Swap Cardano to Polkadot without KYC

Enter the ADA amount on this page, paste your DOT address and send your ADA to the deposit address shown. AltoSwap has no accounts and asks for no identity documents, and it routes your swap through exchanges rated A for KYC, meaning providers that do not run identity checks. The DOT is paid directly to your wallet.

The rate moves with the market every few seconds and depends on the amount. The calculator at the top of this page requests live quotes from 20+ exchanges and shows the best current ADA to DOT rate for the amount you enter.

The minimum is about 11 ADA and the maximum about 3,422,165 ADA. Limits vary slightly between exchanges and follow market prices; the form tells you immediately if your amount is outside the range.

Usually 5 to 30 minutes. Most of that is waiting for your ADA deposit to confirm on Cardano, which takes about 2-5 minutes. There is no verification step, so nothing else adds to the wait.

AltoSwap does not know who you are (no account, no email, no identity checks) and the default route uses no-KYC exchanges. Both Cardano and Polkadot are public ledgers, though, so the transactions themselves are visible on-chain. For on-chain privacy, swap into a privacy coin such as Monero.

Your DOT is paid on Polkadot. Use an address that starts with 1. Always use an address in a wallet you control and double-check the first and last characters before sending.

Everything. The exchange's spread, the Polkadot network fee for the payout and any service commission are already inside the quoted rate, so the amount shown is what you receive: exactly on a fixed rate, approximately on a floating rate. You only pay your own Cardano network fee to send the deposit.

Yes. The reverse direction, DOT to ADA, works the same way and has its own page and live rate on AltoSwap. Each direction is quoted independently, so the two rates are not exact mirrors of each other.
