USDC ERC20 → DOT: swap details at ROVEN exchange

What to watch out for
- Send USDC on Ethereum, not Base, Polygon or Solana — those are different versions of the token.
- A new Polkadot address must receive at least 1 DOT, the account’s minimum balance.
- To send USDC your wallet needs some ETH to pay the network fee.
- The rate is locked for 30 minutes: send USDC within that time and you’ll receive exactly the amount shown in the order.
