DEX and exchanges side by side

Swap via a DEX or an exchange

The same calculator as on the home page, with non-custodial DEX routes listed next to the exchanges. DEX offers are marked: no account, no KYC, nobody holds your funds.

• For offers marked DEX
• Fill in the refund address The calculator marks that field optional, but a DEX route cannot be created without it: if the swap fails, this is the only place the funds can go back to.
• The rate floats A DEX offer settles at execution time. There is no counterparty to guarantee it — there is a blockchain.
• The deposit is final A transaction sent on a DEX route cannot be recalled. Check the network and the address before you send.

The same list is available over the API: pass dex=include to /v1/quotes (or dex=only for DEX alone). DEX offers carry IsDEX. See the reference.
