How to exchange SOL for POL safely and at a good rate
Exchanging SOL for POL is useful when you rebalance a portfolio or want to move from one network to another without buying stablecoins in between. At ROVEN exchange the coins are swapped directly, and the rate is locked when you create the order.
Solana (SOL) is a high-speed blockchain with sub-cent fees, popular in DeFi and NFTs. POL (formerly MATIC) is the coin of Polygon PoS, an Ethereum-compatible network with fees in cents.
Why swap SOL for POL
Shifting between SOL and POL is a normal part of managing a portfolio: you change your exposure without cashing out to fiat. With POL you get access to the apps, staking and tokens of the Polygon PoS network.
Networks and addresses
| You send SOL | You receive POL | |
|---|---|---|
| Network | Solana | Polygon PoS |
| Address | 32–44 base58 characters | “0x” + 40 characters |
| Network speed | a transfer confirms in a few seconds | a block comes every 2 seconds |
| Memo / tag | Not needed | Not needed |
What to watch out for
- Send SOL on Solana mainnet, not wrapped SOL on other blockchains.
- A Polygon address is the same as an Ethereum one; select the Polygon network in your wallet to see POL.
- The rate is locked for 30 minutes: send SOL within that time and you’ll receive exactly the amount shown in the order.
How long the swap takes
Swap speed depends on both networks. On Solana, a transfer confirms in a few seconds; on Polygon PoS, a block comes every 2 seconds. The whole SOL to POL swap usually takes 5 to 30 minutes once your transfer is confirmed.
