How the CHR → ETC order runs

  1. Work out the amount in the calculator: orders start at 13,328 CHR.
  2. Enter a ETC address in Ethereum Classic and a way to reach you.
  3. Send CHR in Chromia for exactly the amount stated in the order.
  4. Once the network confirms your transfer, Ethereum Classic leaves for your address. The order page tracks every step.

Swap CHR for ETC

Check this before sending CHR

  • The address network is Ethereum Classic. Sending through another network usually means losing the transfer.
  • The transfer must not be smaller than 13,328 CHR.
  • Copy the address whole, then compare the first and last characters after pasting.
  • Coins go through an AML check: a flagged transfer can be held until the check is finished.

Common questions: CHR → ETC

What rate does CHR to ETC run at?
As of Sep 17, 2026 00:38 it is 1 CHR = 0.00205581 ETC. The figure recalculates on its own, and the calculator always shows the fresh one. In dollars that is around $0.0148224.
What amounts does CHR → ETC accept?
From 13,328 to 672,000,000 CHR per order. The lower limit is roughly $198.43.
Where does the 13,328 CHR floor come from?
Network fees and order handling eat a small transfer alive — below 13,328 CHR the swap stops making sense for either side.
What else is taken on top of the rate?
The payout is already calculated at the rate in the calculator. On top of it you only pay the network fee for sending CHR, and that one goes to the blockchain, not to us.
How long does CHR to ETC take?
The clock starts with confirmations: the order goes into work once Chromia confirms your transfer. After that it comes down to how busy the network is.
Which network will ETC arrive in?
Ethereum Classic leaves in its own Ethereum Classic network — a plain ETC address is all you need.
What if the rate moves while I am paying?
The rate is pinned to the order and does not move while the order is alive. It can be recalculated if the payment arrives late or for a different amount — so send the exact sum, and send it promptly.
Can I go back, ETC to CHR?
Yes, the reverse direction is open: 1 ETC = 488.8739 CHR. The link sits right under the calculator.
