Chainlink (LINK) to Lido DAO (LDO) FAQ
- What does the LINK to LDO rate mean?
- It is how much Lido DAO (LDO) you receive for each Chainlink (LINK) 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 LINK to LDO?
- Enter the amount of LINK in the widget, choose LDO as what you receive, and give a Lido DAO address. You are shown a deposit address and an exact LINK amount; send that amount and the LDO is paid to your address once the deposit confirms. No account is needed at any step.
- What are the fees to exchange LINK for LDO?
- 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 Lido DAO payout transaction. There is nothing added afterwards — the LDO amount in the quote is the LDO amount that arrives.
- What is the minimum LINK/LDO exchange amount?
- $100 worth, shown in the widget as an amount of LINK at the current rate. There is no maximum imposed by the site beyond available Lido DAO liquidity, and no verification at any size.
- Do I need an ID to swap LINK to LDO?
- 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 LINK to LDO swaps take?
- Chainlink deposits usually confirm in a few 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 Lido DAO address should I give?
- Any address in a format Lido DAO accepts: 0x followed by 40 hexadecimal characters.
- What happens if my LINK 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 LINK. 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 LDO back to LINK?
- Yes — every pair works in both directions. The LDO to LINK page is linked below.
