Common questions: USDC Optimism → CHR

What rate does USDC Optimism to CHR run at?

As of Sep 30, 2026 09:50 it is 1 USDC Optimism = 45.305 CHR. The figure updates on its own, and the calculator always shows the current one. On the market that is around $0.997164.

What amounts does USDC Optimism → CHR accept?

From 100.67 to 10,000,000 USDC Optimism per order. The floor is roughly $100.65.

Why can I not swap less than 100.67 USDC Optimism?

The network fee and the handling do not depend on the amount. On a transfer below 100.67 USDC Optimism they eat a noticeable share of it, and the swap stops making sense for either side.

Which network will CHR arrive in?

Chromia arrives in its own Chromia network — a plain CHR 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.
