Solana‑specific notes
- Native SOL transfers don’t require a memo.
- Fees are tiny; finalization is typically rapid.
- Use a reputable explorer (Solscan/SolanaFM) to verify the SOL leg if needed.
Fees, confirmations, and timing
- Fees: You’ll see service and network fees up front. SOL fees are minimal; USDC payout fees depend on the destination network.
- Confirmations: Payout begins after SOL confirmations; then USDC is broadcast on the destination chain.
- Timing: Usually fast end‑to‑end, especially when using SPL, TRC20, or L2 networks.
Quotes, slippage, and expirations
- Quotes reflect current liquidity and can change during volatility.
- For fixed quotes, send within the timer; otherwise create a fresh quote.
- Small under/overpayments may auto‑recalculate; larger deltas can pause or refund.
Fixed vs floating rate
- Fixed: Locks your USDC amount for a short window—ideal when you need an exact amount.
- Floating: Executes at market when your SOL arrives—more flexible timing, amount may vary slightly.
Privacy checklist
- Use a fresh address for each swap.
- Avoid public labeling of your addresses.
- Consider splitting very large swaps into multiple smaller ones.
- Keep wallets updated for accurate fees and broadcasting.
Prices
Worked example
- You hold 600 SOL and want USDC (SPL) to a new Phantom address.
- Fixed quote: Send exactly 600.0000 SOL within the window to receive the quoted USDC.
- Floating quote: Send 600.0000 SOL; final USDC reflects the market on execution.
Troubleshooting
- USDC hasn’t arrived: Confirm SOL finalization, then check the destination network’s explorer.
- Wrong network/address: Ensure the USDC network you selected matches the address format (SPL vs ERC20 vs TRC20 vs L2).
- Expired quote: Create a fresh quote and resend within the timer.
