AAVE to RUNE at a glance

AAVE to RUNE: questions and answers
How do I swap AAVE to RUNE without KYC?
Enter the AAVE amount on this page, paste your RUNE address and send your AAVE to the deposit address shown. AltoSwap has no accounts and asks for no identity documents, and it routes your swap through exchanges rated A for KYC, meaning providers that do not run identity checks. The RUNE is paid directly to your wallet.
What is the AAVE to RUNE exchange rate?
The rate moves with the market every few seconds and depends on the amount. The calculator at the top of this page requests live quotes from 20+ exchanges and shows the best current AAVE to RUNE rate for the amount you enter.
What are the minimum and maximum for AAVE to RUNE?
The minimum is about 0.0314 AAVE and the maximum about 9,820 AAVE. Limits vary slightly between exchanges and follow market prices; the form tells you immediately if your amount is outside the range.
How long does a AAVE to RUNE swap take?
Usually 5 to 30 minutes. Most of that is waiting for your AAVE deposit to confirm on Ethereum, which takes about 2-5 minutes. There is no verification step, so nothing else adds to the wait.
Is swapping AAVE to RUNE anonymous?
AltoSwap does not know who you are (no account, no email, no identity checks) and the default route uses no-KYC exchanges. Both Ethereum and THORChain are public ledgers, though, so the transactions themselves are visible on-chain. For on-chain privacy, swap into a privacy coin such as Monero.
Which RUNE address should I use?
Your RUNE is paid on THORChain. Use an address that starts with thor1. If your wallet or exchange gave you a memo, enter it as well; for a personal wallet it can usually be left empty. Always use an address in a wallet you control and double-check the first and last characters before sending.
What fees are included in the AAVE to RUNE rate?
Everything. The exchange's spread, the THORChain network fee for the payout and any service commission are already inside the quoted rate, so the amount shown is what you receive: exactly on a fixed rate, approximately on a floating rate. You only pay your own Ethereum network fee to send the deposit.
Can I swap RUNE back to AAVE?
Yes. The reverse direction, RUNE to AAVE, works the same way and has its own page and live rate on AltoSwap. Each direction is quoted independently, so the two rates are not exact mirrors of each other.
