Swapping Polygon for Dash: what you need to know
Exchanging POL for DASH is useful when you rebalance a portfolio or want to move from one network to another without buying stablecoins in between. At ROVEN exchange the coins are swapped directly, and the rate is locked when you create the order.
POL (formerly MATIC) is the coin of Polygon PoS, an Ethereum-compatible network with fees in cents. Dash (DASH) is “digital cash” with masternodes and instant InstantSend payment locking.
Why swap POL for DASH
Shifting between POL and DASH is a normal part of managing a portfolio: you change your exposure without cashing out to fiat. Dash was built for fast, cheap transfers, which makes it handy for payments.
Networks and addresses
| You send POL | You receive DASH | |
|---|---|---|
| Network | Polygon PoS | Dash |
| Address | “0x” + 40 characters | “X…” or “7…” |
| Network speed | a block comes every 2 seconds | InstantSend locks a payment within a couple of seconds |
| Memo / tag | Not needed | Not needed |
What to watch out for
- Send POL on Polygon, not POL as an ERC20 token on Ethereum.
- A Dash address starts with “X”; don’t confuse it with Bitcoin or Litecoin addresses.
- The rate is locked for 30 minutes: send POL within that time and you’ll receive exactly the amount shown in the order.
How long the swap takes
Swap speed depends on both networks. On Polygon PoS, a block comes every 2 seconds; on Dash, InstantSend locks a payment within a couple of seconds. The whole POL to DASH swap usually takes 5 to 30 minutes once your transfer is confirmed.
