Swap AVAX from Avalanche C-Chain to SOL on Solana
Swap AVAX from Avalanche C-Chain to SOL on Solana. Native AVAX leaves C-Chain, and SOL is what can arrive, identified by the wrapped SOL mint.
Both assets are gas coins in their own worlds, and they are not the same kind of address. AVAX is 0xEeeeeEeeeEeEeeEeEeEeeEEEeeeeEeeeeeeeEEeE on chain id 43114, checked on Snowtrace. SOL is So11111111111111111111111111111111111111112, the wrapped mint, checked on Solscan. Native SOL pays Solana fees. Phantom holds the account. There is no ERC-20 approval on that side, and an X-Chain AVAX balance cannot start the hop.

Frequently asked questions
What is the best way to swap AVAX from Avalanche C-Chain to SOL on Solana?
Both assets are gas coins in their own worlds, and they are not the same kind of address. AVAX is 0xEeeeeEeeeEeEeeEeEeEeeEEEeeeeEeeeeeeeEEeE on chain id 43114, checked on Snowtrace.
Are AVAX and SOL the same kind of gas address?
No. AVAX is the sentinel 0xEeeeeEeeeEeEeeEeEeEeeEEEeeeeEeeeeeeeEEeE on C-Chain, chain id 43114, explorer Snowtrace. SOL on this quote is the wrapped mint So11111111111111111111111111111111111111112, explorer Solscan. Native SOL pays Solana fees. Phantom holds it. There is no ERC-20 approval on Solana. A block interval is not a delivery time for the bridge.
Can I send X-Chain AVAX to buy SOL?
No. This quote spends C-Chain AVAX only. X-Chain and P-Chain balances do not sign the EVM transaction. Switch to chain id 43114, leave a fee remainder, and confirm the debit on Snowtrace. The SOL credit, if it comes, is visible in Phantom and on Solscan, not in that C-Chain view.
What if I needed USDC on Solana rather than SOL?
Use a USDC route. Circle's mint is EPjFWdd5AufqSSqeM2qN1xzybapC8G4wEGGkZwyTDt1v, and this page delivers SOL instead. Tether is Es9vMFrzaCERmJfrF4H2FYD4KCoNkY11McCe8BenwNYB. Selling AVAX into the wrong mint is expensive to unwind. Read the minimum only after the destination asset is the one you meant. Switch the wallet to the destination chain before you judge the balance.
