DCR to DOT: questions and answers
How do I swap DCR to DOT without KYC?
Enter the DCR amount on this page, choose an offer, paste your DOT address and send your DCR 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 DCR to DOT exchange rate?
At the last update, 1 DCR ≈ 13.5822 DOT (the best of 1 offer for 25 DCR). 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 DCR to DOT?
The minimum is about 0.429 DCR and the maximum about 134,000 DCR. 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 DCR to DOT swap take?
Usually around 28 min. Most of that is waiting for your DCR deposit to confirm on Decred, which takes about 5-15 minutes. There is no verification step, so nothing else adds to the wait.
Is swapping DCR 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 Decred 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 DCR 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 Decred network fee to send the deposit.
Can I swap DOT back to DCR?
Yes. The reverse direction, DOT to DCR, 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.
