Monero Bridge: how to bridge to and from Monero
Monero hides amounts or senders by design. A bridge cannot easily prove what was deposited, and many exchanges and protocols avoid privacy coins for regulatory reasons. That is why very few routes exist and some are still being built.
Quick answer
Services supporting Monero: 1. Most used in our guides: ChangeNOW. Direct transfers possible to: Ethereum, Bitcoin, Solana, BNB Chain, Arbitrum, Base, TRON, Hyperliquid.
Popular services
ChangeNOW
ChangeNOW is an instant exchange service that swaps between more than a thousand coins across many networks, with no account needed. It covers coins that bridges cannot reach, such as Monero, Kaspa and Zcash. While the swap runs, the company holds your coins.

Why Monero has few routes
Only 1 of the projects we track support Monero, so many pairs have no direct route and prices vary more.
Alternative ways to move funds
Native swap protocols
Protocols such as THORChain, Chainflip or NEAR Intents swap native coins across chains from their own vaults. You receive the real coin, not a wrapped token, and you keep custody until you send.
Through a centralised exchange
Deposit on Monero, trade if needed, and withdraw on the destination network. Simple and often cheap, but the exchange holds your funds in between and needs identity verification.
Two steps through a well-connected chain
If no single route exists, first move to a chain with many connections (Ethereum, Solana or a major rollup), then on to the destination. It costs two fees, but each step uses a well-tested route.
How transfers work on Monero
- Swap services and intent networks exchange Monero for another coin using their own liquidity instead of a lock-and-mint bridge.
- Some exchanges still list Monero, but availability depends on your country and can change without notice.
- Planned bridges rely on new cryptography or trusted operators. Check the route guides for their current status.
What to watch out for
- Liquidity is thin: large amounts can move the price or fail to fill.
- Delistings happen. Confirm the route is still open right before you send.
- Privacy is usually lost once the coin leaves Monero: the other chain records the transfer publicly.
