What is a swap? How does it work?

What is a swap? How does it work explained for MyTonWallet users, including key terms, how it works, and practical tips.

A swap enables direct cryptocurrency exchange within your wallet. MyTonWallet supports two types of swaps:

• On-chain swaps within the same blockchain

• Cross-chain swaps between different blockchains

🔗 On-Chain Swaps

Exchange tokens within a single blockchain network (e.g., TON) through a fully decentralized process.

Example: Convert TON to MY, HMSTR, STON, or other supported tokens directly in your wallet.

💱 Cross-Chain Swaps

Transfer assets between different blockchain networks, including TON, TRON, and others.

Example: Convert TON to BTC without using an exchange. Simply provide a BTC wallet address, and the swap is processed through our trusted partner, Changelly.
