BCH to DOT: questions and answers
How do I swap BCH to DOT without KYC?
Enter the BCH amount on this page, choose an offer, paste your DOT address and send your BCH to the deposit address shown. AltoSwap has no accounts and asks for no identity documents, and by default it only shows exchanges rated A for KYC, meaning providers that do not run identity checks. The DOT is paid directly to your wallet.
What is the BCH to DOT exchange rate?
At the last update, 1 BCH ≈ 270.655 DOT (the best of 3 offers for 1 BCH). Rates move with the market every few seconds, so use the calculator at the top of the page for the live rate on your exact amount.
What are the minimum and maximum for BCH to DOT?
The minimum is about 0.0147 BCH and the maximum about 4,580 BCH. Limits vary slightly between exchanges and follow market prices; the form tells you immediately if your amount is outside the range.
How long does a BCH to DOT swap take?
Usually around 31 min. Most of that is waiting for your BCH deposit to confirm on Bitcoin Cash, which takes about 10-20 minutes. There is no verification step, so nothing else adds to the wait.
Is swapping BCH to DOT anonymous?
AltoSwap does not know who you are (no account, no email, no identity checks) and the default route uses no-KYC exchanges. Both Bitcoin Cash and Polkadot are public ledgers, though, so the transactions themselves are visible on-chain. For on-chain privacy, swap into a privacy coin such as Monero.
Which DOT address should I use?
Your DOT is paid on Polkadot. Use an address that starts with 1. Always use an address in a wallet you control and double-check the first and last characters before sending.
What fees are included in the BCH to DOT rate?
Everything. The exchange's spread, the Polkadot network fee for the payout and any service commission are already inside the quoted rate, so the amount shown is what you receive: exactly on a fixed rate, approximately on a floating rate. You only pay your own Bitcoin Cash network fee to send the deposit.
Can I swap DOT back to BCH?
Yes. The reverse direction, DOT to BCH, works the same way and has its own page and live rate on AltoSwap. Each direction is quoted independently, so the two rates are not exact mirrors of each other.
