Swap BTC to ETH Online — Fast Bitcoin to Ethereum Exchange
Swap BTC to ETH online and convert Bitcoin to Ethereum using the live quote shown before you create the order. Check the estimated ETH amount, service fee and available rate mode, then receive the payout directly to your wallet. Eligible swaps can start without opening a persistent trading account.
The destination asset on this page is ETH on Ethereum Mainnet unless the live order explicitly states otherwise. The exchange form is the authoritative source for the current minimum, available rate type, maximum order and estimated payout.
BTC to ETH Swap Rate and Converter
The BTC-to-ETH rate shows how much Ethereum the current route can return for a Bitcoin amount. Because market prices and available liquidity change, the rate and estimated receive amount should be checked again in the live form before the order is created.
| BTC | ETH (estimated) |
|---|---|
| 0.001 BTC | 0.034003 ETH |
| 0.005 BTC | 0.17001 ETH |
| 0.01 BTC | 0.34003 ETH |
| 0.05 BTC | 1.70 ETH |
| 0.1 BTC | 3.40 ETH |
| 0.5 BTC | 17.00 ETH |
| 1 BTC | 34.00 ETH |
The historical ratio chart shows how many ETH one BTC was worth over the selected period. It is useful for rate context only; the executable swap quote comes from the exchange widget.
BTC price increased from 33.94 ETH on 18 Oct 2026 to 34.00 ETH on 19 Oct 2026.
BTC price increased from 32.75 ETH on 12 Oct 2026 to 34.00 ETH on 19 Oct 2026.

Swap Bitcoin Mainnet to Native ETH on Ethereum
BTC and ETH are native assets of different blockchains, so this route is not a normal transfer from one wallet address to another. Bitcoin is sent to the deposit details created for the swap, while the result is paid to the Ethereum destination entered for the order.
| Exchange detail | You send | You receive |
|---|---|---|
| Asset | Bitcoin (BTC) | Ethereum (ETH) |
| Network | Bitcoin Mainnet | Ethereum Mainnet |
| Asset type | Native BTC | Native ETH |
| Destination | BTC deposit details generated for the order | Your Ethereum wallet address |
| Address check | Follow the Bitcoin deposit details exactly | Verify the Ethereum destination and network before creating the order |
The payout is native ETH rather than WBTC. That distinction matters because WBTC is a token representation of Bitcoin, while this page changes the asset itself from BTC to ETH.
How to Get a Favorable BTC to ETH Exchange
A favorable BTC → ETH swap is better judged by the estimated ETH payout than by a headline market ratio alone. Compare the live quote with the Bitcoin network fee, service fee and available rate mode before creating the order.
The widget shows the expected ETH amount before you send BTC. If a fixed rate is offered, compare it with floating mode; otherwise the quote can move with the market until the order is created.
BTC to ETH Swap Fees, Minimum and Processing Time
The order form remains authoritative for the exact amount available at the moment you create a swap. The values below describe the normal service conditions for this route and should not be treated as a guaranteed final quote.
| Condition | BTC → ETH route |
|---|---|
| Approximate minimum | About $9 equivalent; the live route minimum overrides |
| Estimated service fee | 0.24%–1.37% |
| Typical service processing | 6–12 minutes after the required blockchain confirmations |
| Payout | Direct to the destination wallet for a normal eligible swap |
| Rate mode | Floating by default; fixed only when the widget explicitly offers it |
| Maximum order | Dynamic according to route availability and liquidity |
Bitcoin confirmation time and service processing time are separate parts of the order. The 6–12 minute estimate starts after the required blockchain confirmations have been received, so total elapsed time can be longer when the Bitcoin network is slow or the transaction confirmation takes more time.
There is no additional service fee added after the order is created. Network costs remain separate or are reflected by the active route, and eligible swaps can start without a persistent trading account; risk-based transaction screening still applies and additional verification may be requested when required.
How to Swap BTC to ETH
The process separates the Bitcoin deposit from the Ethereum payout so that each network can be checked independently. Review the amount, addresses and networks before sending funds because blockchain transactions cannot normally be reversed after broadcast.
- 1
Select BTC and ETH. Use Bitcoin as the send asset and Ethereum as the receive asset.
- 2
Enter the BTC amount. Review the current BTC → ETH quote and the estimated ETH payout shown by the exchange widget.
- 3
Enter your Ethereum address. Use the destination address for the network shown in the order, normally Ethereum Mainnet for this route.
- 4
Review the order details. Check the send amount, receive estimate, rate type, destination network and wallet address before creating the order.
- 5
Send BTC. Transfer Bitcoin only to the BTC deposit details generated for that specific order.
- 6
Receive ETH. After the required Bitcoin confirmations and service processing, the ETH payout is sent to the destination wallet.
Can You Send BTC Directly to an Ethereum Wallet?
Native BTC should not be sent directly to a standard Ethereum receiving address. A BTC → ETH swap needs separate Bitcoin deposit details and an Ethereum destination because the two assets operate on different networks and use different transaction systems.
Common mistakes
- Sending BTC to the Ethereum destination instead of the generated Bitcoin deposit details.
- Entering an Ethereum address but selecting or expecting a different payout network.
- Copying an address incompletely or failing to compare the beginning and end before confirming.
- Treating BTC → ETH as if it were a direct same-network wallet transfer.
- Sending a different asset or network than the order specifies.
Before sending BTC
- Confirm that BTC is the send asset and ETH is the receive asset.
- Check the Bitcoin amount against the live minimum and current quote.
- Verify the Ethereum destination address in full.
- Confirm the destination network shown by the order.
- Send Bitcoin only after the order has generated the deposit details.

