DOT to OP: questions and answers
How do I swap DOT to OP without KYC?
Enter the DOT amount on this page, choose an offer, paste your OP 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 OP is paid directly to your wallet.
What is the DOT to OP exchange rate?
At the last update, 1 DOT ≈ 8.41037 OP (the best of 2 offers 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 OP?
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 OP swap take?
Usually around 22 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 OP 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 OP Mainnet 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 OP address should I use?
Your OP is paid on OP Mainnet. Use an address that starts with 0x and is 42 characters long. 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 OP rate?
Everything. The exchange's spread, the OP Mainnet 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 OP back to DOT?
Yes. The reverse direction, OP 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.
