SwapZilla verdict

ChangeHero is a dependable middle-of-the-road pick. It quotes both a fixed and a floating rate, settles in about twenty minutes and asks nothing of you up front. Its coin list is shorter than the widest providers, so it tends to win individual pairs rather than whole menus — which is exactly how SwapZilla uses it.

Frequently asked questions

Is ChangeHero safe?
ChangeHero has operated since 2018 and runs standard swaps non-custodially, so your coins are not held on the platform between the deposit and the payout. As always, check the payout address before you send.
Does ChangeHero require KYC?
Not for ordinary crypto-to-crypto swaps. Like every provider SwapZilla routes through, ChangeHero keeps an AML policy and can ask for verification on a flagged transaction.
What is the difference between a fixed and a floating rate?
A floating rate follows the market until your deposit confirms, so the final amount can move up or down. A fixed rate locks the amount when you create the order, at the cost of a slightly wider spread. ChangeHero offers both and SwapZilla shows whichever applies to the offer you pick.
