Swap SOL from Solana to ETH on BNB Chain
Swap SOL from Solana to ETH on BNB Chain. SOL leaves Solana, and Binance-Peg Ethereum Token is what can arrive. That is a BEP-20, not native ETH, not WETH, and not gas.
You spend So11111111111111111111111111111111111111112, the wrapped SOL mint, in Phantom. Solscan shows it. Native SOL pays the fee. There is no ERC-20 approval. The peg is 0x2170Ed0880ac9A755fd29B2688956BD959F933F8 on chain id 56. BscScan is the explorer. Blocks are about 3 seconds. BNB is 0xEeeeeEeeeEeEeeEeEeEeeEEEeeeeEeeeeeeeEEeE and is what pays fees. Mainnet WETH is 0xC02aaA39b223FE8D0A0e5C4F27eAD9083C756Cc2 on chain id 1. WBTC is not this peg and is not native bitcoin.

Frequently asked questions
What is the best way to swap SOL from Solana to ETH on BNB Chain?
You spend So11111111111111111111111111111111111111112, the wrapped SOL mint, in Phantom. Solscan shows it.
Is ETH on BNB Chain from SOL the same as mainnet ETH?
No. You receive the peg 0x2170Ed0880ac9A755fd29B2688956BD959F933F8 on chain id 56. Mainnet ETH is chain id 1, about 12 second blocks, Etherscan. WETH there is 0xC02aaA39b223FE8D0A0e5C4F27eAD9083C756Cc2. This peg cannot pay gas. BNB can. SOL left as the wrapped mint. Check BscScan. Switch the wallet to the destination chain before you judge the balance.
What has to stay in the Solana wallet?
Native SOL, so Phantom can pay the fee. The quote uses So11111111111111111111111111111111111111112 and does not use an ERC-20 approval. Solscan shows the debit. After arrival, the EVM wallet needs BNB, 0xEeeeeEeeeEeEeeEeEeEeeEEEeeeeEeeeeeeeEEeE, or the peg cannot be transferred on chain id 56. Do not send a second time while the first transfer is still open.
Should I use this route to refill gas?
No. Gas on BNB Chain is BNB, and this page delivers pegged ETH. Use the BNB route for fees. Use this page when a contract names 0x2170Ed0880ac9A755fd29B2688956BD959F933F8. About 3 second blocks are not a delivery promise. Read the minimum before you sell SOL. Confirm the contract on the explorer before you sign.
