LINK to ALGO: questions and answers
How do I swap LINK to ALGO without KYC?
Enter the LINK amount on this page, choose an offer, paste your ALGO address and send your LINK 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 ALGO is paid directly to your wallet.
What is the LINK to ALGO exchange rate?
The rate moves with the market every few seconds and depends on the amount. The calculator at the top of this page requests live quotes from 20+ exchanges and shows the best current LINK to ALGO rate for the amount you enter.
What are the minimum and maximum for LINK to ALGO?
The minimum is about 0.4 LINK and the maximum about 125,000 LINK. 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 LINK to ALGO swap take?
Usually 5 to 30 minutes. Most of that is waiting for your LINK deposit to confirm on Ethereum, which takes about 2-5 minutes. There is no verification step, so nothing else adds to the wait.
Is swapping LINK to ALGO anonymous?
AltoSwap does not know who you are (no account, no email, no identity checks) and the default route uses no-KYC exchanges. Both Ethereum and Algorand 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 ALGO address should I use?
Your ALGO is paid on Algorand. Use an address that is 58 characters long. If your wallet or exchange gave you a note (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 LINK to ALGO rate?
Everything. The exchange's spread, the Algorand 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 Ethereum network fee to send the deposit.
Can I swap ALGO back to LINK?
Yes. The reverse direction, ALGO to LINK, 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.
