## How do I exchange ETH Base to XMR?

1. **Pick ETH Base and XMR.** Pick ETH Base in “You send” and XMR in “You get”, then enter the amount. The box shows how much XMR you get after all fees, and the minimum for this pair.
2. **Paste your Monero address.** Paste the Monero address that should receive the XMR: it is 95 characters and starts with 4 (standard) or 8 (subaddress). Wallets that work: Feather, Cake Wallet or Monero GUI. Then enter the Base address you send ETH Base from; a refund, if ever needed, goes there.
3. **Send ETH Base on Base.** Send exactly the amount shown from your own Base wallet to the one-time deposit address, on the Base network.
4. **Receive XMR.** Your XMR is usually paid out 5–15 minutes after you send your ETH Base, and Monero then confirms it in about 20 minutes (10 confirmations). Follow each step on the status page with your swap ID.

## Common mistakes with ETH Base to XMR

- Using the wrong network: ETH Base is on Base. Base, Arbitrum, Polygon and Ethereum share the same 0x address format, so check the network in your wallet before you send or paste an address.
- Sending from an exchange account, so the sender address isn't yours and a refund can't reach you.
- A Monero address typed by hand (it is 95 characters): copy and paste it.

## FAQ

### Can you swap Ethereum (Base) to Monero?

Yes. Pick ETH Base and XMR in the box above, paste your Monero address and send the ETH Base; the XMR goes straight to your wallet in about 5 to 15 minutes, with no account.

### Where can I exchange ETH Base for XMR?

On a no-account swap service like GhostSwap, or on the few exchanges that still list Monero in your country. A swap needs no sign-up: you send ETH Base and receive XMR at the rate shown before you send.

### Can I convert Ethereum (Base) to Monero anonymously?

GhostSwap asks for no account, email or ID. Your ETH Base deposit is still visible on the Base blockchain; the XMR you receive is private by default, and no account ties the two together.

### Is XMR illegal in the USA?

No. No US law bans owning or swapping Monero. Some exchanges have stopped listing it, which is a business choice, not a ban; you are responsible for the rules where you live.

### Why is XMR being delisted?

Some exchanges drop privacy coins because their local rules make listing them hard; Binance delisted XMR in February 2024, for example. Our [Monero delistings tracker](/monero-delistings/) lists each one with its date and source.

### How long does it take to swap ETH Base to XMR on GhostSwap?

Most ETH Base to XMR swaps are paid out within 5–15 minutes: the ETH Base deposit needs about a minute to confirm on Base, then the XMR is sent to your wallet, and Monero confirms the payout in about 20 minutes (10 confirmations). Busy networks can add a few minutes.

### How much is 1 ETH Base in XMR?

At 21 Oct 2026, 22:04 UTC, 1 ETH Base swapped to about 3.9435 XMR on GhostSwap, after the service fee. The minimum for this pair is about 0.012 ETH Base. The rate floats with the market until your ETH Base deposit confirms, so the exchange box shows the exact amount before you send.

### What are the fees for converting Ethereum (Base) to Monero?

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

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

To receive Monero from your swap, we recommend using Feather, Cake Wallet or Monero GUI. MetaMask and other Ethereum wallets do not support Monero. Make sure your wallet supports the Monero network before starting the exchange. Double-check your XMR address before confirming, cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### What format is the XMR address?

Use a Monero address: it is 95 characters and starts with 4 (standard) or 8 (subaddress). Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand.
