How the OP Optimism → ADA exchange runs
- Work out the amount in the calculator — orders start at 772.0092 OP Optimism.
- Give a ADA address on Cardano and a contact for the order.
- Send OP Optimism on Optimism, exactly the amount the order shows.
- Nothing else is needed from you: as soon as the network confirms the transfer, the robot sends Cardano to your address. The order page shows the status.
Check this before sending OP Optimism
- The address network is Cardano. Sending through another network almost always means losing the transfer.
- The transfer must not be smaller than 772.0092 OP Optimism.
- 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.

- Different basketsDaily moves of OP and ADA over 90 days link at 0.34 (they travel apart) — the weaker the link, the less a portfolio rests on one coin.
- It works both waysThe ADA → OP Optimism direction is open as well — going back into OP takes the same route and the same automation.
Common questions: OP Optimism → ADA
What rate does OP Optimism to ADA run at?
As of Oct 1, 2026 03:30 it is 1 OP Optimism = 0.525932 ADA. The figure updates on its own, and the calculator always shows the current one. On the market that is around $0.129072.
What amounts does OP Optimism → ADA accept?
From 772.0092 to 77,500,000 OP Optimism per order. The floor is roughly $99.56.
Why can I not swap less than 772.0092 OP Optimism?
The network fee and the handling do not depend on the amount. On a transfer below 772.0092 OP Optimism 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 OP Optimism, and the blockchain takes that one.
How long does swapping OP Optimism for ADA take?
The clock starts with confirmations: as soon as Optimism 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 ADA arrive in?
Cardano arrives in its own Cardano network — a plain ADA 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 OP Optimism to ADA rate do over the month?
Over the month, plus 20.31%: a low of 0.448622, a high of 0.584961, an average of 0.502626 ADA per 1 OP Optimism.
Can I swap back, ADA for OP Optimism?
Yes, the reverse is open too: 1 ADA = 1.9013 OP Optimism. The link to switch sits under the calculator.
