Give a BCH address on Bitcoin Cash and a contact for the order.

Swap DOT for BCH

Check this before sending DOT

The address network is Bitcoin Cash. Sending through another network almost always means losing the transfer.
The transfer must not be smaller than 84.2779 DOT.
Copy the address in full, then check its first and last characters once it is pasted.
Send exactly the amount stated in the order: the automation matches your payment against it, and any difference sends the order back for recalculation.

Common questions: DOT → BCH

What rate does DOT to BCH run at?

As of Oct 1, 2026 00:35 it is 1 DOT = 0.00401852 BCH. The figure updates on its own, and the calculator always shows the current one. On the market that is around $1.23.

What amounts does DOT → BCH accept?

From 84.2779 to 8,200,000 DOT per order. The floor is roughly $102.82.

Why can I not swap less than 84.2779 DOT?

The network fee and the handling do not depend on the amount. On a transfer below 84.2779 DOT they eat a noticeable share of it, and the swap stops making sense for either side.

Is anything charged on top of the rate?

No. The payout is already worked out at the rate in the calculator. Separately you pay only the network fee for sending DOT, and the blockchain takes that one.

How long does swapping DOT for BCH take?

The clock starts with confirmations: as soon as Polkadot confirms your transfer, the order goes out for payout with no operator involved. After that the timing is set by how busy the network is — which is the difference between quick and instant. A block in Polkadot closes in about 6 sec.

Which network will BCH arrive in?

Bitcoin Cash arrives in its own Bitcoin Cash network — a plain BCH address is all you need.

What happens if the rate moves while I am paying?

Nothing: the rate is locked in the order and holds for as long as the order is alive. It is recalculated only if the payment arrives late or for a different amount — so send the exact sum, and send it promptly.

What did the DOT to BCH rate do over the month?

Over the month, plus 19.16%: a low of 0.00326347, a high of 0.00489643, an average of 0.00403669 BCH per 1 DOT.

Can I swap back, BCH for DOT?

Yes, the reverse is open too: 1 BCH = 248.843 DOT. The link to switch sits under the calculator.
