Swap ETH to BTC at a Live Ethereum-Bitcoin Rate

Exchange Ethereum for native Bitcoin through a direct crypto-to-crypto order. Send ETH on the Ethereum network, review the current quote, and receive BTC on Bitcoin mainnet at the destination address you provide.

The order uses separate deposit and payout networks rather than sending one asset directly to the other chain. The receive amount shown for the order reflects the active route and current exchange conditions before you send funds.

Current ETH to BTC Rate and Quote

The live ETH/BTC rate shows how much Bitcoin one Ether currently represents for this pair. The executable order quote can differ slightly from a simple market ratio because it also reflects the available route and order conditions.

Live rate is temporarily unavailable. Please check the exchange widget for the current quote.

Use the quote displayed for your order when deciding how much ETH to send. Static rates are not used on this page because the pair value changes with the market.

ETH/BTC Rate Movement Before a Swap

Recent pair movement can help you see how the ETH-to-BTC ratio has changed before creating an order. This chart is historical reference data for swap planning, not a prediction of where either asset will move next.

The chart tracks the value of 1 ETH in BTC across the selected period. Where supported by the data source, it can also display the current rate together with the period high, low and percentage change.

Common ETH Amounts Converted to BTC

Common amount examples make it easier to estimate the receive side without creating separate fixed-amount pages. Each value below should use the live pair rate rather than a hard-coded conversion.

Conversion table is temporarily unavailable. Please use the exchange widget for the current quote.

The table is only a reference for the canonical ETH-to-BTC route. The amount and payout shown in the exchange widget remain the values that matter for an actual order.

How ETH Is Exchanged for Native Bitcoin

An ETH-to-BTC order moves value between two independent blockchains, so the process has separate deposit and payout stages. The service waits for the required Ethereum confirmations before processing the conversion and broadcasting the Bitcoin payout.

  1. 1

    Enter the ETH amount and review the current BTC quote.

  2. 2

    Add the Bitcoin mainnet address where you want to receive BTC.

  3. 3

    Send ETH to the generated Ethereum deposit address shown for the order.

  4. 4

    After the required confirmations and service processing, the BTC payout is broadcast to the Bitcoin network.

Ethereum In, Bitcoin Out: Network and Wallet Requirements

Ethereum and Bitcoin use different networks and different address formats, so this is not a direct blockchain transfer from an ETH address to a BTC address. ETH is deposited on Ethereum, while the payout is native BTC sent through Bitcoin mainnet.

For this route, the payout is native Bitcoin rather than WBTC or another wrapped token. Standard Bitcoin mainnet addresses validated by the order form can use bc1q, bc1p, 1 or 3 prefixes; Lightning invoices are not used for this payout route.

What to Check Before Sending ETH

A short pre-send check prevents most avoidable routing and wallet mistakes. Review the order details before broadcasting the Ethereum transaction because blockchain transfers cannot normally be reversed after confirmation.

  • Confirm that the deposit asset is ETH on the Ethereum network.
  • Check the Bitcoin destination address and make sure it belongs to the wallet you intend to use.
  • Review the current receive amount and any rate mode shown by the widget.
  • Make sure the order amount is inside the live minimum and maximum displayed for the route.
  • Keep enough ETH in the sending wallet to pay Ethereum gas separately from the swap amount.
  • Recheck the generated deposit address before sending.

Fees, Limits and Rate Type for ETH to BTC

The service price and blockchain costs are separate parts of the transaction. The live order quote has priority because route liquidity, rate mode and network conditions can affect the amount available for a specific swap.

Estimated service fee0.27%–1.43%
Approximate starting minimumAbout $10 equivalent; live route minimum has priority
Maximum orderDynamic by route and available liquidity; shown in the widget
Ethereum gasPaid separately by the sender
Bitcoin payout network costReflected in the receive-side quote before order creation
Rate modeFloating by default; fixed rate on selected routes when the widget offers it
Typical service processing5–11 minutes after the required blockchain confirmations

No additional service fee is added after an order is created. Network confirmation times are outside the service-processing range, so the total elapsed time can be longer when Ethereum or Bitcoin network conditions change.

Swap ETH to BTC Without Registration

Eligible swaps can start without creating a persistent trading account. This keeps a standard one-time exchange focused on the order itself rather than requiring an ongoing account balance or trading profile.

A no-account flow does not mean that every transaction is exempt from compliance checks. Swap-ETH.io uses risk-based transaction screening, and additional verification may be requested for flagged orders in line with the AML Policy.

Why Users Convert Ethereum to Bitcoin

Moving from ETH to BTC can serve several practical crypto-to-crypto needs without first converting through fiat. The relevant reason depends on what the user plans to do with the Bitcoin after the swap rather than on a prediction about future market performance.

Rebalance crypto holdings

Move part of an Ethereum-denominated position into BTC

Fund a Bitcoin wallet

Receive native BTC directly at a Bitcoin mainnet address

Prepare for a Bitcoin-native payment or transfer

Move value into the asset required by the destination workflow

Avoid a fiat intermediate step

Complete the conversion as a direct crypto-to-crypto order

Other outbound Ethereum routes are available from the ETH swap hub when Bitcoin is not the required destination asset.

FAQ

Can I swap ETH to BTC directly?

Yes. The service creates a crypto-to-crypto exchange order in which you deposit ETH on Ethereum and receive BTC on Bitcoin mainnet; it is not a direct transfer of ETH to a Bitcoin address.

Will I receive native BTC or WBTC?

This route pays native BTC on Bitcoin mainnet. It does not pay WBTC, and it is not an Ethereum-to-Bitcoin bridge transaction.

Which Bitcoin addresses can receive the payout?

The order form validates standard Bitcoin mainnet destinations using bc1q, bc1p, 1 and 3 address prefixes. Lightning invoices are not used for this route.

What is the minimum ETH-to-BTC order?

The site-level starting point is about $10 equivalent, but the live minimum shown in the widget for the current route takes priority.

How long does an ETH-to-BTC swap take?

Typical service processing is 5–11 minutes after the required blockchain confirmations. Ethereum confirmation time and Bitcoin network settlement are separate and can change with network conditions.

Do I need an account or KYC for the swap?

Eligible orders can start without creating a persistent trading account. Risk-based AML screening still applies, and additional verification can be requested for flagged transactions.

How are fees handled?

The estimated service fee is 0.27%–1.43%. Ethereum gas is paid separately by the sender, while the Bitcoin payout network cost is reflected in the receive-side quote before the order is created.

Can I choose a fixed or floating rate?

Floating rate is the default model. A fixed rate can be used on selected routes only when that option is shown in the exchange widget.
