How the XTZ → USDC BASE exchange runs
- Work out the amount in the calculator — orders start at 321.4959 XTZ.
- Give a USDC address on BASE and a contact for the order.
- Send XTZ on Tezos, exactly the amount the order shows.
- Nothing else is needed from you: as soon as the network confirms the transfer, the robot sends USD Coin to your address. The order page shows the status.
Check this before sending XTZ
- The address network is BASE. Sending through another network almost always means losing the transfer.
- The transfer must not be smaller than 321.4959 XTZ.

- Send exactly the amount stated in the order: the automation matches your payment against it, and any difference sends the order back for recalculation.

What rate does XTZ to USDC BASE run at?
As of Oct 1, 2026 05:25 it is 1 XTZ = 0.315657 USDC BASE. The figure updates on its own, and the calculator always shows the current one. On the market that is around $0.315583.
What amounts does XTZ → USDC BASE accept?
From 321.4959 to 31,700,000 XTZ per order. The floor is roughly $101.54.
Why can I not swap less than 321.4959 XTZ?
The network fee and the handling do not depend on the amount. On a transfer below 321.4959 XTZ 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 XTZ, and the blockchain takes that one.

The clock starts with confirmations: as soon as Tezos 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 USDC BASE arrive in?
The payout goes out on BASE. Check that the receiving wallet supports that network.
Which network is cheaper for receiving USDC?
Usually USDC SOL, USDC Arbitrum, USDC BEP20, USDC AVAX C, USDC Optimism, USDC Polygon works out cheaper. Still, the network is picked by what the recipient accepts, not by the fee.
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.
