Swapping USD Coin for Dash: what you need to know
If you hold USDC TRC20 and want Dash, you don’t need an exchange account. At ROVEN exchange the swap takes a few minutes: you see the final amount in advance, and an operator checks every order by hand.
USDC TRC20 is the Tron version of the USDC stablecoin; since 2024 Circle no longer issues new tokens on this network. Dash (DASH) is “digital cash” with masternodes and instant InstantSend payment locking.
Why swap USDC TRC20 for DASH
A stablecoin is a handy way to hold dollars, but to benefit from market growth or use the Dash network you need DASH itself. Dash was built for fast, cheap transfers, which makes it handy for payments.
Networks and addresses
| You send USDC TRC20 | You receive DASH | |
|---|---|---|
| Network | Tron (TRC20) | Dash |
| Address | “T” + 33 characters | “X…” or “7…” |
| Network speed | a block comes every 3 seconds | InstantSend locks a payment within a couple of seconds |
| Memo / tag | Not needed | Not needed |
What to watch out for
- Send USDC on TRC20 specifically and check that it’s Circle’s official contract.
- A Dash address starts with “X”; don’t confuse it with Bitcoin or Litecoin addresses.
- To send USDC your wallet needs some TRX to pay the network fee.
- Send the exact amount from the order and do it within 30 minutes, while the locked rate is valid.
How long the swap takes
Swap speed depends on both networks. On Tron (TRC20), a block comes every 3 seconds; on Dash, InstantSend locks a payment within a couple of seconds. The whole USDC TRC20 to DASH swap usually takes 5 to 30 minutes once your transfer is confirmed.
The current rate is 1 USDC = 0.02164948 DASH and the minimum amount is 20 USDC. Create an order in the form above, and ROVEN exchange will send swap updates by email or Telegram.
