Zcash (ZEC) arbitrage strategy
No ZEC route worth taking with an open transfer right now. Gaps of a minute or longer open several times a week, though — here is how to catch the next one:
- Watch Poloniex → Bitrue ZEC/USDC: the spread opened there 537 times in 7 days, 260 of them for a minute or longer; it usually lasts 54 s.
- The transfer is closed now: Poloniex and Bitrue share no open network. Until it reopens, the route only works with coins already on Bitrue.
- Set an alert on the route: you hear when the spread pays after fees. Then buy on Poloniex and sell on Bitrue.

6 routes are open now; the best nets 0.6% after trading and withdrawal fees between Bitfinex and Binance.US.

6 routes in profit after fees are worth a look ("take" or "risky"); the engine's commonest warnings: transfer closed; under $20 at the best price. We have no network status from Kraken, Hyperliquid and BingX +2, so a transfer there cannot be checked.

1.00% between the cheapest (Bitfinex) and the dearest (KuCoin) exchange, before fees. No route worth taking with an open transfer right now.
