XTZ to OP: questions and answers
How do I swap XTZ to OP without KYC?
Enter the XTZ amount on this page, paste your OP address and send your XTZ 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 OP is paid directly to your wallet.
What is the XTZ to OP exchange rate?
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 XTZ to OP rate for the amount you enter.
What are the minimum and maximum for XTZ to OP?
The minimum is about 11.7 XTZ and the maximum about 3,664,198 XTZ. 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 XTZ to OP swap take?
Usually 5 to 30 minutes. Most of that is waiting for your XTZ deposit to confirm on Tezos, which takes about 1-2 minutes. There is no verification step, so nothing else adds to the wait.
Is swapping XTZ to OP anonymous?
AltoSwap does not know who you are (no account, no email, no identity checks) and the default route uses no-KYC exchanges. Both Tezos and OP Mainnet 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 OP address should I use?
Your OP is paid on OP Mainnet. 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 XTZ to OP rate?
Everything. The exchange's spread, the OP Mainnet 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 Tezos network fee to send the deposit.
Can I swap OP back to XTZ?
Yes. The reverse direction, OP to XTZ, 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.
