Convert Ethereum (ETH) to Monero (XMR)
Why swap ETH to XMR. Ethereum and its layer-2 networks are public: every ETH transfer shows the sender, the receiver and the amount, while Monero hides all three. Over the 90 days to 14 October 2026, ETH was the second most common coin swapped into XMR on Symbiosis after USDT: 51 of 280 swaps, worth about $744,000.
ETH on Arbitrum, Base or Optimism. You can swap ETH from Ethereum, Arbitrum One, Base and Optimism. On 15 October 2026, 1 ETH returned 4.2978–4.2990 XMR on all four networks; gas for the deposit is lower on the layer-2 networks than on Ethereum.
Ethereum to Monero bridge. Monero runs on its own blockchain without smart contracts, so swaps from ETH need a route that delivers native XMR. In the app this route is labeled Bridge to Monero, and the XMR lands at your Monero address. Depending on the route, a swap may use Symbiosis infrastructure together with external liquidity sources, such as DEXs, pools, aggregators, or partner protocols.
ETH to XMR exchange rate and fees. On 15 October 2026, 1 ETH returned about 4.30 XMR after all costs. The full cost was about 1.6% of the amount and is already included in the XMR you receive; network gas for the deposit is paid on top.
Minimum and wallets. On 15 October 2026, the minimum swap was about 0.0075 ETH (about $18); 0.005 ETH was below the route limit. ETH is sent from a wallet such as MetaMask or Rabby, and XMR goes to a Monero address starting with 4 or 8, for example from Feather, Cake Wallet, Monerujo or the Monero GUI.
Speed. Over the 90 days to 14 October 2026, the median swap took about 5 minutes, and 90% finished within 10 minutes.
Other routes: Monero (XMR) exchange, XMR to ETH, USDT to XMR, BTC to XMR, SOL to XMR, Swap ETH.

How to swap ETH to XMR
A real case from 5 October 2026: a user swapped 1.3064 ETH (~$3,537) on Ethereum and received 6.2746 XMR on Monero via Symbiosis in 4 minutes 17 seconds. Swaps into XMR are not instant: plan for a few minutes. The steps:
Selected the pair. ETH on Ethereum as the coin to send and XMR on Monero as the coin to receive. The same flow works for ETH on Arbitrum One, Base or Optimism.
Connected a wallet and entered a Monero address. An Ethereum wallet such as MetaMask sends the ETH. The receiving side was a Monero address from a wallet such as Cake Wallet or Feather. No registration and no KYC.
Chose the amount. 1.3064 ETH (~$3,537), with a little extra ETH left in the wallet for gas.
Checked the ETH to XMR rate. The route card listed the XMR to receive, the fee, the rate and an estimated time, plus a 2% slippage tolerance.
Signed and received XMR. One transaction signed on Ethereum; 6.2746 XMR arrived at the Monero address 4 minutes 17 seconds later. Etherscan shows the ETH deposit; the Monero payout itself stays hidden.
