutes. It executes the swap in a confidential environment that limits what is visible on public blockchains. It is not anonymity: your wallet address is still shared with providers, and compliance screening still applies. The L2Pass fee for a private swap is up to 0.3% (instead of 0% or 0.2%, not in addition). Like every fee, it is already included in the amount shown in the quote.

Routes for swaps between USDT and ZEC

L2Pass RFQ and L2Pass Private both run on NEAR Intents, where solvers and market makers compete to fill your swap. Private executes it in a confidential environment instead of a public one.

How to make a private ZEC swap

1

Open L2Pass Swap and choose the pair

Go to swap.l2pass.com. Choose USDT (on the network you hold it on) and ZEC (on Zcash) as source and destination, in either order, then enter the amount and the receiving address.
2

Select L2Pass Private

Select L2Pass Private and check its expected output, minimum received, estimated time and fees. If you do not need confidential execution, L2Pass RFQ carries an L2Pass fee of up to 0.2% instead.
3

Set a refund address

Set the refund address to a wallet you control on the chain you pay from (Zcash, or your USDT network). If the swap cannot complete, your deposit is returned there.
4

Pay to the deposit address

Send the amount shown in the quote to the one-time deposit address from any wallet or exchange, using the address or QR code. If you pay in USDT, you can also send it from your connected wallet. If you send from an exchange, check that the amount that arrives matches the quote, since some exchanges deduct their withdrawal fee from it.

Track the swap in Recent swaps

Follow the status in Recent swaps: Awaiting deposit, Deposit confirmed, then Complete.

Things to know

  • Network fees. You pay gas only where you send from: ZEC on Zcash, or your USDT network’s native token, such as TRX on Tron. Any network fee on the destination chain is deducted from the amount shown.
  • Refunds. If a swap cannot complete, your deposit is returned to the refund address; provider and network fees may be deducted.
  • No partial fills. A swap completes in full or does not execute.
  • Privacy and compliance. A private swap is not anonymity: your public wallet address is still included in requests sent to providers, and the same screening and sanctions controls apply. If a provider flags a swap as high risk, it decides whether to complete, refund or hold it, and a refund is not guaranteed.
