SOL to ONDO: Swap Solana to ERC-20 Ondo, No KYC

ONDO is the token used to vote in the Ondo DAO. GhostSwap lists it only as an ERC-20 token on Ethereum, so this pair always pays out on Ethereum. Your SOL leaves Solana, and the ONDO shows up on a different chain, with no bridge to run and no wrapped token in between.

That means you need an Ethereum address next to your Solana one. That address begins with 0x and has 40 hexadecimal characters after it. Phantom can show an Ethereum address as well as a Solana one, and MetaMask, Rabby or a Ledger work just as well.

Your Solana address, which is 32 to 44 letters and numbers with no 0x in front, cannot receive this token. If you paste it as the payout address, the box will not accept it as an Ethereum address. Check which account you copied before you confirm the swap.

Send native SOL, the coin shown as the main balance in Phantom or Solflare. Wrapped SOL, often labelled wSOL, is an SPL token and not the same thing. Unwrap it in your wallet first if that is what you hold.

Leave a little SOL behind when you type the amount. Solana charges its transaction fee in SOL, and a wallet with an empty balance after the transfer may refuse to sign it. The fee is small, but it has to come from the same account.

Enter the Solana address you send from as the sender address. An exchange account withdraws from its own addresses, so a refund there might not reach you. Solana confirms the deposit in under a minute, and you can follow it on Solscan with the transaction signature from your wallet.

Receiving ONDO costs you nothing, because the payout transaction is sent for you. Moving it afterwards is where a fee comes in. Every ERC-20 transfer on Ethereum pays gas in ETH, and SOL cannot pay Ethereum gas.

So if you plan to move, stake or swap the ONDO later, put a little ETH on the same 0x address first. A small SOL to ETH swap is one way to get it there. Ethereum gas goes up and down with network traffic, and is usually higher than the fee you just paid on Solana. The gas fee guide explains how to send at quieter times.

Holding the token needs no ETH at all. The ONDO simply sits at your address until you decide to use it.

Both SOL and ONDO float against the dollar, so the quote reflects two prices moving at once. The exchange box shows how much ONDO you receive after fees, priced from aggregated liquidity from leading crypto markets. The rate floats with the market until your SOL deposit confirms, and the box shows this pair's minimum and maximum before you send.

Timing splits into two legs. Your SOL reaches finality on Solana in less than a minute. Ethereum then confirms the ONDO payout in about 2 to 5 minutes. Most swaps finish within minutes once the deposit confirms.

The status page shows each stage: deposit seen, deposit confirmed, ONDO sent. No account, email or ID is involved at any point, only the two addresses you entered.

To see the payout, search your 0x address on Etherscan and open its token transfers. Some wallets hide new tokens until you add them; if the ONDO does not appear in MetaMask, import it from the token page Etherscan links to. Tokens with similar names on Solana are different assets and will not appear here.

If a swap cannot be completed, the coins are refunded to the sender address you entered. That is your Solana address, so keep it as one you control and can open again later.

If Solscan shows the SOL as confirmed and the status page has not moved for a long while, write to support@ghostswap.io with the swap ID and the transaction signature. Do not send SOL to the same deposit address a second time. Each swap has its own one-time address, and a repeat transfer does not start a new swap.

For the opposite direction there is ONDO to SOL. On that route the ONDO leaves an Ethereum wallet, so you need ETH for gas on the sending side instead.
