Frequently asked questions
›Is it private?
Monero is private; Solana is public. Your trades, positions and bridge withdrawal requests (including the XMR address) are visible on Solana. The private balance (beta) keeps idle XMR out of plain view, but moves in and out are public with their amounts. See Privacy.
›Why wXMR?
Monero can't run Solana trades directly. wXMR is XMR represented on Solana, so you can trade while your balance stays in XMR terms.
›Why does a deposit take so long?
Monero needs 10 confirmations (~20 min) before the bridge or an exchange credits you.
›Where are my funds?
In your own Solana wallet (the key is in your browser), held as wXMR or tokens. Private-balance funds sit in Helius Privacy under your keys.
›Can I lose money?
Yes — through price moves, memecoin collapses, a bridge failure, or losing your backup. Read Risks.
›Do I need SOL?
No. The app keeps a small SOL reserve and tops it up from XMR automatically.
›Do I need Phantom?
No. The wallet lives in the browser. You can import your 12 words into Phantom later if you want.
›Which Monero wallets work?
Any wallet that can send XMR. "Open in wallet" links work with Cake Wallet and Monero GUI; the QR works with Cake, Feather (Send → Scan), Monerujo and Stack Wallet.
›What is the minimum deposit?
0.1 XMR via the bridge; smaller amounts go through an exchange with its own live minimum.
›How much does it cost?
The app fee per trade plus the bridge or exchange fee on deposits and withdrawals. See Fees.
›Can I close the tab after paying?
Yes. The buy completes the next time you open the terminal and unlock — your key never runs on a server.
›Do TP/SL orders run when the tab is closed?
No. They run only in an open, unlocked tab.
›My auto-buy didn't go through — where is my money?
It stays as XMR in the terminal. The limits (1% slippage, 5% price impact) protected you from a bad fill; buy manually or withdraw.
›My withdrawal hasn't arrived.
Check the Withdraw page for the tx hash and tx key and verify in your wallet. See Withdrawals.
›Why should I use a new subaddress?
The withdrawal address becomes public on Solana. With a fresh subaddress per withdrawal, your withdrawals don’t all point to one address.
›I lost my device. What now?
Restore from your 12 words on a new device. Without them, funds can't be recovered.
›Does my passkey work on another device?
Passkeys sync through your password manager, but the wallet itself is stored in this browser. Use your 12-word backup to restore elsewhere.
›Is the bridge custodial?
Yes. The wxmr.io team holds the XMR backing wXMR. Reserves are public at wxmr.io/transparency.
›What if the bridge goes down?
The terminal switches to exchange routes for deposits and withdrawals and warns you. See outages.
›Is a token without warnings safe?
No. Safety labels catch known technical traps only.
›Can the operator see or move my funds?
No. Keys never leave your browser; the server only relays public data and signed transactions.
›When does $TOKEN launch?
It hasn't launched yet. Follow /revenue and the roadmap.
›Do I need an account or KYC?
No account and no email. Exchanges may run their own AML checks on swaps.
