Ethereum Classic (ETC) → Optimism (OP Optimism)
The order runs on autopilot: the rate is locked when you create it, and the payout leaves as soon as the network confirms your transfer. No manual approval, no working hours.

Right now 1 ETC gets you 68.5511 OP Optimism; the other way round, 1 OP Optimism is 0.0145877 ETC. Over 24 hours ETC/OP Optimism came in at minus 1.63%. Over the week, minus 5.56%.
The weekly range ran from 63.1891 to 77.5725 OP Optimism, a spread of 22.76%. One order takes from 10.8538 to 1,110,000 ETC. In dollars that is roughly $97.68.
The robot sends the payout in the Optimism network, so the address has to belong to that network — a transfer to another one will not arrive. Market capitalisation puts Ethereum Classic at No. 65 ($1.43 B) and Optimism at No. 152 ($301.89 M). Over 90 days the daily moves of ETC and OP correlate at 0.44 (they travel alike).

How the ETC → OP Optimism exchange runs
- Work out the amount in the calculator — orders start at 10.8538 ETC.
- Give a OP address on Optimism and a contact for the order.
- Send ETC on Ethereum Classic, exactly the amount the order shows.
- Nothing else is needed from you: as soon as the network confirms the transfer, the robot sends Optimism to your address. The order page shows the status.
Check this before sending ETC
- The address network is Optimism. Sending through another network almost always means losing the transfer.
- The transfer must not be smaller than 10.8538 ETC.
- 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 ETC → OP Optimism route
- Fuel for OptimismWithout Optimism you cannot pay for a transfer or a contract call in Optimism — the coin is needed for anything that happens in that ecosystem.
- Different basketsDaily moves of ETC and OP over 90 days link at 0.44 (they travel alike) — the weaker the link, the less a portfolio rests on one coin.
- It works both waysThe OP Optimism → ETC direction is open as well — going back into ETC takes the same route and the same automation.
Common questions: ETC → OP Optimism
What rate does ETC to OP Optimism run at?
As of Oct 1, 2026 09:55 it is 1 ETC = 68.5511 OP Optimism. The figure updates on its own, and the calculator always shows the current one. On the market that is around $9.00.
What amounts does ETC → OP Optimism accept?
From 10.8538 to 1,110,000 ETC per order. The floor is roughly $97.68.
Why can I not swap less than 10.8538 ETC?
The network fee and the handling do not depend on the amount. On a transfer below 10.8538 ETC 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 ETC, and the blockchain takes that one.
How long does swapping ETC for OP Optimism take?
The clock starts with confirmations: as soon as Ethereum Classic 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.
Which network will OP Optimism arrive in?
The payout goes out on Optimism. Check that the receiving wallet supports that network.
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 ETC to OP Optimism rate do over the month?
Over the month, minus 17.77%: a low of 64.2755, a high of 83.1072, an average of 73.5256 OP Optimism per 1 ETC.
Can I swap back, OP Optimism for ETC?
Yes, the reverse is open too: 1 OP Optimism = 0.0145874 ETC. The link to switch sits under the calculator.
