How the LDO → POL exchange runs
- Work out the amount in the calculator — orders start at 213.7367 LDO.
- Give a POL address on Polygon PoS and a contact for the order.
- Send LDO on Lido DAO, exactly the amount the order shows.
- Nothing else is needed from you: as soon as the network confirms the transfer, the robot sends Polygon to your address. The order page shows the status.
Check this before sending LDO
- The address network is Polygon PoS. Sending through another network almost always means losing the transfer.
- The transfer must not be smaller than 213.7367 LDO.
- 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 LDO → POL route
- Fuel for Polygon PoSWithout Polygon you cannot pay for a transfer or a contract call in Polygon PoS — the coin is needed for anything that happens in that ecosystem.
- Different basketsDaily moves of LDO and POL over 90 days link at 0.24 (they travel apart) — the weaker the link, the less a portfolio rests on one coin.
- It works both waysThe POL → LDO direction is open as well — going back into LDO takes the same route and the same automation.
Common questions: LDO → POL
What rate does LDO to POL run at?
As of Oct 1, 2026 00:35 it is 1 LDO = 4.1052 POL. The figure updates on its own, and the calculator always shows the current one. On the market that is around $0.45952.
What amounts does LDO → POL accept?
From 213.7367 to 21,900,000 LDO per order. The floor is roughly $97.59.
Why can I not swap less than 213.7367 LDO?
The network fee and the handling do not depend on the amount. On a transfer below 213.7367 LDO 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 LDO, and the blockchain takes that one.
How long does swapping LDO for POL take?
The clock starts with confirmations: as soon as Lido DAO 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 POL arrive in?
Polygon arrives in its own Polygon PoS network — a plain POL 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 LDO to POL rate do over the month?
Over the month, plus 13.33%: a low of 3.6013, a high of 4.2349, an average of 3.9219 POL per 1 LDO.
Can I swap back, POL for LDO?
Yes, the reverse is open too: 1 POL = 0.243588 LDO. The link to switch sits under the calculator.
