Select the send and receive networks in the widget. Each must match the corresponding wallet or withdrawal platform. Availability can change and may differ between fixed and floating rates; the current quote determines whether your selection is supported.
Enter your amount to check the current rate, minimum, maximum (if any) and estimated receive amount. Compare what you receive, not just the headline rate. Your sending wallet may charge a separate network fee. Floating quotes can change; fixed quotes have an expiry and deposit conditions.
Save your order link. Send the requested asset and amount to the deposit address on the specified network, following the order deadline. A confirmed deposit still needs exchange processing and an outgoing transfer; completion time is not guaranteed.
Check the order status and your transaction in the network explorer. If the order expires, the amount is wrong or processing stalls, contact support with the order ID and transaction hash before sending more funds. Recovery or a refund depends on the case.
Contact exchange supportBoth USDC and Dai are stablecoins pegged to the US dollar, but they operate on different blockchain networks and serve distinct roles in decentralized finance. Users swap USDC to Dai to access Dai's role in lending protocols and yield farms, or to consolidate holdings into Dai for specific smart contract interactions. Since both assets trade on Ethereum, Polygon, Arbitrum, Optimism, and BNB Smart Chain, matching your send and receive network ensures efficient settlement and keeps fees predictable.
Open the exchange widget and select USDC as the send currency and DAI as the receive currency. The widget shows the live rate and the minimum amount for this pair.
Enter the amount of USDC you want to exchange and choose a fixed or floating rate.
Paste your DAI wallet address into the recipient field and double-check it. Select the network your wallet supports -- the receive network must match where your address lives.
Create the order, save its link and send USDC to the deposit address using the network, amount and deadline shown. Receiving DAI requires deposit confirmation, exchange processing and the outgoing transfer.
Before you swap, choose the network you're sending USDC from and confirm that Dai is available on the same network — Ethereum, Polygon, Arbitrum, Optimism, and BNB Smart Chain support both. If you're sending USDC from the Algorand network, include the required extra identifier; Dai does not trade on Algorand, so you'll need to select a different network for receipt. Check your sending wallet's network setting and your receiving address format to match the chosen network exactly. Network selection affects settlement speed and fees, so verify both before confirming the swap. Once you submit, you'll see the exchange rate locked in — review the final amount and destination address one last time.
