Questions
Quick answers.
Where do I start?
Start on the home page. Enter your source and destination assets, then on the quote screen choose Private Swap (Monero route with optional delay) or Fast Swap (aggregator, no privacy claims). If source and destination are the same asset, Drifty uses a single Refresh route.
Which assets are supported?
We support major chains including BTC, ETH, XMR, LTC, SOL, DOGE, and more. Not every pair supports Private Swap - DEX-native inputs (BTC, ETH, LTC, DOGE, XMR, and selected others) can use the Monero route. Pairs like XRP, XLM, and IOTA are Fast Swap only. See how it works for details.
Do you perform AML or KYC?
Drifty does not run onboarding KYC in this interface. Some third-party routes can still apply their own AML controls; when that risk exists we show a yellow warning before confirmation.
What is timing obfuscation?
On Private Swap and Refresh, you pick a timing tier: Fast (~30 min) or Private (3–12h). Longer delays randomize when payouts land so chain analysts have a harder time linking your deposit to your receive transaction.
Do I need JavaScript?
No. Core swap and refresh flow works fully without JavaScript, including strict Tor Browser setups.
Do you hold my funds?
We do not run exchange-style pooled balances. Some Monero routes use short-lived operational wallets to complete refresh forwarding; value is routed to the destination you specify, not held for later withdrawal.
How private can a swap be?
Private Swap and Refresh route through Monero for unlinkability - choose fast or private timing. This breaks a direct on-chain link between deposit and payout, but is not “untraceable.” Fast Swap is a single-hop aggregator route with no privacy claims. See our threat model for honest limits.
A quote did not complete. What should I do?
Try a slightly smaller size or refresh for a new route. Network conditions shift quickly, and the next quote is often better.
How does routing work today?
Drifty shows two routes when eligible: Private Swap (input → DEX or backup leg → Monero mix → outbound leg → destination) and Fast Swap (input → aggregator → destination). The quote page shows estimated total cost and time for each.
