Swap YFI for ETH Optimism

Check this before sending YFI

  • The address network is Optimism. Sending through another network almost always means losing the transfer.
  • The transfer must not be smaller than 0.0417853 YFI.
  • 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.

What rate does YFI to ETH Optimism run at?
As of Sep 30, 2026 17:20 it is 1 YFI = 0.921264 ETH Optimism. The figure updates on its own, and the calculator always shows the current one. On the market that is around $2,482.36.
What amounts does YFI → ETH Optimism accept?
From 0.0417853 to 4,030 YFI per order. The floor is roughly $103.70.
Why can I not swap less than 0.0417853 YFI?

The payout goes out on Optimism. Check that the receiving wallet supports that network.
Which network is cheaper for receiving ETH?
Usually ETH BEP20, ETH Arbitrum, ETH Optimism 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.
What did the YFI to ETH Optimism rate do over the month?
