What it costs
On this quote, $1,000 of ZEC became $999 of SOL: about $1.73, or 0.17%, for everything taken out on the way. That includes the 0.15% Shieldz fee, the protocol's own fees and the gas to deliver to you. The network fee your wallet pays to send is extra.
MetaMask's built-in swap charges 0.875% and Phantom's 0.85% before any of that. Compare on your own amount.
Shieldz sends ZEC from transparent addresses (t1… or t3…). To keep funds private afterwards, move them to a shielded address in your Zcash wallet.
