We’re thrilled to introduce Solana as the latest chain integrated into Chainflip!

This is more than just another integration—it’s a breakthrough moment. Chainflip is now the first-ever DEX to offer native on-chain Bitcoin swaps to Solana, along with support for Ethereum, Polkadot, and Arbitrum.

After months of hard work and development, you can now swap native Bitcoin directly for SOL or SOL/USDC, without the need for bridges or wrapped tokens. No detours—just pure, seamless swaps.

Why is this a big deal?

Ever since Solana skyrocketed to become one of the most consumer-friendly blockchains, we’ve been focused on making value transfers in and out of Solana as smooth as possible. Our mission? To not only integrate the DeFi powerhouses like Ethereum but also bring underutilised giants like Bitcoin into the mix.

While many protocols are working on bringing Bitcoin to Solana, we believe that we have created the most efficient and secure solution. By offering native Bitcoin swaps without bridges or wrapped tokens, we’re solving one of the biggest pain points in cross-chain swapping.

What Makes Chainflip’s Native Swaps to and from Solana Unique?

With Chainflip, users can enjoy secure, fast, and decentralised swaps between major blockchains, without bridging-associated risks. All whilst offering amazing prices powered by our JIT AMM design. This native swap experience keeps your assets true to their original chain, without the need to wrap tokens or use third-party bridges.

The excitement around this integration has been building for months and was showcased at Solana Breakpoint 2024. The ability to swap between Bitcoin and Solana natively is a game-changer for swappers & Liquidity Providers alike, and we’re eager to see how this unlocks new possibilities within the Solana ecosystem.

Discover Seamless Cross-Chain Swaps with Chainflip

Lets walk through how a swap is executed through Chainflip utilising SOL as an asset.

Choose Your Tokens

You will see two native tokens available for swapping to Solana: SOL and USDC. Simply select either of these assets and the asset you wish to swap from (e.g., BTC <> SOL) to begin the process.

Full Wallet Abstraction

After selecting your assets, you’ll be prompted to enter your destination address on Solana. At Chainflip, we’ve designed a powerful yet easy-to-use platform. Thanks to our intuitive UI/UX and wallet abstraction, you can complete swaps without needing to connect your wallet directly, reducing smart contract risks and eliminating the hassle of complicated wallet connections.

Complete the Swap

Once your swap is complete—congratulations! You’ve successfully performed a cross-chain swap to Solana. No wrapping, no bridging, just a direct and seamless exchange of assets. This is a true milestone for both Solana and Chainflip.
