FIL to ADA: questions and answers
How do I swap FIL to ADA without KYC?
Enter the FIL amount on this page, choose an offer, paste your ADA address and send your FIL 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 ADA is paid directly to your wallet.
What is the FIL to ADA exchange rate?
At the last update, 1 FIL ≈ 4.30459 ADA (the best of 12 offers for 250 FIL). 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 FIL to ADA?
The minimum is about 4.52 FIL and the maximum about 1,411,873 FIL. 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 FIL to ADA swap take?
Usually around 8 min. Most of that is waiting for your FIL deposit to confirm on Filecoin, which takes about 5-15 minutes. There is no verification step, so nothing else adds to the wait.
Is swapping FIL to ADA anonymous?
AltoSwap does not know who you are (no account, no email, no identity checks) and the default route uses no-KYC exchanges. Both Filecoin and Cardano 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 ADA address should I use?
Your ADA is paid on Cardano. Use an address that starts with addr1. 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 FIL to ADA rate?
Everything. The exchange's spread, the Cardano 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 Filecoin network fee to send the deposit.
Can I swap ADA back to FIL?
Yes. The reverse direction, ADA to FIL, 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.
