Networks and wallets for BTC to DOT
Bitcoin mainnet
Select an on-chain Bitcoin withdrawal when the provider quotes Bitcoin mainnet. Lightning invoices and wrapped BTC on other chains require separate routes.
Polkadot Hub (Asset Hub, native DOT)
For a Hub payout, select Polkadot Hub or Asset Hub in your wallet or exchange. Check its minimum credit and, for a new self-custody account, the chain’s minimum balance for keeping the account active.
Check BTC deposit and DOT payout availability separately. The live service needs to accept your source network and offer the destination network that your DOT wallet expects.
How to convert BTC to DOT
- Enter the BTC amount to see the estimated DOT payout.
- Enter a receiving address on Polkadot Hub mainnet · native DOT and a refund address on Bitcoin mainnet. Check any destination tag your wallet requires.
- When the route accepts orders, review the exact amounts and follow the deposit instructions. Submit the BTC transaction ID and use your private order link to track the DOT payout.
How to compare BTC to DOT rates
For a rough pre-fee estimate, multiply the BTC amount by the rate expressed in DOT per BTC. Then compare the actual DOT payout for the same BTC amount and network. Check whether the withdrawal fee comes out of what you send or is charged separately.
Swap Crypto has a $100 minimum. Estimates use market prices before fees. The order page shows the exact send and receive amounts, and your wallet may charge a separate network fee for sending the deposit.
