You send from your own wallet straight to the exchanger — nothing to connect, no account, and you stay on this page throughout. Rates are indicative until a swap is opened.

The swap is carried out by an independent exchanger and the deposit address above is theirs. dgnx.finance never holds, receives or controls your funds, has no key to that address, and earns a referral commission. Opening a swap sends your receiving address, IP, browser and timezone to the exchanger for their compliance checks; we store none of it. Check their terms, fees and country restrictions before sending anything.

How to time a swap so your deposit arrives before the rate expires

Send the deposit transaction as soon as the rate is locked, not after. The clock starts ticking the moment the exchange quotes you a fixed rate, and most providers give you a window measured in minutes - often between 10 and 30. If your deposit arrives after that window closes, t

Checking swap addresses before you send

Every crypto swap works the same way. You send one asset to an address the provider gives you. The provider receives it, converts it, and sends the result to a wallet you control. The process sounds simple. The difference between a successful trade and a stranded deposit often co

My swap was marked complete but I never received the coins

The most likely explanation is that the swap never happened on the chain you think it did. The exchanger’s interface marked the order complete after it broadcast a transaction, but the coins you expected were sent to an address you do not control.

How to convert crypto: on-chain vs off-chain

Off-chain (on an exchange)

Your trade happens inside the exchange's own ledger. Nothing touches the blockchain until you withdraw.

  • Cheapest and fastest for common pairs
  • Needs an account and usually ID verification
  • The exchange holds the coins until you withdraw them
  • Best for converting to and from cash

On-chain (a DEX or swap)

You swap from your own wallet. The transaction settles on the chain and you pay its fee.

  • No account, no custodian — you keep the keys
  • You pay network fees, which vary a lot by chain
  • Small or new tokens often only trade here
  • Slippage and thin liquidity are real costs on low-volume pairs
Before any on-chain swap: check the token's contract address against a block explorer, start with a small test amount, and review what you are approving — an unlimited token approval to an unknown contract is how most wallet drains actually happen.
