Frequently asked questions
Do I need KYC to swap DCR to ATOM?
No. SendSwap is a non-custodial instant exchange — no account, no ID checks, and no KYC for Decred to Cosmos swaps.
How long does DCR to ATOM take?
Most swaps finish in 1–5 minutes. Timing depends on Decred mainnet and Cosmos mainnet confirmations and current network load.
Is DCR to ATOM non-custodial?
Yes. You send DCR from your wallet and receive ATOM directly to the address you provide — SendSwap never holds your keys.
What if I send DCR on the wrong network?
Always match the network on your order page (Decred mainnet for deposits). Wrong-network sends may not be credited — read our swap safety guides before you send.
