Three steps on ToSwap
-
Set the DCR amount and paste the Cardano address that should collect payout on Cardano mainnet.
-
Tap Exchange to lock the live ToSwap quote and reveal this order’s deposit details.
-
Send exactly that DCR amount to the deposit. After Decred mainnet confirms, ADA is pushed to your wallet.
Before you broadcast
- Payout starts after Decred mainnet has enough confirmations.
- If a deposit sits unconfirmed, check chain status — congestion can slow inclusion.
- Broadcast only DCR on Decred mainnet to the deposit shown on your order.
- If ADA is late, refresh your wallet and re-check the order status. When a payout hash is already listed, email or SimpleX support with your Exchange ID — ToSwap has no login that can reopen expired pages.
Decred
Credit DCR only on Decred mainnet. A transfer on any other chain will not show up on this order.
Deposit checklist
Open a wallet that can send on Decred mainnet.
The wallet network must match the deposit network printed on the order.
Cardano — research-driven layer-1
ADA is the native token of Cardano — a proof-of-stake network focused on security and formal verification.
ADA payout delays
Resync your Cardano wallet if the order shows a sent transaction but balance is unchanged.
When will ADA arrive?
Cardano block times are around 20 seconds — payouts typically follow within several blocks.
- Use a Shelley-era Cardano address compatible with your wallet.
- Check a Cardano explorer with the payout tx hash from your order page.
- Allow a few extra minutes if your wallet is still syncing the latest epoch.
Deposit checklist
Chain mismatches and bad addresses are the usual failure modes — skim these notes before you fund the deposit.

More anonymous no-KYC lanes and chain notes for each coin.
FAQ for this route
Is KYC or a ToSwap account required for DCR → ADA?
No. ToSwap never opens a profile or asks for ID documents on a standard Decred to Cardano order. You stay non-custodial on both legs.
How fast does ADA usually arrive?
Many payouts leave within minutes after the Decred mainnet deposit confirms. Congestion on Decred mainnet or Cardano mainnet can stretch that — fees and mempools set the clock, not a manual review.
Does ToSwap hold my DCR or ADA?
No hosted balance. You broadcast DCR from a wallet you control; ADA is paid only to the address you paste. Nothing sits under a ToSwap username.
What if I send DCR on the wrong network?
Match Decred mainnet exactly as printed on the order badge. A wrong-chain deposit often cannot be credited automatically — double-check before you broadcast.
