Polygon (POL) → Ethereum (ETH Optimism)
Value moves from Polygon PoS to OP Mainnet (Optimism), and what lands is native ETH, not a wrapper. Nothing to connect anywhere.

The figure is indicative; the exact amount is locked in the order.
Today POL goes for 0.0000398531 ETH Optimism, and ETH Optimism goes for 25,092.14 POL. Market over 24 hours: POL against ETH Optimism plus 4.92%. The week added plus 0.63%.
The weekly corridor ran from 0.0000369504 to 0.0000403392 ETH Optimism, a spread of 9.17%. A single order takes 2,093.58 to 103,000,000 POL. In dollars that is roughly $203.44.
The payout leaves in the Optimism network, so the receiving address has to belong to that network. By market cap Polygon sits 72th ($1.04 B) and Ethereum 2th ($296.81 B). Daily moves of POL and ETH over 90 days line up at 0.58 (they travel alike).
Who takes the POL → 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 POL and ETH over 90 days line up at 0.58 (they travel alike) — the looser the link, the less a portfolio depends on one coin.
- A road both waysThe ETH Optimism → POL direction is open too, so going back into POL takes the same route.

Payout network for ETH
The same ETH goes out in several networks. Rates and lower limits differ, and the fee is charged by the network itself.

How the POL → ETH Optimism order runs
- Work out the amount in the calculator: orders start at 2,093.58 POL.
- Enter a ETH address in Optimism and a way to reach you.
- Send POL in Polygon PoS 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 POL
- The address network is Optimism. Sending through another network usually means losing the transfer.
- The transfer must not be smaller than 2,093.58 POL.
- Copy the address whole, then compare the first and last characters after pasting.
- Ethereum, Arbitrum, Optimism, BNB Smart Chain and Polygon all use the same address shape (0x…). Make sure the wallet is switched to OP Mainnet (Optimism).
- Coins go through an AML check: a flagged transfer can be held until the check is finished.
Polygon PoS against OP Mainnet (Optimism)
| Polygon PoS | OP Mainnet (Optimism) | |
|---|---|---|
| Network type | Sidechain with checkpoints in Ethereum | L2, optimistic rollup |
| Fees are paid in | POL | ETH |
| Fee level | ≈ $0.00056 | ≈ < $0.0001 |
| Speed | fast | fast |
| Block | ~2 sec | ~2 sec |
| Address shape | 0x… | 0x… |
| Memo or tag | not needed | not needed |
| Ethereum-style address (0x…) | yes | yes |
| Official withdrawal to Ethereum | — | ≈ 7 days (challenge period) |
Fee and speed levels are comparative: both move with how busy the network is.
How this differs from a classic bridge
| RubyCash | Classic bridge | |
|---|---|---|
| What lands at your address | native ETH in OP Mainnet (Optimism) | Usually a wrapper like WBTC, which then has to be swapped |
| Wallet and signatures | Not needed: the coins go to the address from the order | Needed: connect the wallet and sign contract transactions |
| A coin for fees in OP Mainnet (Optimism) | Not needed to receive | Often needed, or the funds cannot be claimed or moved on |
| Timing | After confirmations in Polygon PoS; the order page tracks it | Depends on the bridge and the load of both networks |
| Who holds the funds meanwhile | RubyCash for the life of the order, with an AML check | The bridge contract or its validators |

Common questions: POL → ETH Optimism
What rate does POL to ETH Optimism run at?
As of Sep 17, 2026 07:08 it is 1 POL = 0.0000398531 ETH Optimism. The figure recalculates on its own, and the calculator always shows the fresh one. In dollars that is around $0.0969224.
What amounts does POL → ETH Optimism accept?
From 2,093.58 to 103,000,000 POL per order. The lower limit is roughly $203.44.
Where does the 2,093.58 POL floor come from?
Network fees and order handling eat a small transfer alive — below 2,093.58 POL 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 POL, and that one goes to the blockchain, not to us.
How long does POL to ETH Optimism take?
The clock starts with confirmations: the order goes into work once Polygon PoS confirms your transfer. After that it comes down to how busy the network is. A block in Polygon PoS closes in about 2 sec.
Will native ETH arrive, or a wrapper?
Native. ETH Optimism is the network's own coin in OP Mainnet (Optimism), and its fees are paid in it too.
Do I need ETH to receive ETH Optimism?
No. Fees in OP Mainnet (Optimism) are paid in ETH Optimism, so no separate coin is needed.
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.
What did the POL to ETH Optimism rate do this month?
The month came in at minus 2.5%. Low 0.0000348904, high 0.0000501654, middle 0.0000402596 ETH Optimism per POL.
Can I go back, ETH Optimism to POL?
Yes, the reverse direction is open: 1 ETH Optimism = 25,218.42 POL. The link sits right under the calculator.
