What to know about Polkadot and Ethereum Classic

Polkadot (DOT)

Polkadot (DOT) is a multichain network founded by Gavin Wood, co-founder of Ethereum. Its main network launched in 2020.

Sending and receiving DOT

Polkadot addresses usually start with 1. Every account must keep a minimum balance (existential deposit); if the balance falls below it, the account can be removed. Transfers confirm quickly with low fees.

Ethereum Classic (ETC)

Ethereum Classic (ETC) is the original Ethereum chain that continued unchanged after the 2016 split, when most of the community moved to a new chain to reverse the DAO hack.

How Ethereum Classic works

ETC remains on Proof of Work (Etchash) and follows a fixed monetary policy: the block reward is reduced by 20% every 5 million blocks, which limits the total supply. It runs the same kind of smart contracts as Ethereum.

How to exchange Polkadot to Ethereum Classic

  1. Enter the DOT amount in the calculator (minimum 4,400 DOT) and click “Go to exchange”.
  2. Enter your ETC wallet address on the Ethereum Classic network and your contact details.
  3. Send exactly the specified amount of DOT on the Polkadot network to the details shown in the order.
  4. Once the transfer is confirmed, Ethereum Classic is sent to your address. You can track the order on its status page.

Exchange DOT to ETC

What to check before exchanging DOT to ETC

  • The recipient address must be on the Ethereum Classic network: funds sent on another network may be lost.
  • The amount sent must be at least 4,400 DOT.
  • Copy the whole address and check the first and last characters after pasting.
  • Funds go through an AML check; high-risk transfers may be held until the check is complete.
