Introducing the THORChain Native Swap Interface

Introducing the THORChain Native Swap Interface

The only swap interface built to put THORChain first.

We built swap.thorchain.org as the protocol's home base - a place where every swap prioritizes native cross-chain trading. No wrapped tokens. No centralized exchanges. Zero friction. Built for the community that makes it all possible.


Why We Built It

THORChain has always been infrastructure. A trustless, decentralized liquidity layer that powers swaps for wallets, aggregators, and exchanges across the ecosystem.

But we realized something: the community needed a front door.

We needed a place where anyone, whether you're swapping BTC for ETH or discovering THORChain for the first time, could experience the protocol directly. A place that puts THORChain first, keeps fees low, and makes cross-chain swaps feel effortless.

Most interfaces that integrate THORChain offer many alternatives. That's fine, it's their business. But the THORChain community deserves a home base. A swap interface that's unapologetically focused on THORChain cross-chain swaps, built with the protocol's values at the core.

Our primary goal is to drive transaction volume to THORChain. By building our own interface, we have direct control over the user experience, the routing logic, and how we give people the ultimate THORChain experience. This gives us the ability to actively grow the protocol in ways that align with the community's long-term vision.


How It Works

The THORChain swap interface is designed around a simple idea: make cross-chain swaps as easy as possible on THORChain.

Here's what that looks like in practice:

Use any self-custody crypto wallet in the world.

Connect your wallet and swap. Simple as that.

Cross-chain swaps without wrapped tokens.

Swap native BTC for native ETH. Native DOGE for native AVAX. Countless swap combinations made possible without bridges or wrapped assets.

Optional wallet connection.

Don't want to connect your wallet? You don't have to. Send funds directly from any wallet to initiate a swap. Currently supported for BTC, ETH, XRP, BNB, TRON, DOGE, BCH, LTC, AVAX, and ATOM.

Open source.

The swap interface is open source and built for transparency. This is infrastructure for the entire ecosystem.

Avoid centralized exchanges for cross-chain swaps.

Swap cross-chain, trustlessly, from any supported network.

Simple, intuitive UI.

No clutter. No confusion. Just a clean interface that gets you from asset A to asset B.


What's Next

This is a beta release. We're planning an official launch in early Q1 2026, but we want to get this into your hands now so you can start using it, testing it, and giving us feedback.

Here's what's coming:

  • Thousands more tokens. We're expanding support to unlock more assets across more chains.
  • Better UI for easier swaps. Smoother onboarding, clearer routing visibility, and a more intuitive experience.
  • THORChain features. Bonding, LPing, and all the other actions you can do on the protocol.
  • Community-driven iteration. This is built for you. Tell us what you need.

Where to Access It

swap.thorchain.org

That's it. Open it in your browser. Swap native assets across chains, with any crypto wallet in the world.

Check it out.


Note: This interface is currently in beta and will change a lot over the next couple months. Use it, test it, and share your feedback. Together, we're building the future of decentralized cross-chain swaps.
