You can easily convert your Celo stablecoin for CELO by going to the CELO section and buying or selling one of these assets.
Currently, it is not possible to convert directly between Celo stablecoins on Valora. You will have to buy CELO with the asset you have, and then sell CELO for the asset you want.
Valora uses Celo’s onchain exchange, called Mento, to make the exchange. Mento is an Automated Money Market (AMM). Like other AMMs, Mento calculates the price based on the volume you are looking to exchange. There are NO hidden fees!! You can read more about how Mento works in Celo's documentation.
