Before you swap SOL to ADA
- Send SOL on Solana only — your deposit address is generated for Solana (base58, 32–44 characters).
- Your wallet adds the Solana network fee on top of the amount you send, so keep a little extra SOL.
- Solana adds a block about every 0.4 seconds and your deposit is credited once the transaction is finalized on Solana, so expect a few minutes to confirm on Solana + manual payout.
- Send between 0.1 and 2,000 SOL; 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 SOL exchange page.
Fees and exchange rate
ShadowSwap adds no spread or service fee: the SOL → ADA rate is the ratio of their live USD prices. Your wallet pays the Solana fee for the deposit in SOL; 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: SOL to ADA
A few minutes to confirm on Solana + manual payout. Your SOL deposit is credited once the transaction is finalized on Solana, where a block is added about every 0.4 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 SOL goes to a one-time Solana deposit address that ShadowSwap controls until the team sends your ADA. Check the address, network and amount before you send.
