THORChain has activated a Zcash (ZEC) pool as a technical step toward enabling native cross-chain swaps without wrapped assets or bridges. While the pool is now active and THORChain nodes are monitoring the Zcash chain, trading has not yet started due to shallow liquidity and no set timeline. The recent protocol upgrade added necessary technical support for ZEC, but direct Bitcoin-to-ZEC swaps and transactions involving shielded addresses remain unconfirmed. The next step will be launching trading once conditions improve.
