XMR to RUNE at a glance
Coming from Monero, the exchange only ever sees a XMR deposit. The history behind those coins is not visible to it. The payout in RUNE is an ordinary public transaction on THORChain, sent to the address you provide.
Your RUNE is paid on THORChain. Use an address that starts with thor1. If your wallet or exchange gave you a memo, enter it as well; for a personal wallet it can usually be left empty.

XMR to RUNE: questions and answers
How do I swap XMR to RUNE without KYC?
Enter the XMR amount on this page, paste your RUNE address and send your XMR 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 RUNE is paid directly to your wallet.
What is the XMR to RUNE exchange rate?
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 XMR to RUNE rate for the amount you enter.
What are the minimum and maximum for XMR to RUNE?
The minimum is about 0.0225 XMR and the maximum about 7,040 XMR. Limits vary slightly between exchanges and follow market prices; the form tells you immediately if your amount is outside the range.
How long does a XMR to RUNE swap take?
Usually 5 to 30 minutes. Most of that is waiting for your XMR deposit to confirm on Monero, which takes about 20 minutes (10 confirmations). There is no verification step, so nothing else adds to the wait.
Is swapping XMR to RUNE anonymous?
AltoSwap does not know who you are (no account, no email, no identity checks) and the default route uses no-KYC exchanges. Your XMR deposit is private by Monero's design; the RUNE payout is a normal public transaction on THORChain.
Which RUNE address should I use?
Your RUNE is paid on THORChain. Use an address that starts with thor1. 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.
What fees are included in the XMR to RUNE rate?
Everything. The exchange's spread, the THORChain 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 Monero network fee to send the deposit.
Can I swap RUNE back to XMR?
Yes. The reverse direction, RUNE to XMR, 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.
