1. Open https://ghostswap.io/exchange/xmr-sol/ and enter the amount of XMR to send.
2. Paste the SOL address that should receive the coins.
3. Enter the XMR address you are sending from, then confirm.
4. Send the XMR to the one-time deposit address shown.
5. Receive SOL in your wallet and follow the status page with your swap ID.

## Getting native SOL for a Solana wallet from Monero

XMR to SOL is for Monero holders who need native SOL, for example to pay transaction fees, trade on Solana apps or fund a new wallet that has no history yet. Solana is fast and cheap, but every account balance, token holding and swap on it is public and indexed by explorers such as Solscan. The SOL is sent to whichever Solana address you paste, and GhostSwap asks for no account or ID.

Most of the wait is the Monero deposit, which needs about 10 confirmations, roughly 20 minutes. Solana confirms the payout in under a minute, so most swaps finish in 20 to 60 minutes. Because every Solana transaction pays its fee in SOL, this payout also gives a fresh wallet what it needs to start using tokens and apps.

### Tips

- Copy the Solana address from Phantom, Solflare or a Ledger: 32 to 44 letters and numbers, no 0x prefix. Phantom also holds addresses for other chains such as Ethereum and Bitcoin, so make sure you copy the Solana one.
- Want a stablecoin rather than SOL? USDT on Solana is a separate receive coin in the exchange box, so there is no need to buy SOL and swap again.
- Native SOL needs no token account or memo: it lands in the main balance of the address you paste. For refunds, enter a Monero address of your own.

### Can I buy SOL with Monero without KYC?

Yes. You do not create an account or give an email or ID for a standard swap. The exchange box shows the floating rate first; after you send the XMR, the SOL arrives at your Solana address as a normal transfer.

### Is the SOL I receive wrapped or bridged?

No. It is native SOL on the Solana network, the same coin wallets use to pay fees, not wrapped SOL (wSOL) and not a bridged token. A BEP-20 version of SOL on BNB Smart Chain is also in the exchange box, but it is a different coin paid to 0x addresses.

## FAQ

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

Most XMR to SOL swaps finish in 20–60 minutes. Your XMR deposit needs about 20 minutes (10 confirmations) to confirm on Monero; after that the SOL is sent to your wallet and Solana confirms it in under a minute. Busy networks can add a few minutes.

### How much SOL do I get for 5 XMR?

At 2 Oct 2026, 14:49 UTC, 5 XMR swapped to about 22.0773 SOL on GhostSwap, after the service fee and the SOL network fee. The rate floats with the market, so the exchange box shows the exact live amount before you send.

### What are the fees for converting Monero to Solana?

The GhostSwap fee is already included in the rate in the exchange box, so the SOL amount you see is what you receive. 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 SOL?

To receive Solana from your swap, we recommend using Phantom, Solflare, or Trust Wallet. Make sure your wallet supports the Solana network before starting the exchange. Double-check your SOL address before confirming — cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### What format is the SOL address?

Use a Solana address: it is 32–44 letters and numbers with no 0x prefix. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand.

### Can I track my XMR to SOL 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 SOL on Solana Explorer (https://explorer.solana.com).

### Is it safe to exchange XMR for SOL on GhostSwap?

GhostSwap is non-custodial: there is no account balance holding your coins. Your XMR deposit is converted and the SOL is sent straight to the Solana address you enter, so check that address twice — Solana transfers cannot be reversed.

### Will my SOL be linked to my XMR?

Since Monero is private by default: ring signatures, stealth addresses and RingCT hide the sender, the receiver and the amount of every transaction, the source of your funds is already protected. The SOL you receive will appear as a fresh transaction on the Solana 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 SOL swap work?

Monero lives on Monero and Solana on Solana, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your XMR on Monero and pays native SOL on Solana, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees.

### What happens if my XMR to SOL 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.
