Total spot volume for ZEC on centralized exchanges

Zcash: ZEC Spot Volume by CEX

This metric tracks the total amount of ZEC that has been bridged to other blockchain networks and exists as wrapped tokens, representing ZEC liquidity available in other ecosystems for DeFi applications, trading, and cross-chain transfers. Each blockchain uses different bridging mechanisms and token standards to represent ZEC on their networks.

**NEAR Protocol**: Tracks the circulating supply of wrapped ZEC (NEP-141 token: `zec.omft.near`) through mint and burn events on NEAR's intent-based bridge system. When users bridge ZEC to NEAR, new tokens are minted; when they bridge back, tokens are burned.

**BNB Chain**: Monitors the total supply of ZEC BEP-20 tokens (contract: `0x1ba42e5193dfa8b03d15dd1b86a3113bbbef8eeb`) through periodic snapshots of the contract's `totalSupply()` function, representing ZEC bridged to Binance's ecosystem.

**Ethereum**: Calculates the circulating supply of WZEC (contract: `0x4a64515e5e1d1073e83f30cb97bed20400b66e10`) by tracking mint and burn events, showing how much ZEC has been wrapped for use in Ethereum's DeFi protocols and applications.

**Solana**: Aggregates supply across two distinct wrapped ZEC implementations—the standard ZEC token and zenZEC—both tracked through Solana's foreign L1 tokens system. These represent different bridge providers offering ZEC access on Solana.

The metric is displayed in both ZEC (showing the absolute amount of native ZEC locked in bridges) and USD (representing the total market value of wrapped ZEC across all chains).

Zcash: Wrapped Supply on Other Chains

This metric tracks daily volume of wrapped ZEC activity across four blockchain networks.

**NEAR Protocol**: Captures movements of the wrapped ZEC token (`zec.omft.near`) through NEAR's intent-based transfer system, including peer-to-peer transfers and other on-chain activity.

**BNB Chain**: Tracks decentralized exchange trading volume for ZEC BEP-20 tokens (contract: `0x1ba42e5193dfa8b03d15dd1b86a3113bbbef8eeb`) across major DEXs on Binance Smart Chain.

**Ethereum**: Measures DEX trading volume for WZEC (contract: `0x4a64515e5e1d1073e83f30cb97bed20400b66e10`) across Ethereum's decentralized exchanges.

**Solana**: Aggregates spot trading volume from DEXs for both wrapped ZEC implementations—the standard ZEC token and zenZEC—representing trading activity on Solana's exchanges.

Zcash: ZEC DEX Volume Multichain

This chart compares aggregated ZEC trading volume between centralized exchanges (CEX) and decentralized exchanges (DEX), revealing where traders are most actively exchanging ZEC and how liquidity is distributed across different types of trading venues.

**CEX Volume** aggregates spot trading data from major centralized exchanges including Binance, Coinbase, Kraken, and others, sourced from Amberdata's historical spot market data. This represents traditional exchange trading where users deposit funds with the exchange.

**DEX Volume** combines wrapped ZEC trading activity across four blockchain networks:

**NEAR Protocol**: Transfer volume of wrapped ZEC (`zec.omft.near`) through NEAR's intent-based system.

**BNB Chain**: DEX trading volume for ZEC BEP-20 tokens (contract: `0x1ba42e5193dfa8b03d15dd1b86a3113bbbef8eeb`) across Binance Smart Chain's decentralized exchanges.

**Ethereum**: DEX trading volume for WZEC (contract: `0x4a64515e5e1d1073e83f30cb97bed20400b66e10`) across Ethereum's decentralized exchanges.

**Solana**: Spot volume for both ZEC and zenZEC wrapped tokens on Solana's DEXs.

All values are denominated in USD.
