ETC to DCR: questions and answers
How do I swap ETC to DCR without KYC?
Enter the ETC amount on this page, paste your DCR address and send your ETC 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 DCR is paid directly to your wallet.
What is the ETC to DCR exchange rate?
At the last update, 1 ETC ≈ 0.561465 DCR (the best of 2 offers for 25 ETC). 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 ETC to DCR?
The minimum is about 0.445 ETC and the maximum about 139,000 ETC. 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 ETC to DCR swap take?
Usually around 65 min. Most of that is waiting for your ETC deposit to confirm on Ethereum Classic, which takes longer than most chains, because providers wait for many confirmations. There is no verification step, so nothing else adds to the wait.
Is swapping ETC to DCR anonymous?
AltoSwap does not know who you are (no account, no email, no identity checks) and the default route uses no-KYC exchanges. Both Ethereum Classic and Decred 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 DCR address should I use?
Your DCR is paid on Decred. Use an address that starts with Ds. 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 ETC to DCR rate?
Everything. The exchange's spread, the Decred 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 Ethereum Classic network fee to send the deposit.
Can I swap DCR back to ETC?
Yes. The reverse direction, DCR to ETC, 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.
