ZEC arbitrage explained

Right now Zcash (ZEC) trades on 11 venues we scan: 11 perpetual markets, 6 spot markets and 0 DEX pools. The lowest ask is on Variational perp at $1,303.97 and the highest bid on KuCoin spot at $1,308.16.

The widest ZEC perpetual spread is between Variational and HTX: long ZEC on Variational at $1,303.97 and short on HTX at $1,307.81 for +0.29% gross, or +0.13% after the 0.16% two-leg fee model. No transfer is needed: both positions stay on their exchanges until the prices converge. The funding difference on this pair is +0.000% per day, which the position collects while it is open.

For a spot–perpetual (cash-and-carry) trade, the best ZEC route is to buy spot on OKX and short the perpetual on HTX: +0.05% gross, -0.15% net, with +0.030% a day of funding on the short leg.

Spot–spot ZEC arbitrage (buy on OKX, withdraw, deposit and sell on KuCoin) shows +0.08% gross right now. It only works if withdrawals on the buying exchange and deposits on the selling exchange are open, so check the D/W dots before moving coins.

Small ZEC gaps usually disappear after fees, slippage and funding. Look at the Net column, the executable Depth and the spread history before trading: a gap that has been open for days is a different trade from a one-minute spike.
