This page answers common questions about how Monavo swaps work, how fees are formed on Solana, and how wallet security is handled in a non-custodial model.
Transactions are executed on-chain through decentralized liquidity sources. Users review and sign swaps from their own wallets before execution.
Monavo is designed as a non-custodial swap interface. The platform does not take custody of user funds or hold assets in centralized accounts. Transactions are executed directly on Solana through decentralized liquidity sources and users sign each transaction from their own wallets.
Yes, if your wallet provider supports key export. Monavo does not store private keys and does not have access to them. Keys remain in the wallet environment and are used only for local transaction signing.
Assets remain in your own wallet because Monavo does not hold custody. If the interface stops operating, you still retain access to funds through any compatible Solana wallet.
SOL is the native token used to pay network transaction fees on Solana. It may also be required to create an associated token account when your wallet receives a specific token for the first time.
USDC is used as the primary routing stablecoin because it often provides deeper liquidity and more reliable execution on Solana. In many markets this can result in tighter spreads and lower slippage.
There is no withdrawal flow in the custodial-exchange sense because Monavo does not hold balances. Assets stay in your wallet and can be transferred at any time through a standard wallet interface.
Monavo prioritizes a focused set of established tokens to keep routing quality high and reduce exposure to illiquid or higher-risk markets. This improves reliability and execution predictability.
Swap pricing is based on live liquidity across decentralized exchanges on Solana. The routing system compares available pools and builds the most efficient route at that moment based on liquidity depth, network conditions, and estimated execution costs.
Small differences can happen because markets update in real time while the transaction is being confirmed. If pool balances change before execution, final output may shift slightly. Slippage controls are used to prevent execution beyond the allowed range.
Monavo does not add hidden trading fees. Costs come from Solana network fees and liquidity pool trading fees required for on-chain execution. Expected results are shown before signing.
Yes. A wallet is required to sign blockchain transactions. Monavo supports embedded wallet technology powered by Dynamic and may also support compatible external Solana wallets depending on interface configuration.
Dynamic provides embedded wallet infrastructure for onboarding with familiar login methods such as email or social authentication. The wallet remains non-custodial at the user level and keys are used only for signing.
An associated token account is a token-specific account used to store a wallet balance for a specific SPL token. It can be created the first time the wallet receives that token and then reused for future transactions.
Swaps can fail when market conditions move outside allowed slippage limits before confirmation, or when liquidity and network conditions change during processing. In those cases, assets remain in your wallet because the swap was not executed.
Most swaps confirm within a few seconds, depending on network activity and validator performance. Solana is designed for high throughput and low latency, which typically makes execution faster than many other networks.
