PYUSDSOL

Swap PayPal USD (PYUSD) to Solana (SOL)

Buying SOL with PYUSD turns a fixed number of dollars into a position that rises and falls with SOL. SOL pays every network fee on Solana and sits in the middle of most routes, which is why its market is among the deepest on the network.

How to swap PYUSD to SOL

  1. 1

    Connect a wallet holding PYUSD

    Connect Phantom, Solflare or Backpack in the swap panel; the wallet also needs a little SOL for the network fee, even though you are paying in PYUSD.

  2. 2

    Check the PYUSD you are selling

    The panel sells the PYUSD at mint 2b1k…4GXo for SOL; if the PYUSD in your wallet shows a different address, it is not the token this page trades.

  3. 3

    Size the PYUSD side

    Enter the PYUSD amount and read the quote: it shows how much SOL you receive and the price impact of the route before anything is committed.

  4. 4

    Sign, and receive SOL

    Approve the PYUSD swap and the SOL lands in the same wallet in about a second, with no deposit address and nothing to withdraw.

How deep the PYUSD/SOL market is

The figure above is the mid-market rate. What you receive depends on the size of your order: a swap large relative to the pool moves the price as it executes, which is the price impact shown in the quote. Jupiter reduces this by splitting an order across several venues, but it never disappears.

Beyond price impact, a PYUSD-to-SOL swap costs the Solana network fee and the Privacc fee, both already inside the quote. Full fee breakdown

What moves the PYUSD/SOL rate

Against PYUSD, this rate is the dollar price of SOL turned upside down: the more SOL costs, the less of it each PYUSD buys.

For SOL, what moves it is demand for the network, the wider crypto market and flows into and out of staking.

Which network is your PYUSD on?

PYUSD exists on several networks: Ethereum (ERC-20), Tron (TRC-20), BNB Chain (BEP-20), Arbitrum, Base and Solana. They are separate tokens that share a name, and a Solana wallet can only hold the Solana one. This page is the Solana pair.

If your PYUSD is on Ethereum, BNB Chain, Arbitrum, Base or Polygon, you do not need an exchange to bring it over: choose that network above the swap panel, set Solana as the destination, and LI.FI bridges and swaps it in one route. Tron is the exception. TRC-20 PYUSD is not supported here and has to come through an exchange.

PYUSD to SOL questions

How much SOL do I get for 1 PYUSD?

The swap panel quotes the live rate as soon as you enter an amount of PYUSD. The SOL you receive reflects the price impact of your order size and the fee, both shown before you sign.

Why buy SOL with PYUSD?

SOL pays every transaction fee on Solana, so a wallet needs some before it can do anything else, and it is the asset most Solana routes pass through.

Do I need SOL to swap PYUSD to SOL?

A small amount, yes: the fee is paid in SOL before any arrives, so a wallet holding only PYUSD cannot sign the swap.
