Exchange in 3 steps
-
Choose how much ETH to send and enter your Decred address on Decred mainnet.
-
Hit Exchange to open your order page with the live rate and deposit details.
-
Transfer ETH to the address on your order — after confirmations, DCR is sent to your wallet automatically.
What do you need to know?
- Ethereum deposits confirm quickly — usually within a few blocks (~12s each).
- During gas spikes, confirmation cost rises but inclusion remains fast.
- Send ETH on Ethereum mainnet only — not BSC, Base, or other L2s unless your order says otherwise.
- DCR not visible yet? Wait a few minutes, resync your wallet, then contact support with your order ID if the payout tx is already listed.
Ethereum — programmable money on-chain
ETH powers Ethereum mainnet — gas, staking, DeFi, and most smart-contract activity in crypto live here.
Sending ETH to the right network
Use an Ethereum mainnet wallet for deposits. L2 or alternate-chain sends may not be credited.
Leave enough ETH in your wallet to cover gas on top of the swap amount.
Decred
Always match DCR on Decred mainnet when you send or receive — wrong-network transfers may not be credited.
Receiving DCR
Your wallet must be on Decred mainnet.
Allow a few minutes after the order shows sent before opening support.

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