HOW TO USE

  1. 1

    The live DOT price loads automatically — no action needed when the page opens.

  2. 2

    Enter a DOT amount — the default is 100 DOT. Adjust to match your actual holding.

  3. 3

    Or enter a USD amount to see how much DOT it buys at the current price.

  4. 4

    Both fields update each other in real time — the converter is fully bidirectional.

  5. 5

    The staking panel estimates your annual DOT rewards at ~15% APY and their USD value, plus reminds you of the 28-day unbonding period before staked DOT can be sold.

  6. 6

    The price auto-refreshes every 30 seconds. Click Refresh for an immediate update.

WORKED EXAMPLE

Example: At a live DOT price of $8.00, entering 100 DOT gives $800.00 USD. Entering $500 gives 62.5000 DOT. Staking estimate: 100 DOT × 15% APY = 15 DOT per year = $120 in staking rewards at $8.00 per DOT. Note: to sell staked DOT, you must initiate unbonding and wait 28 days. For the what-if table: $1,000 invested in August 2020 at $2.90 bought 344.83 DOT, worth $2,759 today at $8.00 — a gain of $1,759 or +176%. Invested at the $55 ATH, the same $1,000 bought 18.18 DOT, worth $145 today — a loss of $855 or −85%.
