Crypto exchange OKX has made a major announcement for Zcash (ZEC). The platform revealed it will relist ZEC, which it had previously delisted on January 15, 2024. Back in early January 2024, OKX removed three major privacy-focused cryptocurrencies – Monero (XMR), Zcash (ZEC), and Dash (DASH) – from its platform.
Zcash Spot Trading Returns on OKX
According to OKX’s official statement, Zcash is preparing for relisting, with spot trading opening on November 24, 2025, at 20:00 UTC+8 (3:00 PM Turkey time).
To minimize price volatility during the relisting, OKX will apply an index-based limit price mechanism, which can be adjusted based on market conditions.
Why Did OKX Delist Zcash?
OKX previously removed Monero, Dash, and Zcash due to their privacy-focused nature. These tokens carry higher regulatory risks and did not fully meet OKX’s listing criteria. Privacy coins can pose compliance challenges regarding anti-money laundering (AML) and KYC regulations. As a result, OKX prioritized investor security and regulatory compliance when it temporarily suspended ZEC trading.
What is Zcash (ZEC)?
Zcash is a cryptocurrency that allows users to execute transactions in either a private or transparent mode. Its privacy-focused structure enables users to conceal the sender, recipient, and transaction amount, while still supporting standard transparent transactions. This feature makes Zcash especially attractive for investors seeking anonymity and privacy.
