SOL to BNB

Solana to BNB: what you are looking at

This page follows the price relationship between Solana (SOL) and BNB (BNB) and compares it with the prices that banks, money apps and exchanges actually ask. At the latest update on October 31, 2026, 1 SOL buys 0.136842 BNB, while one BNB equals 7.3077 SOL.

The figure at the top is the mid-market rate, sometimes called the interbank rate. It sits exactly halfway between the price at which large banks buy SOL and the price at which they sell it. Think of it as the cleanest reference you can get: nobody earns anything on it directly, and that is why few consumer services pass it on unchanged.

The amount that lands in the other account depends on two things: the gap between the provider’s rate and the mid-market rate and any fixed or percentage fee. In the sections below we explain how those costs work, show how they add up on a real amount and share simple habits to get closer to the mid-market rate when converting SOL to BNB.

Crypto spreads, network fees and custody

Crypto prices differ from platform to platform. On an exchange with an order book, you pay the difference between bid and ask, and a commission per trade. Simple broker apps often show one price which hides a wider spread.

If you withdraw coins to a wallet, you pay a network or withdrawal fee. That fee does not depend on the amount, so for small amounts it can be a large share. Make sure the sending and receiving side use the same network: coins sent over the wrong network can be lost.

Crypto prices can move sharply within minutes. Quoted prices tend to expire quickly, while large trades risk slippage. Treat the figure above as an indication.

Also decide who holds the keys. If you leave crypto on a platform, the platform controls it, while in your own wallet you are fully responsible for the keys. Look for registration with a financial supervisor before you deposit.

Larger transfers: what to check first

Check the provider’s licence first. A regulated provider is registered with a supervisor such as the FCA or your national central bank. Regulated firms have to safeguard client funds, which protects you if something goes wrong.

Check names and account details twice. An international payment is hard to reverse once it is sent. Be suspicious if someone urges you to pay quickly or suddenly changes bank details. Verify through a channel you trust.

Larger transfers often come with additional questions. Providers may ask for proof of where the money comes from, such as a payslip, sale agreement or bank statement. For big amounts it can pay to ask for a better rate. Some also let you lock in a rate for a short period.

Mid-market rate versus the rate you get

Nearly every bank and app stay away from the mid-market rate itself. Instead they offer a rate that is a little less favourable and keep the difference. People call this the markup. If the margin is 2%, then about 2 out of every 100 SOL never reach the recipient.

Besides the hidden margin, most banks charge an explicit fee. It may be a fixed amount per transfer, a share of what you send or both at once. With international bank payments the receiving or intermediary bank sometimes deducts a charge too, which shrinks the amount that finally arrives.

Be wary of anything sold as commission-free. Free usually means the price is built into the exchange rate. The reliable test is the total amount that arrives in BNB for the same amount of SOL, and that is the figure our table ranks on.

Solana against BNB: the last twelve months

Compared with a year ago, the price of SOL in BNB moved by -20.06%. Within those twelve months the rate peaked at 0.173198 BNB for one SOL, while the lowest was 0.107784. Today’s rate of 0.136842 is easy to place within that band.

That range between high and low puts the movement into real terms. When you convert a substantial sum, the moment you choose can make a noticeable difference to what arrives, occasionally more than the difference between providers.

The rate reflects central bank policy, economic data and shifts in risk appetite. We show the figures as they are and do not make predictions. If timing matters to you, use an alert or limit order rather than a hunch.

Example: converting 10.0000 SOL

Take an amount of 10.0000 SOL. Using the reference rate of 0.136842, that sum sets the ceiling for what the recipient could get. In reality every provider keeps something, since the margin and fees are taken out along the way.

Across the 15 providers in our comparison, Crypto.com gave the best result: the recipient gets 1.3667 BNB in the end. The gap between 1.3667 BNB and the theoretical maximum is what the conversion actually cost you.

Bear in mind that a different amount can produce a different winner. A flat fee hurts most when the amount is small, whereas a percentage margin grows along with the amount. Try your actual amount in the calculator above and check whether the order changes.

Why we compare total cost

We start from the live mid-market rate for SOL/BNB. For each provider we apply its published fees and the margin it adds to the rate, which gives the amount the recipient receives. In total 15 providers are included, placed side by side.

We update the rates every 30 minutes, with October 31, 2026 as the reference date. The final price is always set by the provider itself, and it can differ slightly from our calculation, especially when markets are busy.

We are not owned by any provider. Some of the links are affiliate links, which help fund our work. The order is never affected by them: the only ranking criterion is the amount received.

Practical ways to save on SOL/BNB

Look at the final amount, not just the fee. A low headline fee proves nothing because the margin can make up the difference. The fairest figure to compare is the amount received, which combines margin and fee.

When you pay by card abroad, you can get a choice between your own currency and the local one. This is called dynamic currency conversion. The rate used is usually poor. Pick the local currency and the conversion follows your card’s own terms.

Timing plays a role too. At weekends, with the wholesale market shut, some services add an extra buffer to the rate. When there is no deadline, a rate alert or limit order lets you convert automatically once SOL/BNB reaches a level you choose. It saves you from checking the rate every day, but there is no guarantee the rate will get there.

Also check how you fund the transfer. A credit card may be treated as a cash advance by your card issuer, and a regular bank transfer to the provider is usually the cheapest way in. Bundling smaller transfers also cuts the impact of fixed fees.
