Swap Ethereum (ETH) to Monero (XMR)
Swapping Ethereum (ETH) to Monero (XMR) moves value off a fully transparent ledger — where every balance and counterparty is permanently public — into Monero's private-by-default chain. SwapRocket aggregates non-custodial quotes across connected providers and settles native XMR straight to your own wallet: no account, no identity documents to start, and no wrapped or bridged token at the other end.

- 02Paste your Monero wallet address.

Fixed rate or floating rate for ETH → XMR?
- Fixed rate
- The XMR amount is locked when you confirm. The provider carries the market risk while your ETH deposit confirms, so the payout matches the quote even if the price moves. Best when you need certainty on the exact amount received.
- Floating rate
- The swap executes at the market rate when your ETH deposit lands. Usually pays out slightly more XMR than a fixed quote, but the final amount can move up or down while the deposit confirms.
Why swap ETH to XMR on SwapRocket
- Aggregated rate comparison. SwapRocket compares quotes across multiple providers so your XMR payout reflects the strongest quote SwapRocket found at that moment — with zero added fees, so you can compare elsewhere before confirming.
- Non-custodial. SwapRocket never holds your ETH or XMR. The Monero is sent straight to the wallet address you provide.
- No account. No SwapRocket account is required to swap ETH for XMR. The selected provider may request identity verification or hold a transaction for review under its own compliance policy, regardless of amount.
- Fixed or floating rate. Lock the ETH/XMR rate at quote time, or use the market rate at execution.
Why swap ETH → XMR
- Move DeFi or trading proceeds out of a publicly traceable ETH address into private XMR.
- Hold a portion of a portfolio in an asset that isn't subject to on-chain surveillance or address clustering.
- Fund a new Monero wallet from an existing Ethereum balance in one step.
- Avoid the delistings — many large exchanges no longer list XMR at all.
Network fees explained
- Sending ETH
- Ethereum gas is set by your wallet at broadcast time. A plain ETH transfer to the deposit address costs a few dollars during normal blocks and more during congestion. SwapRocket's quoted XMR output is net of provider fees — the gas is charged by your wallet, not by SwapRocket.
- Receiving XMR
- The Monero payout is broadcast and paid for by the routing provider, so you don't need any XMR pre-funded. Monero's own fees are a fraction of a cent for later sends.

Fees and pricing

SwapRocket does not add a separate fee or markup to the provider quote. SwapRocket may earn a commission from the liquidity provider when a completed swap is referred through our platform. Provider spreads and applicable network costs are reflected in the quoted amount.

What's the minimum ETH to XMR swap?
