Common questions: ETC → DAI

What rate does ETC to DAI run at?

As of Sep 17, 2026 01:28 it is 1 ETC = 7.2479 DAI. The figure recalculates on its own, and the calculator always shows the fresh one. In dollars that is around $7.25.

What amounts does ETC → DAI accept?

From 26.9709 to 1,370,000 ETC per order. The lower limit is roughly $196.35.

Where does the 26.9709 ETC floor come from?

Network fees and order handling eat a small transfer alive — below 26.9709 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 DAI 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 DAI arrive in?

Dai leaves in its own Dai network — a plain DAI 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, DAI to ETC?

Yes, the reverse direction is open: 1 DAI = 0.138096 ETC. The link sits right under the calculator.
