Exchange DAI to NEAR

DAI is available on Ethereum, BNB Smart Chain, Polygon, Arbitrum, and Optimism. NEAR is available on the NEAR blockchain and BNB Smart Chain. Select the network where your DAI is located for sending, and choose your preferred NEAR receive network—they do not need to match, but BNB Smart Chain is a common crossover if you're moving between chains.

DAI is a stablecoin useful for holding or transferring value without price volatility, while NEAR is a utility token for the NEAR blockchain. Users often exchange DAI for NEAR to stake on the NEAR network, pay for transactions, or participate in dApps within the ecosystem.

Confirm your NEAR receiving address is correct and belongs to you—funds sent to a wrong address cannot be recovered. Check that your DAI send network matches your actual holdings, and verify the NEAR receive network is one you can access with your wallet. The swap rates are shown before you confirm, so review them for any change if you've been preparing the transaction for a while.

Most users pick a fixed rate for this route: it locks the amount of NEAR you receive when you create the order, so price movement while your DAI deposit confirms does not change the payout. A floating rate follows the market and can pay slightly more or less at execution time. You can choose either in the swap form before confirming.

Timing depends on how quickly your DAI deposit confirms on-chain, exchange processing, and NEAR network conditions. Congestion on either network can extend the wait, and the order page tracks each step while your swap runs.

No signup is required for standard swaps. Zest is non-custodial — you send DAI from your own wallet and receive NEAR at an address you control, with the rate shown before you confirm.
