The figure is indicative; the exact amount is locked in the order.

One ETC buys 37.1285 ADA right now; the other way round, 1 ADA is 0.0269335 ETC. Market over 24 hours: ETC against ADA plus 0.24%. The week added plus 0.68%.

The weekly corridor ran from 36.6459 to 37.4333 ADA, a spread of 2.15%. A single order takes 2.5 to 1,400,000 ETC. In dollars that is roughly $17.85.

By market cap Ethereum Classic sits 69th ($1.13 B) and Cardano 18th ($7.23 B). Daily moves of ETC and ADA over 90 days line up at 0.73 (they travel together).

Who takes the ETC → ADA route

  • Fuel for CardanoWithout Cardano nothing moves in Cardano — every transfer and every contract call is paid in it.
  • Different basketsDaily moves of ETC and ADA over 90 days line up at 0.73 (they travel together) — the looser the link, the less a portfolio depends on one coin.
  • A road both waysThe ADA → ETC direction is open too, so going back into ETC takes the same route.

How the ETC → ADA order runs

  1. Work out the amount in the calculator: orders start at 2.5 ETC.
  2. Enter a ADA address in Cardano and a way to reach you.
  3. Send ETC in Ethereum Classic 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 ETC for ADA

Check this before sending ETC

  • The address network is Cardano. Sending through another network usually means losing the transfer.
  • The transfer must not be smaller than 2.5 ETC.
  • 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: ETC → ADA

What rate does ETC to ADA run at?
As of Nov 1, 2026 16:19 it is 1 ETC = 37.1285 ADA. The figure recalculates on its own, and the calculator always shows the fresh one. In dollars that is around $7.14.
What amounts does ETC → ADA accept?
From 2.5 to 1,400,000 ETC per order. The lower limit is roughly $17.85.
Where does the 2.5 ETC floor come from?
Network fees and order handling eat a small transfer alive — below 2.5 ETC 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 ETC, and that one goes to the blockchain, not to us.
How long does ETC to ADA take?
The clock starts with confirmations: the order goes into work once Ethereum Classic 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 ETC to ADA rate do this month?
The month came in at plus 1.79%. Low 33.044, high 37.2506, middle 35.4292 ADA per ETC.
Can I go back, ADA to ETC?
Yes, the reverse direction is open: 1 ADA = 0.0271012 ETC. The link sits right under the calculator.