BTC to ETH Swap vs Bitcoin-to-Ethereum Bridge
A swap and a bridge can address different goals. This page is designed for changing native Bitcoin into Ethereum, while bridge workflows generally focus on moving or representing value across networks and may involve wrapped assets or bridge-specific contracts.
| BTC → ETH swap | Bridge / wrapped route | |
|---|---|---|
| Starting asset | Native BTC | Depends on the bridge |
| Main goal | Change BTC into ETH | Move or represent value across chains |
| Final asset for this page | Native ETH | Depends on the bridge route |
| WBTC required | No | Some bridge models may use wrapped Bitcoin representations |
| User action | Send BTC, receive ETH | Follow the bridge's asset and contract flow |
If the goal is to finish with ETH rather than keep a Bitcoin representation on Ethereum, an asset swap is the more direct description of the route. The live order should still be checked for the exact source network, destination network and payout asset before funds are sent.
What You Can Do with ETH After the Swap
After the payout reaches the Ethereum wallet, the balance can be used as ETH on Ethereum Mainnet. The next action depends on the wallet and application, so the network should be checked again before another transfer or contract interaction.
- Send ETH to another Ethereum address.
- Keep ETH available to pay Ethereum network fees for later outgoing transactions.
- Use ETH where an Ethereum application or smart contract requires the native asset.
- Swap ETH into another supported cryptocurrency through a separate route.
For the difference between native ETH and its wrapped ERC-20 representation, see Native ETH vs WETH.
Ethereum Gas After Your BTC to ETH Swap
You do not need to pay Ethereum gas simply to receive the ETH payout at your wallet. Gas becomes relevant when you later send ETH or interact with an Ethereum smart contract, and the actual fee can change between the time it is estimated and the time the wallet signs or the network includes the transaction.
For current network conditions and a configurable fee estimate, open the Ethereum Gas Tracker.

Enter the Bitcoin amount, review the current BTC-to-ETH quote and confirm the Ethereum destination before creating the order. Use the deposit details generated for that order rather than sending BTC to the Ethereum receiving address.
Swap BTC to ETHBTC to ETH FAQ
Can I swap BTC for ETH?
Yes. The route accepts Bitcoin as the send asset and pays Ethereum to the destination address specified for the order, subject to the live route conditions and transaction screening.
How long does a BTC to ETH swap take?
Typical service processing is 6–12 minutes after the required blockchain confirmations. Bitcoin confirmation time occurs before that processing estimate and can make the total order time longer.
Do I receive native ETH or wrapped Bitcoin?
The planned payout for this page is native ETH on Ethereum Mainnet unless the live order explicitly states otherwise. It is not a WBTC payout.
Do I need ETH for gas to receive the payout?
No. The recipient does not need to spend ETH gas just to receive the incoming payout. Gas is needed for a later outgoing Ethereum transaction or smart-contract interaction.
Can I swap ETH back to BTC?
Yes. Use the separate ETH to BTC swap page because the source network, gas requirements and Bitcoin destination checks are different in the reverse direction.
