DOT to FIL at a glance
Polkadot and Filecoin live on different blockchains, and this swap uses the native assets on both, with no bridge contract and no wrapped token. The exchange receives DOT on Polkadot and pays out FIL on Filecoin.
Your FIL is paid on Filecoin. Use an address that starts with f1. If your wallet or exchange gave you a memo, enter it as well; for a personal wallet it can usually be left empty.

DOT to FIL: questions and answers
How do I swap DOT to FIL without KYC?
Enter the DOT amount on this page, choose an offer, paste your FIL address and send your DOT 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 FIL is paid directly to your wallet.
What is the DOT to FIL exchange rate?
At the last update, 1 DOT ≈ 1.08691 FIL (the best of 1 offer for 200 DOT). 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 DOT to FIL?
The minimum is about 2.33 DOT and the maximum about 727,000 DOT. 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 DOT to FIL swap take?
Usually around 28 min. Most of that is waiting for your DOT deposit to confirm on Polkadot, which takes about 1-2 minutes. There is no verification step, so nothing else adds to the wait.
Is swapping DOT to FIL anonymous?
AltoSwap does not know who you are (no account, no email, no identity checks) and the default route uses no-KYC exchanges. Both Polkadot and Filecoin 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 FIL address should I use?
Your FIL is paid on Filecoin. Use an address that starts with f1. If your wallet or exchange gave you a memo, enter it as well; for a personal wallet it can usually be left empty. 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 DOT to FIL rate?
Everything. The exchange's spread, the Filecoin 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 Polkadot network fee to send the deposit.
Can I swap FIL back to DOT?
Yes. The reverse direction, FIL to DOT, 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.
