Swapping Tron for XRP: what you need to know
To switch from Tron to XRP 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.
Tron (TRX) is the coin of the Tron network, which carries most of the world’s USDT transfers. XRP is the coin of the XRP Ledger, built for fast international payments between banks and people.
Why swap TRX for XRP
Coins serve different purposes, and sometimes holding XRP makes more sense — for faster transfers, staking or the XRP Ledger ecosystem. XRP was built for fast, cheap transfers, which makes it handy for payments.
Networks and addresses
| You send TRX | You receive XRP | |
|---|---|---|
| Network | Tron | XRP Ledger |
| Address | “T” + 33 characters | “r…”, 25–35 characters |
| Network speed | a block comes every 3 seconds | a transfer confirms in 3–5 seconds |
| Memo / tag | Not needed | Only for an exchange address |
What to watch out for
- Send TRX on Tron mainnet, not TRX tokens on other blockchains.
- A new XRP address is activated only after it receives the 1 XRP reserve.
- If you’re receiving XRP to an exchange address, be sure to enter that exchange’s memo.
- 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 Tron, a block comes every 3 seconds; on XRP Ledger, a transfer confirms in 3–5 seconds. The whole TRX to XRP swap usually takes 5 to 30 minutes once your transfer is confirmed.
The current rate is 1 TRX = 0.275826 XRP and the minimum amount is 66.666667 TRX. Create an order in the form above, and ROVEN exchange will send swap updates by email or Telegram.
