The figure is indicative; the exact amount is locked in the order.
The direction runs at 0.00518823 ETH Optimism per LINK, or 192.7441 LINK per ETH Optimism. Market over 24 hours: LINK against ETH Optimism plus 2.69%. The week added plus 6.73%.
The weekly corridor ran from 0.00471236 to 0.00528215 ETH Optimism, a spread of 12.09%. A single order takes 17.6627 to 845,000 LINK. In dollars that is roughly $208.95.
The payout leaves in the Optimism network, so the receiving address has to belong to that network. By market cap Chainlink sits 15th ($9.07 B) and Ethereum 2th ($277.76 B). Daily moves of LINK and ETH over 90 days line up at 0.76 (they travel together).
Who takes the LINK → ETH Optimism route
- Fuel for OptimismWithout Ethereum nothing moves in Optimism — every transfer and every contract call is paid in it.
- Different basketsDaily moves of LINK and ETH over 90 days line up at 0.76 (they travel together) — the looser the link, the less a portfolio depends on one coin.
- A road both waysThe ETH Optimism → LINK direction is open too, so going back into LINK takes the same route.

How the LINK → ETH Optimism order runs
- Work out the amount in the calculator: orders start at 17.6627 LINK.
- Enter a ETH address in Optimism and a way to reach you.
- Send LINK in Chainlink for exactly the amount stated in the order.
- Once the network confirms your transfer, Ethereum leaves for your address. The order page tracks every step.
Check this before sending LINK
- The address network is Optimism. Sending through another network usually means losing the transfer.
- The transfer must not be smaller than 17.6627 LINK.
- 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: LINK → ETH Optimism
What rate does LINK to ETH Optimism run at?
As of Nov 1, 2026 12:24 it is 1 LINK = 0.00518823 ETH Optimism. The figure recalculates on its own, and the calculator always shows the fresh one. In dollars that is around $11.79.

From 17.6627 to 845,000 LINK per order. The lower limit is roughly $208.95.
Where does the 17.6627 LINK floor come from?

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 LINK, and that one goes to the blockchain, not to us.
How long does LINK to ETH Optimism take?
The clock starts with confirmations: the order goes into work once Chainlink confirms your transfer. After that it comes down to how busy the network is.
Which network will ETH Optimism arrive in?
The payout leaves in Optimism. Make sure the receiving wallet works with that network.
Where is receiving ETH cheaper?
The cheapest is usually ETH BEP20, ETH Arbitrum, ETH Optimism. Still, the network is chosen by what the recipient supports, not by the fee.
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.
