Most ARB to DOT swaps are paid out within 5–15 minutes: the ARB deposit needs about a minute to confirm on Arbitrum One, then the DOT is sent to your wallet, and Polkadot confirms the payout in under a minute. Busy networks can add a few minutes. ### How much is 1 ARB in DOT? 1 ARB is worth about 0.168528 DOT at the market rate, before fees (market prices, 8 Oct 2026). GhostSwap's quote in the exchange box already includes the service fee and the DOT network fee. The rate floats with the market until your ARB deposit confirms, so the exchange box shows the exact amount before you send. ### Do I need KYC or an account to exchange ARB to DOT? No. GhostSwap has no accounts: you paste the Polkadot address that should receive the DOT, send ARB from your own wallet, and the DOT goes straight to that address. No email, phone number or ID upload. ### What are the fees for converting Arbitrum to Polkadot? The GhostSwap fee is already included in the rate in the exchange box, so the DOT amount you see is what you receive. On top of that, your wallet needs a little ETH on Arbitrum to pay the Arbitrum One network fee for sending ARB. ### What wallet should I use to receive DOT? To receive Polkadot from your swap, we recommend using Nova Wallet, Talisman or SubWallet. Make sure your wallet supports the Polkadot network before starting the exchange. Double-check your DOT address before confirming, cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed. ### What format is the DOT address? Use a Polkadot address: it starts with 1. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand. ### Can I track my ARB to DOT swap? Yes. After initiating your swap, GhostSwap provides a transaction status page where you can monitor progress in real-time. You can also track your ARB payment on Arbiscan (https://arbiscan.io) and your incoming DOT on Subscan (https://polkadot.subscan.io). ### Is it safe to exchange ARB for DOT on GhostSwap? GhostSwap is non-custodial: there is no account balance holding your coins. Your ARB deposit is converted and the DOT is sent straight to the Polkadot address you enter, so check that address twice, Polkadot transfers cannot be reversed. ### How does a cross-chain ARB to DOT swap work? Arbitrum lives on Arbitrum One and Polkadot on Polkadot, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your ARB on Arbitrum One and pays native DOT on Polkadot, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees. ### What happens if my ARB to DOT exchange fails? If a swap cannot be completed, the ARB is refunded to the Arbitrum One address you entered as the sender address. If something looks stuck, contact support with your swap ID from the status page. Most problems come from sending a different amount than shown or using an address on the wrong network. ## Related - [Reverse: DOT to ARB](https://ghostswap.io/exchange/dot-arb/) ([Markdown](https://ghostswap.io/exchange/dot-arb.md)) - [All GhostSwap pairs](https://ghostswap.io/exchange/) - [How to exchange](https://ghostswap.io/how-to-exchange/) - [Site guide for AI assistants](https://ghostswap.io/llms.txt)
