## ADA to SOL: moving from Cardano to a Solana wallet

ADA to SOL takes Cardano into native Solana, usually to fund a Phantom or Solflare wallet for Solana apps, where every transaction pays its fee in SOL. You receive SOL itself, not a wrapped or bridged token, at the Solana address you enter, with no account.

The ADA deposit is usually credited within a few minutes, since Cardano blocks arrive about every 20 seconds, and Solana confirms the payout in seconds; most swaps finish in 10 to 25 minutes. Cardano builds transactions from UTXOs and each output must carry a small minimum of ADA, so your wallet may not let you send the very last ADA, especially if it also holds native tokens.

### Tips

- Copy your Solana address from Phantom, Solflare or Trust Wallet. It is 32 to 44 base58 characters with no 0x prefix, nothing like a Cardano addr1 address.
- Send ADA from your own Cardano wallet and use its addr1 address as the refund address, so a refund can come back to you.
- The SOL payout needs no memo or tag, and it shows as your main SOL balance rather than as a separate token.

### Can I swap ADA to SOL without an account?

Yes. GhostSwap needs no account, email or ID for a standard swap. Paste your Solana address, check the floating rate and send the ADA.

### Can I swap ADA that is delegated to a stake pool?

Yes. Delegated ADA stays spendable, so there is nothing to undelegate. Staking rewards are held separately; to include them, withdraw them to your wallet first. Since the Plomin hard fork in January 2025, a reward withdrawal needs your stake key delegated to a DRep or to the Always Abstain or Always No Confidence option, which your wallet can set.

## FAQ

### How long does it take to swap ADA to SOL on GhostSwap?

Most ADA to SOL swaps finish in 10–25 minutes. Your ADA deposit needs a few minutes (blocks about every 20 seconds) to confirm on Cardano; after that the SOL is sent to your wallet and Solana confirms it in under a minute. Busy networks can add a few minutes.

### How much SOL do I get for 10,000 ADA?

At 2 Oct 2026, 14:22 UTC, 10,000 ADA swapped to about 20.6155 SOL on GhostSwap, after the service fee and the SOL network fee. The rate floats with the market, so the exchange box shows the exact live amount before you send.

### What are the fees for converting Cardano to Solana?

The GhostSwap fee is already included in the rate in the exchange box, so the SOL amount you see is what you receive. On top of that, the Cardano network fee for your deposit is paid in ADA by your wallet.

### What wallet should I use to receive SOL?

To receive Solana from your swap, we recommend using Phantom, Solflare, or Trust Wallet. Make sure your wallet supports the Solana network before starting the exchange. Double-check your SOL address before confirming — cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### What format is the SOL address?

Use a Solana address: it is 32–44 letters and numbers with no 0x prefix. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand.

### Can I track my ADA to SOL swap?

Yes. After initiating your swap, GhostSwap provides a transaction status page where you can monitor progress in real-time. You can also track your ADA payment on CardanoScan (https://cardanoscan.io) and your incoming SOL on Solana Explorer (https://explorer.solana.com).

### Is it safe to exchange ADA for SOL on GhostSwap?

GhostSwap is non-custodial: there is no account balance holding your coins. Your ADA deposit is converted and the SOL is sent straight to the Solana address you enter, so check that address twice — Solana transfers cannot be reversed.

### How does a cross-chain ADA to SOL swap work?

Cardano lives on Cardano and Solana on Solana, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your ADA on Cardano and pays native SOL on Solana, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees.

### What happens if my ADA to SOL exchange fails?

If a swap cannot be completed, the ADA is refunded to the Cardano address you entered as the sender address. If something looks stuck, contact support with your swap ID from the status page. Most problems come from sending a different amount than shown or using an address on the wrong network.
