XMR to ETH: Swap Monero for Ethereum With No KYC
Select XMR and ETH, paste the 0x Ethereum mainnet address that should get the ETH plus a Monero address of yours for refunds, and send the XMR from a fully synced wallet to the one-time deposit address. ETH is released when the XMR deposit is 10 blocks deep, about 20 minutes, and at no step do you register or show ID.

How do I exchange XMR to ETH?
Pick XMR and ETH
Pick XMR in “You send” and ETH in “You get”, then enter the amount. The box shows how much ETH you get after all fees, and the minimum for this pair.
Paste your Ethereum address
Paste the Ethereum address that should receive the ETH: it starts with 0x followed by 40 hexadecimal characters. Wallets that work: MetaMask, Rabby or a Ledger. Then enter the Monero address you send XMR from; a refund, if ever needed, goes there.
Send XMR on Monero
Send exactly the amount shown from your own Monero wallet to the one-time deposit address, on the Monero network.
Receive ETH
Your ETH is paid out once your XMR deposit confirms, and Ethereum then confirms it in about 2–5 minutes. Most swaps finish within minutes. The exact time depends on how fast each network confirms your deposit. Follow each step on the status page with your swap ID.
Preparing the Monero payment
Open Feather, Cake Wallet or Monero GUI and let it catch up with the chain before you do anything else. A wallet that is still scanning may count outputs that are already spent or miss recent ones, and a transfer built on that picture can fail to broadcast. When the sync bar is finished, create the payment to the deposit address for the exact XMR amount in the box.
Your wallet adds the Monero network fee in XMR. It is small, but it means you cannot send your entire balance to the swap; leave a little behind. Normal priority is enough. If the wallet says some of your balance is locked, that is change or a recent incoming payment still inside its 10-block wait, and it frees itself after about 20 minutes.
For the refund field, paste a subaddress from the same wallet. Monero transactions do not reveal a sender, so this is the only way the swap knows where to return coins.
The 10 confirmations on the XMR deposit
Monero produces a block about every two minutes. The swap waits until your deposit is 10 blocks deep, roughly 20 minutes, before it treats the XMR as final, which protects both sides from a chain reorganisation removing the payment. The status page shows the count rising.
Nothing on your side shortens this wait, and it is the slowest stage of the whole pair. Sending the XMR again does not help; it creates a second deposit. Once the tenth confirmation is in, most swaps finish within minutes, and Ethereum includes the ETH payout in a block within about 2 to 5 minutes.
The Ethereum gas for that payout is already covered in the quote. The ETH figure the box shows is what your 0x address receives, and you can watch the transaction on Etherscan with the hash from the status page.
Receiving on Ethereum mainnet, not a layer-2
What you get is mainnet ETH itself. The address starts with 0x and has 40 hexadecimal characters after it, from a wallet such as MetaMask, Rabby or a Ledger. The same 0x string also exists on Arbitrum, Optimism, Base and BNB Smart Chain, so the address field cannot tell which network you meant. The ETH always arrives on mainnet.
| You want | Use |
|---|---|
| ETH on Ethereum mainnet | This page |
| ETH on Base | XMR to ETH (Base) |
| ETH on Arbitrum or another layer-2 | That network's own pair, if the box lists it |
| A stablecoin on Ethereum | XMR to USDT ERC20 |
If your wallet shows nothing after the payout, check that it is switched to Ethereum Mainnet. What is a layer-2? explains why these networks keep separate balances.
Using the ETH once it arrives
Native ETH pays for gas, so the payout is immediately usable: you can send it, swap it for tokens or connect the wallet to an app without needing another coin first. That is a practical advantage over receiving an ERC-20 token, which would leave you unable to move it until you also held some ETH.
Remember what changes when coins leave Monero. Every Ethereum balance and transaction is public, and anyone with your 0x address can read its full history on Etherscan. Receiving to an address you have never used, in a wallet with no ENS name and no exchange withdrawals in its past, keeps this ETH from being tied to your other activity. Interacting with apps from that address adds to its public record, so decide in advance which address does what.
If the swap cannot go ahead
A refund on this pair is a Monero payment back to you. If a swap cannot be completed, the coins are refunded to the sender address you entered, which here is the Monero address in the refund field. A subaddress from your own wallet is the right choice. An exchange deposit address is not, because the exchange may not recognise a transfer it did not expect.
The swap ID links to a status page with each stage. If the deposit has its 10 confirmations and the status still has not changed after an unusually long time, message support@ghostswap.io with the swap ID, adding the transaction ID listed in your Monero wallet's history. A refunded XMR payment is also subject to the 10-block lock before you can spend it again.
Why people swap Monero into Ethereum
Monero is built for private payments and has no smart contracts. Anything that needs Ethereum, such as DeFi apps, NFTs, token launches or paying a contributor who wants ETH, needs real ETH. Swapping XMR you already hold is the most direct way to get it without an exchange account.
There is no bridge for this, and no wrapped XMR on Ethereum, because Monero cannot verify or lock assets for another chain. A swap moves value instead: XMR is paid on one chain and ETH is paid on the other. Some people also swap to take profit or to hold a coin with wider app support for a while. When you want privacy again, ETH to XMR brings the funds back into Monero.
Common mistakes with XMR to ETH
- Sending XMR before the wallet has finished syncing, so the transfer is built from an outdated balance.
- Trying to send the whole balance and leaving nothing for the Monero network fee.
- Pasting a 0x address you only use on a layer-2 and expecting the ETH to appear there.
- Repeating the XMR payment because the status page still shows fewer than 10 confirmations.
- Receiving the ETH at an address already linked to your name through an exchange or an ENS record.
