Before you swap ETH to ADA
- Send ETH on Ethereum only — your deposit address is generated for Ethereum (0x followed by 40 hex characters).
- ETH is also listed on BNB Chain, Arbitrum One, Base, but this swap only watches Ethereum: ETH sent from another network won’t be detected.
- Your wallet adds the Ethereum network fee on top of the amount you send, so keep a little extra ETH.
- Ethereum adds a block about every 12 seconds and your deposit is credited after 12 confirmations on Ethereum, so expect a few minutes to confirm on Ethereum + manual payout.
- Send between 0.01 and 1,000 ETH; the widget won’t create a swap outside this range.
- You need an address on Cardano to receive ADA (starts with addr1).
- ADA is also listed on BNB Chain. This pair pays out on Cardano only — make sure your wallet or exchange account accepts ADA on Cardano. Funds sent on a network your wallet doesn't support can be hard or impossible to recover.
Swapping the other way? Deposits of 20–500,000 ADA are credited after 20 confirmations on Cardano: a few minutes to confirm on Cardano + manual payout. Use the ADA to ETH exchange page.
Fees and exchange rate
ShadowSwap adds no spread or service fee: the ETH → ADA rate is the ratio of their live USD prices. Your wallet pays the Ethereum fee for the deposit in ETH; the Cardano network fee for sending your ADA is deducted from the payout. The ADA amount is calculated when you create the swap and saved on your order. See how ShadowSwap fees work.
FAQ: ETH to ADA
A few minutes to confirm on Ethereum + manual payout. Your ETH deposit is credited after 12 confirmations on Ethereum, where a block is added about every 12 seconds; payouts are not automatic, so the ShadowSwap team then sends your ADA on Cardano.
On this page, ADA is sent on Cardano. You need an address on Cardano to receive it — starts with addr1.
ShadowSwap does: your ETH goes to a one-time Ethereum deposit address that ShadowSwap controls until the team sends your ADA. Check the address, network and amount before you send.
