What you can do with SOL

SOL and SPL tokens

Hold SOL and supported SPL tokens such as stablecoins on one Solana address.

Set up your Solana wallet

1

Install Virtex Wallet

Download the app from Google Play and create a new wallet or import an existing recovery phrase.

2

Find your Solana address

Open SOL and tap Receive. The same address receives supported SPL tokens.

3

Add SOL

Buy SOL in the app, swap into it, or withdraw from an exchange on the Solana network.

4

Stake, send or swap

Keep a little SOL for fees and use the rest however you like.

Keep a little SOL. Every Solana transaction, including sending USDC or USDT, is paid in SOL. Staked SOL activates and deactivates at epoch boundaries, which takes roughly 2 to 3 days. Blockchain transactions can't be reversed. This page is general information, not financial advice.

Solana wallet questions

What is a Solana wallet?

A wallet that holds SOL, the native coin of the Solana blockchain, and tokens built on it (SPL tokens) such as USDC and USDT on Solana.

Can I stake SOL in Virtex Wallet?

Yes. You can delegate SOL to a validator in non-custodial mode or use custodial staking. The app shows estimated rewards, commission and the unstaking period before you confirm.

Do I need SOL to send USDC on Solana?

Yes. Solana network fees are paid in SOL, so keep a small amount in your wallet even if you mostly hold stablecoins.

Is my Solana address the same as my Ethereum address?

No. Solana uses its own address format (base58, no 0x prefix). Only send Solana assets on the Solana network to a Solana address.

Is Virtex Wallet custodial or non-custodial?

Both. Non-custodial mode means only you hold the keys. Custodial mode lets Virtex hold them for easier recovery. Custodial mode is not available in the EEA, the UK or the United States.
