The SOL to slonSOL bridge is closed. Deposits are not accepted.
Read this before you send any SOL.
- SLON is a pre-mainnet test network, not a production mainnet. It has been restarted from a new genesis several times; recorded restarts include August 9, September 4, September 19 and September 22, 2026.
- A restart wipes all account state on SLON, including every slonSOL balance. Nothing in the bridge code restores slonSOL balances after a restart. The SOL stays in the custody wallet on Solana.
- The bridge is switched off on the current chain. The node reports getBridgeStatus enabled: false (the STATUS box below reads it live), and the current validator code does not register the bridge program. SOL sent now cannot be turned into slonSOL.
- Deposits are closed. The custody is an ordinary Solana wallet. Its private key is held by the project operator. No Solana program locks the SOL, so getting it back depends on that operator.
- There is no automated withdrawal to Solana. Redeem on SLON only records a release request. The Solana transfer back has to be signed and sent by hand by the operator, and the tooling for that step is not finished.

1. Deposits are closed.
Do not send SOL. The bridge is off on the current chain, so SOL sent now cannot be credited as slonSOL. The deposit address has been taken off this page. The SOL already in custody is shown above as SOL LOCKED.
2. When the bridge is enabled, the bridge operator mints slonSOL to your wallet
1 SOL → 1 slonSOL, to the same wallet you sent from, on the SLON testnet.
3. Use slonSOL: hold it, swap it for SLON once the AMM is live, or redeem it (see the slonSOL → SOL tab).
Each slonSOL is meant to be matched 1:1 by SOL in the custody wallet above. That wallet is held by the operator, not by a program. A chain restart erases slonSOL balances on SLON while the SOL stays in the custody wallet. Live figures are at the top of this page.
1. Burn slonSOL on the SLON testnet (Redeem) — specify your Solana-mainnet recipient.
2. The operator releases SOL from custody to your mainnet address. This is a manual step: no code sends the Solana transfer automatically, and the bridge is switched off on the current chain.

slonSOL ↔ SLON (native)AMM — coming soon
The on-chain AMM (AeX402, program 3AMM53MsJZy2Jvf7PeHHga3bsGjWV4TSaYz29WUtcdje) is being deployed to the SLON testnet. The slonSOL/SLON swap pool goes live right here once liquidity is seeded.
