ChangeNOW Outperforms Market Benchmarks in Landmark 2026 Speed Report

DUBAI, UAE 

In a rapidly evolving digital asset landscape where transaction velocity has become the primary metric for value preservation, ChangeNOW has emerged as the industry’s efficiency leader. The newly released report, “Speed Benchmarks: Non-Custodial Swaps Comparison 2026” by Swapzone, confirms that ChangeNOW is significantly outperforming industry standards, delivering swaps faster than the market median.

This study builds upon the foundation of Swapzone’s influential mid-2025 report, “Speed First: Non-Custodial Swaps Outlook,” which first identified time-based loss as a critical risk for traders. While the 2025 study established the baseline, the 2026 report reveals a widening gap between top-tier providers and the rest of the market.

According to the data, ChangeNOW has achieved a “sub-2-minute” standard that redefines user expectations. Specifically, in the high-volume USDT-ETH pair, ChangeNOW recorded a median exchange speed of just 1 minute, contrasted against a staggering market median of 45 minutes. Similarly, for SOL-USDT swaps, ChangeNOW maintained a 1-minute execution time, while the broader market averaged 11 minutes.

“At ChangeNOW, we consider speed to be a fundamental pillar of user trust. As we move into 2026, our goal is to eliminate latency as a barrier between traders and their funds, establishing near-instant settlement as the new standard for the entire non-custodial industry,”

stated Pauline Shangett, Chief Strategy Officer at ChangeNOW

By combining these speeds with a market-leading 99.97% Accuracy Rate, ChangeNOW ensures that the value quoted to the user is the value delivered, effectively neutralizing the “hidden tax” of rate deviation.
