Pour Monero, collect Zcash. The athanor engraves the formula the moment you start, so the amount shown is the amount delivered.
A plain coin-to-coin batch: deposit on Monero mainnet, delivery on Zcash mainnet, and the formula between them is held for the whole batch.
The lab fee of 0.5% and the network fee for delivering ZEC are both inside the quote; the only extra cost is what your own wallet charges to send XMR.
The process
Enter how much Monero you pour and the ZEC address the distillate goes to. The estimate updates before you commit.
Send exactly that dose from any wallet to the deposit address, on Monero mainnet. The furnace lights at the first confirmation (10 confirmations (about 20 min)).
The lab distills and delivers to your flask on Zcash mainnet. About 8 minutes end to end, confirmations included.
The pair
Formula and minimum refresh every few minutes from the live route. The binding formula is the one engraved when you start a batch.
About 8 minutes for the median batch. Most of it is waiting for 10 confirmations (about 20 min) on Monero; the delivery on Zcash is quick once distillation starts.
About 0.043 XMR (about $25) at today's prices. Below that, network fees would eat the distillate, so the batch pauses until you top up or ask for a return.
Yes. The expected ZEC output is engraved when you seal the batch and holds until the expiry shown on the deposit page. A deposit that arrives after expiry is handled at the live formula or returned, and you are told which.
No. There is no account, no email and no identity check. The batch number you receive is the only way to find the batch again, so keep it.
Any ZEC address you control on Zcash mainnet, including an exchange deposit address. Double-check it: the lab cannot recall a distillate once it is sent.
The deposit address listens on Monero mainnet only. Tokens sent on another chain are not seen by the athanor; some can be recovered by a technician for a handling fee, many cannot. When in doubt, send a small test dose first.
