Who takes the LDO → ETC route
- Fuel for Ethereum ClassicWithout Ethereum Classic nothing moves in Ethereum Classic — every transfer and every contract call is paid in it.
- Different basketsDaily moves of LDO and ETC over 90 days line up at 0.2 (they travel apart) — the looser the link, the less a portfolio depends on one coin.
- A road both waysThe ETC → LDO direction is open too, so going back into LDO takes the same route.

How the LDO → ETC order runs
- Work out the amount in the calculator: orders start at 599.7001 LDO.
- Enter a ETC address in Ethereum Classic and a way to reach you.
- Send LDO in Lido DAO for exactly the amount stated in the order.
- Once the network confirms your transfer, Ethereum Classic leaves for your address. The order page tracks every step.
Check this before sending LDO
- The address network is Ethereum Classic. Sending through another network usually means losing the transfer.
- The transfer must not be smaller than 599.7001 LDO.
- 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: LDO → ETC
What rate does LDO to ETC run at?
As of Nov 2, 2026 03:44 it is 1 LDO = 0.0479502 ETC. The figure recalculates on its own, and the calculator always shows the fresh one. In dollars that is around $0.340926.
What amounts does LDO → ETC accept?
From 599.7001 to 29,500,000 LDO per order. The lower limit is roughly $203.48.
Where does the 599.7001 LDO floor come from?
Network fees and order handling eat a small transfer alive — below 599.7001 LDO 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 LDO, and that one goes to the blockchain, not to us.
How long does LDO to ETC take?
The clock starts with confirmations: the order goes into work once Lido DAO 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.
What did the LDO to ETC rate do this month?
The month came in at minus 5.1%. Low 0.0463331, high 0.0541335, middle 0.0503136 ETC per LDO.
Can I go back, ETC to LDO?
Yes, the reverse direction is open: 1 ETC = 20.9599 LDO. The link sits right under the calculator.
