Paste the CRO address that should receive the coins (and a Payment ID only if that address needs one). 3. Enter the DRIFT address you are sending from, then confirm. 4. Send the DRIFT to the one-time deposit address shown. 5. Receive CRO in your wallet and follow the status page with your swap ID. ## Selling DRIFT for native CRO on Cronos POS This pair swaps DRIFT, the governance token of Drift, a perpetual futures platform on Solana, into CRO, the coin of the Cronos ecosystem linked to Crypto.com. The payout is native CRO on Cronos POS Chain, the Cosmos SDK chain where holders stake CRO with validators, so the receive address starts with cro1. No account is needed. The DRIFT deposit is credited on Solana in under a minute, and Cronos POS blocks follow each other within seconds, so most swaps take 5 to 15 minutes. The two sides share no address format: Solana uses base58 strings and Cronos POS uses cro1 addresses. A 0x address from MetaMask, the Cronos EVM chain or Ethereum belongs to a different network and is rejected for this payout. ### Tips - Copy a cro1 address from Keplr set to Cronos POS, or from a Ledger. Leave the Payment ID empty for your own wallet, and fill it only for an exchange address that came with a memo. - Send DRIFT (mint DriFtupJYLTosbwoN8koMbEYSx54aFAVLddWsbksjwg7) from your own Phantom or Solflare wallet with a little SOL for the fee, and enter that Solana address as the refund address. Drift's DFX recovery token is a separate SPL token and does not count as DRIFT. - CRO pays its own fees on Cronos POS, so a new cro1 wallet can move or delegate the payout without a top-up. ### Can I swap DRIFT for CRO without KYC? Yes. Standard swaps need no account, email or ID. Enter your cro1 address, add a Payment ID only for an exchange account, check the floating rate and send the DRIFT. ### What happens if I leave out an exchange's Payment ID? The CRO still reaches the cro1 address, but the exchange may not be able to match it to your account, and you would have to ask its support to credit it. Your own Keplr or Ledger address needs no Payment ID. ## FAQ ### How long does it take to swap DRIFT to CRO on GhostSwap? When you exchange Drift to Cronos on GhostSwap, the process typically takes under a minute on Solana for your DRIFT to confirm on the Solana (SPL token) network. Once confirmed, your Cronos is sent to your wallet and arrives within a few minutes on Cronos. Most DRIFT to CRO swaps are paid out within 5–15 minutes after you send; network congestion can occasionally add time, and the status page shows each step. ### What are the fees for converting Drift to Cronos? GhostSwap charges a small service fee that's already included in the exchange rate you see — there are no hidden fees. On top of that, Solana fees are usually a fraction of a cent, paid in SOL. The swap box shows the estimated amount of CRO after fees before you send. The rate floats, so the final amount can differ slightly if the market moves before your deposit confirms. ### What wallet should I use to receive CRO? To receive Cronos from your swap, we recommend using Crypto.com DeFi Wallet or Trust Wallet. Make sure your wallet supports the Cronos network before starting the exchange. Double-check your CRO address before confirming — cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed. ### Can I track my DRIFT to CRO 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 DRIFT payment on Solscan (https://solscan.io) and your incoming CRO on the Cronos explorer. ### Is it safe to exchange DRIFT for CRO on GhostSwap? Yes. GhostSwap is a non-custodial exchange, which means we never hold your funds or private keys. Your Drift is converted and sent directly to your Cronos wallet address. Standard swaps need no account, email or ID, and all swaps run over encrypted connections. ### How does a cross-chain DRIFT to CRO swap work? Drift runs on the Solana (SPL token) network while Cronos runs on the Cronos network — they can't be sent directly to each other. GhostSwap handles the cross-chain conversion for you: you send DRIFT to our temporary deposit address, we convert it, and send the equivalent CRO to your wallet. No bridge protocols or technical knowledge required. ### What happens if my DRIFT to CRO exchange fails? In the rare case of a failed exchange, your DRIFT is refunded to the address you entered as the sender address. If something looks stuck, contact support with your swap ID from the status page. Most problems are caused by sending a different amount than shown or using an address on the wrong network. ## Related - [Reverse: CRO to DRIFT](https://ghostswap.io/exchange/cro-drift/) ([Markdown](https://ghostswap.io/exchange/cro-drift.md)) - [All GhostSwap pairs](https://ghostswap.io/exchange/) - [How to exchange](https://ghostswap.io/how-to-exchange/) - [Site guide for AI assistants](https://ghostswap.io/llms.txt)
