How to Swap Bitcoin to Ethereum

To swap BTC for ETH, send BTC and get ETH. The main risk is a bad addr, net, rate, or site. Go slow. Use a site you can vet. Use an ETH addr you own. Send BTC to the BTC addr in the quote. BTC and ETH use two nets. Do not mix them.

Read the quote. See the BTC sum, ETH sum, rate, net, and cap. A float rate may shift as BTC waits for confs. Check all addr data x2. Keep seed and key off web. No real site asks for them. Wait for BTC confs, then see ETH in your wallet.

Do a test first. Go slow. If in doubt, stop. Ask a pro. Save the tx ID. Log the sum, net, and time. Keep all mail and notes.

Safety Tips

Can I send Bitcoin directly to my Ethereum address?

No. Bitcoin and Ethereum use different address formats and chains. Send BTC only to the Bitcoin deposit address provided for the swap. Your Ethereum address is where the ETH should be delivered.

Why can the ETH amount change while swapping BTC to ETH?

With a floating rate, the BTC to ETH price can move while your Bitcoin transaction waits for confirmations. A fixed quote can reduce that uncertainty, but read its time limit and exact BTC amount rules before sending.

Which Ethereum network should I use for BTC to ETH swaps?

For standard ETH, use an Ethereum mainnet address unless the swap quote clearly states another network. Do not select an L2 or sidechain just because your wallet supports it. A network mismatch can delay or lose funds.
