Most OP to DOT swaps are paid out within 5–15 minutes: the OP deposit needs about a minute to confirm on OP Mainnet, 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 OP in DOT? 1 OP is worth about 0.109444 DOT at the market rate, before fees (market prices, 2 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 OP deposit confirms, so the exchange box shows the exact amount before you send. ### Do I need KYC or an account to exchange OP to DOT? No. GhostSwap has no accounts: you paste the Polkadot address that should receive the DOT, send OP 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 Optimism 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 OP Mainnet to pay the OP Mainnet network fee for sending OP. ### 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 OP 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 OP payment on Optimistic Etherscan (https://optimistic.etherscan.io) and your incoming DOT on Subscan (https://polkadot.subscan.io). ### Is it safe to exchange OP for DOT on GhostSwap? GhostSwap is non-custodial: there is no account balance holding your coins. Your OP 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 OP to DOT swap work? Optimism lives on OP Mainnet and Polkadot on Polkadot, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your OP on OP Mainnet and pays native DOT on Polkadot, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees. ### What happens if my OP to DOT exchange fails? If a swap cannot be completed, the OP is refunded to the OP Mainnet 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 OP](https://ghostswap.io/exchange/dot-op/) ([Markdown](https://ghostswap.io/exchange/dot-op.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)
