**Houdiniswap <> Zcash Integration proposal
**
We’re planning to integrate the Zcash Network, including ZEC token as a core asset on the Zcash chain.

Stage One: Integration of the ZCash chain and ZEC token for private cross-chain swaps and swaps without wallet connection, leveraging centralized liquidity.

Stage Two: Integration of the ZCash chain and ZEC token using decentralized liquidity sources, such as Near Intents or the Mayan Protocol.

Stage One

1. Chain integration

Costs: $10,000
ETA: 4-6 weeks

2. Asset integration

2.1 Integration of the $ZEC token on Zcash chain into HoudiniSwap for standard cross-chain swaps without requiring a wallet connection and private swaps, using centralized liquidity routes. (See image below for reference.)

This integration involves connecting third-party DeFi solutions that operate natively on the Zcash Chain and support ZEC token through their APIs.

Costs: 15,000
ETA: end of November 2025

Optionally, we can integrate a single option based on the community’s needs.
