Swap ETH from Ethereum to SOL on Solana

Swap ETH from Ethereum to SOL on Solana. You send native ether on Ethereum and you receive SOL on Solana, the coin Phantom and Solflare use for fees.

On Ethereum the input is the marker 0xEeeeeEeeeEeEeeEeEeEeeEEEeeeeEeeeeeeeEEeE, which means ETH, the gas coin on chain id 1. Etherscan shows that native send. Blocks are about 12 seconds, and you do not approve an ERC-20. On Solana the payout mint is So11111111111111111111111111111111111111112, wrapped SOL. Match it on Solscan. There is no ERC-20 approval on Solana. The two gas coins are not the same asset.

ETH leaves Ethereum. SOL is what can arrive on Solana.

Two gas coins, two address styles

ETH uses a 0x marker because routers need a stand-in for the EVM gas coin. SOL uses the wrapped mint So11111111111111111111111111111111111111112 because Solana identifies the asset as an SPL mint. Sending ETH does not unwrap WETH, and receiving SOL does not give you WETH. If you hold only WETH, this page will not take it.

Wrapped SOL is what Solscan lists

Solscan should show So11111111111111111111111111111111111111112. Phantom and Solflare spend native SOL on fees, and this route is how the page delivers that SOL side. Do not look the mint up on Etherscan. Do not paste it into an Ethereum token field. No ERC-20 approval happens after the Ethereum transaction confirms.

Skip it if you wanted a dollar balance

USDC and USDT on Solana are different pages. This one pays a coin that moves with the SOL market while Ethereum is still confirming. It is the wrong tool if you wanted to keep ETH, or if you needed Tether or Circle's token. How cross-chain bridges work is the background, not a price. Sign only if the minimum SOL is acceptable.

Both prices can move while you wait

You leave ETH and arrive in SOL. Neither side is a stablecoin. The estimate on the quote is not a floor. The minimum SOL is the floor. ETH gas is an extra cost on chain id 1 and can be high even when blocks land near 12 seconds. That pace is not a delivery promise. Check the wallet network before you sign.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best way to swap ETH from Ethereum to SOL on Solana?

On Ethereum the input is the marker 0xEeeeeEeeeEeEeeEeEeEeeEEEeeeeEeeeeeeeEEeE, which means ETH, the gas coin on chain id 1. Etherscan shows that native send.

Are ETH and SOL the same gas coin under two tickers?

No. ETH is the gas coin on Ethereum, chain id 1, marked 0xEeeeeEeeeEeEeeEeEeEeeEEEeeeeEeeeeeeeEEeE and tracked on Etherscan. SOL is the gas coin on Solana. This page lists the wrapped mint So11111111111111111111111111111111111111112, which you match on Solscan. Phantom or Solflare spends native SOL. There is no ERC-20 approval on Solana.

Can I receive USDC if I change the amount?

No. The amount does not change the asset. This route pays SOL, not Circle USDC and not Tether. If you need dollars on Solana, you are on the wrong page. Leave the quote unsigned. A larger ETH send still arrives as SOL, with SOL price exposure while the route is open.

What if SOL falls after Ethereum has confirmed?

This site cannot pull the ETH back, and it does not insure the SOL price. That is why you read the minimum before you sign. A new quote is available only if you have not signed the old one. Gas on the send is ETH. The roughly 12 second block is not a promise about the SOL you will see.
