Monero → Cardano
Monero in, Cardano out. Send XMR from your own wallet and receive native ADA at a Cardano address that starts with addr1. A staking wallet works fine for receiving. The ADA payout is public on Cardano from the moment it is sent.

Network: Cardano
ADA on the Cardano network. Use a Cardano address that starts with addr1; stake1 reward addresses cannot receive payments, and Cardano native tokens are not supported.
Confirm live availability and the final quote before sending.
Why people swap Monero for Cardano
XMR to ADA is the route back from Monero into Cardano, usually to stake, to use a Cardano app, or to rebalance after holding XMR. Since few exchanges list Monero, a direct swap avoids selling into a third coin first.
How long it takes
The Monero deposit takes about twenty minutes to reach ten confirmations. After manual processing the ADA payout is sent; Cardano produces a block about every twenty seconds, so it usually arrives within minutes.
Wallet and address details
Send from your own Monero wallet. Receive to a Cardano address starting with addr1 from a wallet such as Eternl, Lace, Yoroi or a hardware wallet. If the address belongs to an exchange, confirm it accepts ADA deposits from outside senders.
Fees at a realistic amount
Swapping 2 XMR worth about 1,000 USD: the 0.5% service fee is 5 USD and is already inside the ADA receive amount. Your wallet pays the small Monero fee; the Cardano payout fee is included in the quote.
Common mistakes on this route
- Pasting a stake1 reward address, which cannot receive payments.
- Sending XMR before the wallet has finished syncing.
- Expecting a Cardano native token; this route pays ADA only.
- Assuming Monero privacy carries over to the public ADA payout.

Yes. Use a receiving address from your Cardano wallet that starts with addr1; delegated wallets receive normally and the new ADA counts toward your stake. Never use a stake1 reward address as the payout address.
