Swap Ether for Monero without an account: enter the amount, paste your 4… or 8… address and send ETH from any Ethereum wallet.
XMRYou hold ETH and want Monero — to settle something priced in XMR, or to move part of a balance off a chain where every transfer, token and contract call under your address is readable by anyone.
Ethereum has no way to pay a Monero address. The ETH is received at a one-time deposit address here, Ethereum confirms it 15 times — about 4–10 minutes — and then XMR is sent to the address you gave. The Ethereum side is fast; the only slow part is the 10-block lock on the Monero side before the XMR can be spent again.
 ETH on Ethereum | XMR on Monero | |
|---|---|---|
| Address format | 0x… (42 characters) | 4… or 8… (95 characters) |
| Fee token | ETH | XMR |
| Confirmations we wait for | 15 | 5 |
| Explorer | etherscan.io | monerohash.com |
Paste the 95-character address (4… or 8…) from your Monero wallet. The estimate is in XMR.
You get a one-time 0x… address. Send a plain ETH transfer from any wallet — ETH itself on Ethereum mainnet, not WETH, not ETH on a rollup.
15 confirmations, about 4–10 minutes. The XMR amount is fixed at that point.
The status page shows your Etherscan hash and the Monero payout hash. Sync the Monero wallet to see the balance.
A wallet connected to Base or Arbitrum will happily send to the 0x… address shown here, and the transaction will succeed — on that network. The deposit address is watched on Ethereum mainnet only. Check the network selector in the wallet before you confirm.
The transaction itself needs gas, paid in ETH from the same wallet. Wallets that let you type 'max' usually subtract it; those that do not will fail the transaction, or, worse, send less than the amount the swap expects.
| Way | What you need | Where it is slower or dearer |
|---|---|---|
| An exchange that lists XMR | An account, an ETH deposit, a sale, a Monero withdrawal | A withdrawal fee, two waits, and an exchange that still offers XMR withdrawals |
| A peer-to-peer trade | A counterparty who holds XMR, escrow or trust | Negotiated price; time; your Ethereum address shared with the counterparty |
| This swap | Two addresses | A floating rate fixed at the 15th Ethereum confirmation |
Etherscan records your deposit completely: the sending address, the one-time deposit address, the amount, the gas and the time. The XMR payout appears on the Monero explorer as a hash in a block, and that is all — no amount, no address. Someone who looks at your Ethereum address will see ETH leaving to an address they cannot connect to anything; someone who looks at the Monero chain will see nothing that points back.
About 4–10 minutes for 15 Ethereum confirmations, then the Monero payout, which lands in a block within about two minutes.
10 blocks after the payout is mined, about 20 minutes. The wallet shows the amount as balance at once and as unlocked balance after the lock expires.
Yes. Withdraw ETH on the Ethereum network (sometimes labelled ERC-20 or mainnet) to the deposit address. Exchanges deduct their withdrawal fee, so withdraw slightly more than the amount on this page.
No. A primary address or a subaddress is enough. Integrated addresses with a payment ID are not needed for a personal wallet.
It is under the amount field and follows Ethereum gas and the Monero fee at that moment.
Write to support with the swap ID from the status page. The form has no refund address: a swap that cannot be completed is handled by hand, and a return to the address you sent from is arranged under the partner's rules, less the network fee.
