Tunnel in 3 steps
-
Choose how much DOGE to send and paste the Cardano address that should receive funds on Cardano mainnet.
-
Open the order to freeze the quote and reveal a one-time deposit destination.
-
Broadcast DOGE to that destination. Once confirmations clear, ADA is pushed to your payout wallet.
Before you broadcast
- Dogecoin typically needs several confirmations before the swap continues.
- Blocks target about one minute — still subject to mempool delays.
- Send DOGE on Dogecoin mainnet only — not BSC or other wrapped variants unless your order says otherwise.
- Still waiting on ADA? Give the wallet a few minutes to sync, then share your Exchange ID with support if the order already lists a payout hash.
Dogecoin — fast, low-fee payments
DOGE started as a meme coin but remains widely used for tips and transfers — quick blocks and low fees on its own mainnet.
Sending DOGE
Use a standard Dogecoin address from your wallet.
Leave enough DOGE for the network fee on top of the swap amount.
Cardano — research-driven layer-1
ADA is the native token of Cardano — a proof-of-stake network focused on security and formal verification.
ADA payout delays
Resync your Cardano wallet if the order shows a sent transaction but balance is unchanged.
When will ADA arrive?
Cardano block times are around 20 seconds — payouts typically follow within several blocks.
- Use a Shelley-era Cardano address compatible with your wallet.
- Check a Cardano explorer with the payout tx hash from your order page.
- Allow a few extra minutes if your wallet is still syncing the latest epoch.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need KYC to swap DOGE for ADA on TunnelSwap?
No. TunnelSwap is an anonymous no-KYC, privacy-first exchange. There is no account, no ID upload, and no standing balance for Dogecoin → Cardano swaps.
How fast is a DOGE → ADA swap?
Most routes settle within minutes. Final timing follows Dogecoin mainnet deposit confirmations and Cardano mainnet payout speed.
Does TunnelSwap hold my DOGE or ADA?
No. You fund the deposit from your wallet and ADA is sent straight to the address you paste — non-custodial, wallet to wallet.
What if I use the wrong network for DOGE?
Only send on the network shown for the order (Dogecoin mainnet). Wrong-chain deposits can be unrecoverable — review the safety guides before you broadcast.
