No email, phone number or ID upload. ### What are the fees for converting Monero to Ethereum?

On top of that, the Monero network fee for your deposit is paid in XMR by your wallet. ### What wallet should I use to receive ETH? To receive Ethereum from your swap, we recommend using MetaMask, Rainbow Wallet, or a hardware wallet like Ledger. Make sure your wallet supports the Ethereum (ERC-20) network before starting the exchange. Double-check your ETH address before confirming — cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed. ### What format is the ETH address? Use a Ethereum address: it starts with 0x followed by 40 hexadecimal characters. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand. ### Can I track my XMR to ETH 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 XMR payment on XMRChain (limited info due to Monero's privacy features) (https://xmrchain.net) and your incoming ETH on Etherscan (https://etherscan.io). ### Is it safe to exchange XMR for ETH on GhostSwap? GhostSwap is non-custodial: there is no account balance holding your coins. Your XMR deposit is converted and the ETH is sent straight to the Ethereum address you enter, so check that address twice — Ethereum transfers cannot be reversed. ### Will my ETH be linked to my XMR? Since Monero is fully private — ring signatures, stealth addresses, and RingCT make every transaction untraceable by default, the source of your funds is already protected. The ETH you receive will appear as a fresh transaction on the Ethereum (ERC-20) blockchain with no visible connection to your XMR holdings. GhostSwap requires no KYC, so there's no account linking the two. ### How does a cross-chain XMR to ETH swap work? Monero lives on Monero and Ethereum on Ethereum, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your XMR on Monero and pays native ETH on Ethereum, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees. ### What happens if my XMR to ETH exchange fails? If a swap cannot be completed, the XMR is refunded to the Monero 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. ## Related - [Reverse: ETH to XMR](https://ghostswap.io/exchange/eth-xmr/) - [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)
