How to exchange BCH for SOL safely and at a good rate
To switch from Bitcoin Cash to Solana you don’t need to sell for dollars first and then buy again. ROVEN exchange does it in one step: one order, one rate, one payout.
Bitcoin Cash (BCH) is a 2017 fork of Bitcoin with bigger blocks and fees of a fraction of a cent. Solana (SOL) is a high-speed blockchain with sub-cent fees, popular in DeFi and NFTs.
Why swap BCH for SOL
Coins serve different purposes, and sometimes holding SOL makes more sense — for faster transfers, staking or the Solana ecosystem. With SOL you get access to the apps, staking and tokens of the Solana network.
Networks and addresses
| You send BCH | You receive SOL | |
|---|---|---|
| Network | Bitcoin Cash | Solana |
| Address | “q…” or “bitcoincash:q…” | 32–44 base58 characters |
| Network speed | a block comes roughly every 10 minutes | a transfer confirms in a few seconds |
| Memo / tag | Not needed | Not needed |
What to watch out for
- Don’t send BCH from a Bitcoin wallet or vice versa — they’re different networks.
- Phantom, Solflare or any Solana wallet works for receiving SOL.
- Send the exact amount from the order and do it within 30 minutes, while the locked rate is valid.
How long the swap takes
Swap speed depends on both networks. On Bitcoin Cash, a block comes roughly every 10 minutes; on Solana, a transfer confirms in a few seconds. The whole BCH to SOL swap usually takes 5 to 30 minutes once your transfer is confirmed.
The current rate is 1 BCH = 3.191382 SOL and the minimum amount is 0.066667 BCH. Create an order in the form above, and ROVEN exchange will send swap updates by email or Telegram.
