Who takes the ERA → ADA route

  • Fuel for CardanoWithout Cardano nothing moves in Cardano — every transfer and every contract call is paid in it.
  • Different basketsDaily moves of ERA and ADA over 90 days line up at 0.37 (they travel apart) — the looser the link, the less a portfolio depends on one coin.
  • A road both waysThe ADA → ERA direction is open too, so going back into ERA takes the same route.

How the ERA → ADA order runs

  1. Work out the amount in the calculator: orders start at 3,623.19 ERA.
  2. Enter a ADA address in Cardano and a way to reach you.
  3. Send ERA in Caldera for exactly the amount stated in the order.
  4. Once the network confirms your transfer, Cardano leaves for your address. The order page tracks every step.

Swap ERA for ADA

Check this before sending ERA

  • The address network is Cardano. Sending through another network usually means losing the transfer.
  • The transfer must not be smaller than 3,623.19 ERA.
  • 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: ERA → ADA

What rate does ERA to ADA run at?
As of Sep 17, 2026 18:43 it is 1 ERA = 0.286202 ADA. The figure recalculates on its own, and the calculator always shows the fresh one. In dollars that is around $0.0574115.
What amounts does ERA → ADA accept?
From 3,623.19 to 173,000,000 ERA per order. The lower limit is roughly $209.97.
Where does the 3,623.19 ERA floor come from?
Network fees and order handling eat a small transfer alive — below 3,623.19 ERA 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 ERA, and that one goes to the blockchain, not to us.
How long does ERA to ADA take?
The clock starts with confirmations: the order goes into work once Caldera confirms your transfer. After that it comes down to how busy the network is.
Which network will ADA arrive in?
Cardano leaves in its own Cardano network — a plain ADA 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.
What did the ERA to ADA rate do this month?
The month came in at minus 17.5%. Low 0.262738, high 0.344369, middle 0.286635 ADA per ERA.
Can I go back, ADA to ERA?
Yes, the reverse direction is open: 1 ADA = 3.5116 ERA. The link sits right under the calculator.
