Networks and wallets for DOT to LDO
Polkadot Hub (Asset Hub, native DOT)
Check the chain named in the deposit instructions. Native DOT on Polkadot Hub, also called Asset Hub, is held on a different chain from DOT on the Relay Chain, even if the address looks the same.
Ethereum mainnet (ERC-20 LDO)
Check for LDO under the Ethereum mainnet contract in your wallet. Receiving LDO gives you a governance token. An ETH staking balance uses a separate asset.
Check DOT deposit and LDO payout availability separately. The live service needs to accept your source network and offer the destination network that your LDO wallet expects.
How to convert DOT to LDO

- Enter a receiving address on Ethereum mainnet · ERC-20 LDO and a refund address on Polkadot Hub mainnet · native DOT. Check any destination tag your wallet requires.
- When the route accepts orders, review the exact amounts and follow the deposit instructions. Submit the DOT transaction ID and use your private order link to track the LDO payout.
How to compare DOT to LDO rates
For a rough pre-fee estimate, multiply the DOT amount by the rate expressed in LDO per DOT. Then compare the actual LDO payout for the same DOT 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.
