BTC (Lightning) to DAI: questions and answers

How do I swap BTC (Lightning) to DAI without KYC?

Enter the BTC amount on this page, paste your DAI address and send your BTC 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 DAI is paid directly to your wallet.

What is the BTC (Lightning) to DAI exchange rate?

At the last update, 1 BTC ≈ 71,212.2 DAI (from 1 offer found for 0.005 BTC). Rates move with the market every few seconds, so use the calculator at the top of the page for the live rate on your exact amount.

What are the minimum and maximum for BTC (Lightning) to DAI?

The minimum is about 0.000064 BTC and the maximum about 20 BTC. Limits vary slightly between exchanges and follow market prices; the form tells you immediately if your amount is outside the range.

How long does a BTC (Lightning) to DAI swap take?

Usually around 7 min. Most of that is waiting for your BTC deposit to confirm on Lightning Network, which takes a few seconds. There is no verification step, so nothing else adds to the wait.

Is swapping BTC (Lightning) to DAI anonymous?

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

Which DAI address should I use?

Your DAI is paid on Ethereum. Use an address that starts with 0x and is 42 characters long. Always use an address in a wallet you control and double-check the first and last characters before sending.

What fees are included in the BTC (Lightning) to DAI rate?

Everything. The exchange's spread, the Ethereum 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 Lightning Network network fee to send the deposit.

Can I swap DAI back to BTC (Lightning)?

Yes. The reverse direction, DAI to BTC (Lightning), 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.
