How the CAT → ZEC exchange runs
- Work out the amount in the calculator — orders start at 45,367,282.56 CAT.
- Give a ZEC address on Zcash and a contact for the order.
- Send CAT on Simon's Cat, exactly the amount the order shows.
- Nothing else is needed from you: as soon as the network confirms the transfer, the robot sends Zcash to your address. The order page shows the status.
Check this before sending CAT
- The address network is Zcash. Sending through another network almost always means losing the transfer.
- The transfer must not be smaller than 45,367,282.56 CAT.
- Copy the address in full, then check its first and last characters once it is pasted.
- Send exactly the amount stated in the order: the automation matches your payment against it, and any difference sends the order back for recalculation.

Common questions: CAT → ZEC
What rate does CAT to ZEC run at?
As of Oct 1, 2026 04:25 it is 1 CAT = 0.000000001579 ZEC. The figure updates on its own, and the calculator always shows the current one. On the market that is around $0.00000227748.
What amounts does CAT → ZEC accept?
From 45,367,282.56 to 4,390,000,000,000 CAT per order. The floor is roughly $103.44.
Why can I not swap less than 45,367,282.56 CAT?
The network fee and the handling do not depend on the amount. On a transfer below 45,367,282.56 CAT they eat a noticeable share of it, and the swap stops making sense for either side.
Is anything charged on top of the rate?
No. The payout is already worked out at the rate in the calculator. Separately you pay only the network fee for sending CAT, and the blockchain takes that one.
How long does swapping CAT for ZEC take?
The clock starts with confirmations: as soon as Simon's Cat confirms your transfer, the order goes out for payout with no operator involved. After that the timing is set by how busy the network is — which is the difference between quick and instant.
Which network will ZEC arrive in?
Zcash arrives in its own Zcash network — a plain ZEC address is all you need.
What happens if the rate moves while I am paying?
Nothing: the rate is locked in the order and holds for as long as the order is alive. It is recalculated only if the payment arrives late or for a different amount — so send the exact sum, and send it promptly.
What did the CAT to ZEC rate do over the month?
Over the month, minus 26.86%: a low of 0.000000001363, a high of 0.000000002469, an average of 0.000000001721 ZEC per 1 CAT.
Can a CAT to ZEC swap be seen from the outside?
Public networks keep every transfer in the explorer, open to anyone. Privacy coins shut that down: Monero by default, Zcash and Dash when a shielded transfer is picked.
Can I swap back, ZEC for CAT?
Yes, the reverse is open too: 1 ZEC = 633,190,857.31 CAT. The link to switch sits under the calculator.
