Common Questions About Swapping ETH to BTC
Can I send ETH directly from a crypto exchange?
Yes. The exchange must support ETH withdrawals on Ethereum. Select Ethereum as the withdrawal network and send the funds to the deposit address generated for the swap.
What Bitcoin address should I enter?
Enter a Bitcoin address you control for receiving native BTC on the Bitcoin network.
What happens after I send ETH?
After Ethereum confirms the deposit, the swap executes and delivers native BTC on the Bitcoin network to your receive address.
How do I know when the swap is complete?
The swap status will show when the exchange is complete. Once the destination asset has been sent, you can also view the transaction directly on the destination blockchain explorer.
