Been recommended Cake Wallet, Retoswap and Edge, but I already have Trust Wallet, metamask, keystores, Keplr, Binance, etc, so I'm trying to consolidate and reduce wallet bloat.
Thanks though, if nothing works out, will need to go one of the suggested routes.
There is no need to set up any new wallet or accounts. Let me know if you need help
Thank you, do you have a dumb people's guide on how to buy XMR on cake/other through Binance Wallet? I have funds there I need to decentralize anyway. Any suggestions welcome 🐾 ~ SK
I would start by moving your BTC to a new BTC wallet on Cake Wallet (only mobile so far). Then I would create a Monero wallet on Cake Wallet too. Then I would swap in chunks to the Monero wallet.
Or I would just use Trocador or Orangefren to swap from wallet to wallet. In chunks.
Yes always send swaps from a self custody wallet not an exchange to avoid any withdrawal issues. So if your trying to swap from an exchange you need to first send to a wallet you have the keys to and if you do not have a self custody wallet then you WOULD need to create one first. I assumed you already had one.
Yeah......this is DSK here, can I DM ya? The transac is done but the XMR balance won't update 💀🙈
You probably just need to wait for enough confirmation before your balance updates.
What...what have I done.....wrong?
I've used swaps for many years now..🫠
Your wallet is syncing looks like there are a lot of block to sync so just wait no need to be patient.
I don't think waiting several hours is being impatient at all.
Just didn't know it took that long. If I did, I'd have waited.
Until your wallet syncs up to the block the tx was in it will show zero your wallet only knows what happened up to 13XXX blocks ago.
Gotcha.
I remember I used to have to wait 24 hours sometimes when I used to transact on Thorchain long ago.
Okay, I'll wait until tomorrow, no sweat.
But MAN do we need a dummy's-guide-to-all-things-Monero 📜
The tx happened but your wallet isn’t synced so it can’t see it yet if that makes sense.

Is background sync on cake wallet automatic or do they need to do something in settings or leave the app open to sync?
And contact Trocador with you transaction ID if you don't see any transaction after it is finished sync blocks.
Yes if it’s still not showing up after syncing then you will need to contact support.
You send money to a Random guy wallet if its small he swap it if not money gone
Try to change connection of the nodes manually. I hade same problem with first transaction, changed node and went through real quick after that.
Will bookmark the suggestion for next time.
Yeah, did as nostr:nprofile1qqspyg42w26pqrvlsgsctnz72dqa4er5cdzuj08ntkzf07ma0d8syygpr9mhxw309a382emdv9hzumt8w4ujumn9wsargwp58qq3samnwvaz7tmgdvh8qatjwpkx2un9d3shjtnrdaksfqagv7 + nostr:nprofile1qqs28sd9emdghp4hedjdt440tr78s7ayqrefz2us095aya28l9j5t5qpp3mhxue69uhkyunz9e5k7qg4waehxw309ajkgetw9ehx7um5wghxcctwvsxrck32 suggested combined, most importantly leaving the app open until the ETA showing ran out ⌛ and the wallet balance updated.
Ngl tho folks, this was a steep 🏑 learning curve.
I want to do some other experiments with other wallets, but I'm cautious now.
Though, thanks all for the help! ~ DSK
If your wallet was synced before you did the swap it should have been near instant.
It was a new wallet, there was nothing to sync.
Well your screenshot showed almost 14,000 unsynced blocks so it couldn’t have been synced each block is about 2 minutes so 28,000 minutes which is 466 hours or about 19 days of unsynced blocks. So your tx on the blockchain was complete but you wallet could only see up to 19 days ago because it wasn’t synced.
Thanks, but this makes 0 sense to me since I'd only just whipped up the wallet for that specific transaction?
Steps: Make new wallet, save seed, click swap, input another wallet's ETH address for the USDC to pay for the XMR, click swap, wait.
At what step are you saying the wallet wasn't synced? Also, this is legit not a problem across 20+ wallets I've used in my Blockchain lifetime.
Confusing AF 💀
Yea kinda getting in the weeds here.
You didn’t do anything wrong the wallet and the node were not synced for some reason (bad connection through Tor maybe, internet connection or…).
A wallet needs to connect to a blockchain through a self hosted or public node. If the node or wallet are not synced you are not going to see the transaction. This would be true of any blockchain.
I might not be explaining it well enough but glad it worked in the end.
Who have you used for swap?
Contact their support. I have tried that multiple times, usually (at least with Trocador) they take action pretty fast.
And yes as nostr:nprofile1qqs28sd9emdghp4hedjdt440tr78s7ayqrefz2us095aya28l9j5t5qpp3mhxue69uhkyunz9e5k7qg4waehxw309ajkgetw9ehx7um5wghxcctwvsxrck32 says, make sure it is not already confirming.
