Swapping Hypercore: common questions
How do I swap to Hypercore?
Open Shieldz Swap, pick the coin you have and USDC on Hypercore as the coin you want, then paste a Hypercore address you control. Shieldz shows a quote from each protocol, and you sign the deposit in your own wallet.
Which Hypercore tokens can I swap?
Right now: USDC. The list comes from the router's live catalogue and grows as the protocols add assets.
How long does a swap to or from Hypercore take?
It depends on the route and on confirmations on the chain you send from. The app shows an estimate on every quote.
What does it cost?
Shieldz charges 0.15% on every swap. On top of that you pay the network fee on the chain you send from and the swap protocol's own pricing, which is already included in the quote. Wallet swap features typically charge 0.25% to 1%.
Which wallets can I use with Hypercore?
Shieldz can't pay from a Hypercore wallet yet, but you can swap into Hypercore from any supported wallet by pasting a Hypercore address you control.
Is it safe? Do I need an account?
There is no account and no sign-up. Shieldz never holds your funds or keys: you sign every swap in your own wallet, and the protocol sends the result straight to your address.
