Why exchange Bitcoin Cash (BCH) to Polkadot (DOT)?
Exchange BCH for DOT and the Polkadot goes to an address you control. No account to open, no balance left with us.
The BCH/DOT exchange rate, the network fee and the swap fee are shown before you send a single BCH. The DOT amount quoted is the DOT amount you get.
Nothing is asked of you beyond a Polkadot address. Send the exact BCH figure shown on your swap page, including every decimal place — a rounded amount needs manual review and takes longer.
Sending Bitcoin Cash
Bitcoin Cash forked from Bitcoin in 2017 with larger blocks, aiming at cheap on-chain payments.
Bitcoin Cash blocks arrive about 10 minutes, so a deposit usually confirms in 10–30 minutes.
Your BCH deposit is verified on the Bitcoin Cash network before the swap proceeds — typically 10–30 minutes after you send.
Make sure you are sending Bitcoin Cash and not Bitcoin — the two chains share an address format history and a mistaken send is lost.
Receiving Polkadot
Polkadot is a network of interconnected chains secured by a shared relay chain; DOT is its native asset.
Your Polkadot goes to the address you give, and only that address. Accepted formats: Polkadot addresses start with 1.
The payout is sent once your deposit is confirmed. Polkadot blocks arrive about 6 seconds, so it is usually spendable within minutes of being sent.

Bitcoin Cash (BCH) to Polkadot (DOT) FAQ
- What does the BCH to DOT rate mean?
- It is how much Polkadot (DOT) you receive for each Bitcoin Cash (BCH) you send, taken from live market prices at the moment you ask for a quote. The rate moves with the market, so you have 90 seconds to accept a quote and create the swap; the widget refreshes it automatically if you take longer. Funding the swap once it exists has its own separate deadline, shown on your swap page.
- How do I convert BCH to DOT?
- Enter the amount of BCH in the widget, choose DOT as what you receive, and give a Polkadot address. You are shown a deposit address and an exact BCH amount; send that amount and the DOT is paid to your address once the deposit confirms. No account is needed at any step.
- What are the fees to exchange BCH for DOT?
- Two, both shown in the quote before you send: a swap fee of 0.5% of the amount, and a network-fee charge for the Polkadot payout transaction. There is nothing added afterwards — the DOT amount in the quote is the DOT amount that arrives.
- What is the minimum BCH/DOT exchange amount?
- $100 worth, shown in the widget as an amount of BCH at the current rate. There is no maximum imposed by the site beyond available Polkadot liquidity, and no verification at any size.
- Do I need an ID to swap BCH to DOT?
- No. There is no KYC, no account and no email required. A swap is identified by its link, which shows its status without logging in. Creating an account is optional and only keeps your swap history in one place.
- How long do BCH to DOT swaps take?
- Bitcoin Cash deposits usually confirm in 10–30 minutes, after which the deposit is verified on-chain. Swap times vary by asset and by how quickly its network confirms. Your swap status page shows the current stage throughout the process.
- Which Polkadot address should I give?
- Any address in a format Polkadot accepts: Polkadot addresses start with 1.
- What happens if my BCH deposit is late or the swap expires?
- There are two separate deadlines. The quote itself is held for 90 seconds — that is how long you have to accept the price and create the swap. Once the swap exists you get a separate funding window, shown on your swap page, to send the BCH. If your deposit arrives after that window closes, the status page shows Expired and the swap moves to Review required; it is then completed at the current rate or refunded to your refund address. Nothing is lost by being late — a late deposit just needs review before it is processed.
- Can I swap DOT back to BCH?
- Yes — every pair works in both directions. The DOT to BCH page is linked below.
