How to swap ETH to Monero without KYC
Ethereum is fully transparent. Every transfer, contract call, and balance is public and permanent, and it is trivially linkable. Swapping ETH into Monero is how you take value off that public trail and into private, default-shielded money.
Why move ETH into Monero?
On Ethereum, anyone can follow your wallet: what you hold, who you pay, and when. Monero hides amounts, senders, and receivers at the protocol level, by default, for every transaction. Moving ETH to XMR breaks the link between your transparent history and your future spending.
Swap ETH to Monero, step by step
- Open an ETH to Monero swap and enter how much ETH you want to move. You will see the rate and the minimum you will receive up front.
- Paste your Monero address. No account, no email, no KYC. Add a refund address if you like.
- Send your ETH to the deposit address shown. It goes to the settlement network, never to us.
- Your XMR lands at your address, usually in about 15 to 20 minutes.
Keep the swap actually private
- Use Tor. Mask your IP from the site and the network. MoneroSwap runs over an onion service with no JavaScript.
- Mind the source address. If your ETH comes from an address tied to your identity, that link still exists on Ethereum. The swap protects what happens after, not before.
- Use a non-custodial swap. So your ETH is never held in an account that can be frozen or that demands ID. How to tell.
