Swap Page

Swapping tokens on Alcor and what the swap settings do.

The swap page is at alcor.exchange/v/<chain>/swap, where <chain> is wax, xpr, vaulta (EOS) or telos.

Making a swap

  1. Connect your wallet.
  2. Pick the token to sell in Sell and the token to get in Buy, then enter an amount in either field. If you type in Buy, the swap is calculated for that exact output.
  3. Check the quote: Expected Output, Price Impact and Min. Received (the least you will get at your slippage setting).
  4. Confirm and sign the transaction in your wallet. The swap executes in that transaction.

Alcor finds the route for you. A swap can pass through several Alcor Swap pools, and part of it can be filled on Alcor's order book markets.

Swap settings

The settings menu on the swap card holds:

  • Slippage %: how far the result may fall below the quote before the transaction fails. Choose Auto, 0.5%, 1% or type your own value.
  • Max Hops: the most pools a route may pass through (1, 2 or 3).
  • Recalculate On Price Change: refresh the quote when the pools on the route change.
  • Split Into Order Book: allow part of the swap to be filled on order book markets.
