Swap USDC XLM for ALGO

Check this before sending USDC XLM

  • The address network is Algorand. Sending through another network almost always means losing the transfer.
  • The transfer must not be smaller than 100.67 USDC XLM.
  • 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: USDC XLM → ALGO

What rate does USDC XLM to ALGO run at?
As of Oct 1, 2026 00:15 it is 1 USDC XLM = 8.0063 ALGO. The figure updates on its own, and the calculator always shows the current one. On the market that is around $0.998981.
What amounts does USDC XLM → ALGO accept?
From 100.67 to 10,000,000 USDC XLM per order. The floor is roughly $100.66.
Why can I not swap less than 100.67 USDC XLM?
The network fee and the handling do not depend on the amount. On a transfer below 100.67 USDC XLM 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 USDC XLM, and the blockchain takes that one.
How long does swapping USDC XLM for ALGO take?
The clock starts with confirmations: as soon as XLM 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 ALGO arrive in?
Algorand arrives in its own Algorand network — a plain ALGO 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 USDC XLM to ALGO rate do over the month?
Over the month, minus 32.69%: a low of 7.3539, a high of 11.8233, an average of 10.047 ALGO per 1 USDC XLM.
Can I swap back, ALGO for USDC XLM?
