Common questions: YFI → ZEC
What rate does YFI to ZEC run at?
As of Oct 1, 2026 00:00 it is 1 YFI = 1.7187 ZEC. The figure updates on its own, and the calculator always shows the current one. On the market that is around $2,433.57.
What amounts does YFI → ZEC accept?
From 0.0417853 to 4,110 YFI per order. The floor is roughly $101.79.
Why can I not swap less than 0.0417853 YFI?
The network fee and the handling do not depend on the amount. On a transfer below 0.0417853 YFI 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 YFI, and the blockchain takes that one.
How long does swapping YFI for ZEC take?
The clock starts with confirmations: as soon as yearn.finance 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 YFI to ZEC rate do over the month?
Over the month, minus 33.17%: a low of 1.4283, a high of 2.6988, an average of 1.8779 ZEC per 1 YFI.
Can a YFI 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 YFI?
Yes, the reverse is open too: 1 ZEC = 0.581809 YFI. The link to switch sits under the calculator.
