Enter the ADA amount on this page, choose an offer, paste your SOL address and send your ADA to the deposit address shown. AltoSwap has no accounts and asks for no identity documents, and by default it only shows exchanges rated A for KYC, meaning providers that do not run identity checks. The SOL is paid directly to your wallet.
At the last update, 1 ADA ≈ 0.00208314 SOL (the best of 2 no-KYC offers for 1,000 ADA). Rates move with the market every few seconds, so use the calculator at the top of the page for the live rate on your exact amount.
The minimum is about 11 ADA and the maximum about 3,422,165 ADA. Limits vary slightly between exchanges and follow market prices; the form tells you immediately if your amount is outside the range.
Usually around 15 min. Most of that is waiting for your ADA deposit to confirm on Cardano, which takes about 2-5 minutes. There is no verification step, so nothing else adds to the wait.
AltoSwap does not know who you are (no account, no email, no identity checks) and the default route uses no-KYC exchanges. Both Cardano and Solana are public ledgers, though, so the transactions themselves are visible on-chain. For on-chain privacy, swap into a privacy coin such as Monero.
Your SOL is paid on Solana. Use an address that is a 32-44 character base58 string. Always use an address in a wallet you control and double-check the first and last characters before sending.
Everything. The exchange's spread, the Solana network fee for the payout and any service commission are already inside the quoted rate, so the amount shown is what you receive: exactly on a fixed rate, approximately on a floating rate. You only pay your own Cardano network fee to send the deposit.
Yes. The reverse direction, SOL to ADA, works the same way and has its own page and live rate on AltoSwap. Each direction is quoted independently, so the two rates are not exact mirrors of each other.
