In shortTo swap USD Coin (Solana) (USDC) to Stellar (XLM) without KYC, enter the amount, paste your XLM address and send your USDC to the one-time deposit address.

Rates come from live exchange quotes and refresh automatically. Page content reviewed by the AltoSwap team on . How we produce and check these pages.
Because USDC is pegged to the US dollar, this swap is effectively buying Stellar at its dollar price, minus the spread, without opening an exchange account, passing verification or waiting for a withdrawal.
Your XLM is paid on Stellar. Use an address that starts with G. If your wallet or exchange gave you a memo, enter it as well; for a personal wallet it can usually be left empty.
Type how much USDC you want to swap (minimum about 6.91 USDC). The XLM you will receive updates live.
The best no-KYC rate is already chosen for you. The form shows what you receive, how long it usually takes and the KYC rating of the route.
Paste the Stellar address where you want to be paid, plus a memo if you were given one. A refund address for your USDC is optional but recommended.
Send the exact amount to the deposit address on Solana. After it confirms (usually under a minute), the XLM is sent to your address.

Enter the USDC amount on this page, paste your XLM address and send your USDC to the deposit address shown. AltoSwap has no accounts and asks for no identity documents, and it routes your swap through exchanges rated A for KYC, meaning providers that do not run identity checks. The XLM is paid directly to your wallet.
The rate moves with the market every few seconds and depends on the amount. The calculator at the top of this page requests live quotes from 20+ exchanges and shows the best current USDC to XLM rate for the amount you enter.
The minimum is about 6.91 USDC and the maximum about 2,157,973 USDC. Limits vary slightly between exchanges and follow market prices; the form tells you immediately if your amount is outside the range.
Usually 5 to 30 minutes. Most of that is waiting for your USDC deposit to confirm on Solana, which takes usually under a minute. 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 Solana and Stellar 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 XLM is paid on Stellar. Use an address that starts with G. If your wallet or exchange gave you a memo, enter it as well; for a personal wallet it can usually be left empty. 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 Stellar 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 Solana network fee to send the deposit.
Yes. The reverse direction, XLM to USDC (Solana), 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.
