How the DOT → XTZ exchange runs
- Work out the amount in the calculator — orders start at 84.2779 DOT.
- Give a XTZ address on Tezos and a contact for the order.
- Send DOT on Polkadot, exactly the amount the order shows.
- Nothing else is needed from you: as soon as the network confirms the transfer, the robot sends Tezos to your address. The order page shows the status.
Check this before sending DOT
- The address network is Tezos. 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.

Why people take the DOT → XTZ route
- Fuel for TezosWithout Tezos you cannot pay for a transfer or a contract call in Tezos — the coin is needed for anything that happens in that ecosystem.
- Different basketsDaily moves of DOT and XTZ over 90 days link at 0.57 (they travel alike) — the weaker the link, the less a portfolio rests on one coin.
- It works both waysThe XTZ → DOT direction is open as well — going back into DOT takes the same route and the same automation.
Common questions: DOT → XTZ
What rate does DOT to XTZ run at?
As of Sep 30, 2026 16:55 it is 1 DOT = 3.8745 XTZ. The figure updates on its own, and the calculator always shows the current one. On the market that is around $1.22.
What amounts does DOT → XTZ 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 XTZ 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 XTZ arrive in?
Tezos arrives in its own Tezos network — a plain XTZ 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 XTZ rate do over the month?
Over the month, plus 1.43%: a low of 3.0745, a high of 5.0032, an average of 3.8741 XTZ per 1 DOT.
Can I swap back, XTZ for DOT?
Yes, the reverse is open too: 1 XTZ = 0.25809 DOT. The link to switch sits under the calculator.
