What rate does ORCA to ADA run at?

Where does the 153.6098 ORCA floor come from?

What else is taken on top of the rate?

How long does ORCA to ADA take?

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 ORCA to ADA rate do this month?
