Check this before sending LINK

  • The address network is Optimism. Sending through another network almost always means losing the transfer.
  • The transfer must not be smaller than 6.8478 LINK.
  • 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: LINK → OP Optimism

What rate does LINK to OP Optimism run at?
As of Sep 30, 2026 12:00 it is 1 LINK = 110.8516 OP Optimism. The figure updates on its own, and the calculator always shows the current one. On the market that is around $14.31.
What amounts does LINK → OP Optimism accept?
From 6.8478 to 697,000 LINK per order. The floor is roughly $98.20.
Why can I not swap less than 6.8478 LINK?
The network fee and the handling do not depend on the amount. On a transfer below 6.8478 LINK 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 LINK, and the blockchain takes that one.
How long does swapping LINK for OP Optimism take?
The clock starts with confirmations: as soon as Chainlink 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 LINK to OP Optimism rate do over the month?
Over the month, minus 12.43%: a low of 93.9635, a high of 129.1605, an average of 112.0303 OP Optimism per 1 LINK.
Can I swap back, OP Optimism for LINK?
