Bitcoin Historical Data Price Chart
Swapping ETH to BTC is one of the most common trades in crypto, and for good reason. Ethereum is where a lot of people earn, trade and use DeFi. Bitcoin is where many of them like to park their gains for the long run. On SecureShift you can swap Ethereum to Bitcoin in one step, with no account, no ID check and your BTC going straight to your own wallet.
Put an amount into the widget above to see the live ETH to BTC rate. Here's what you should know before you send.
ETH to BTC Exchange Rate
The rate in the widget comes from several liquidity sources, and we show you the best one we can find right now. ETH/BTC moves constantly, so the price on a chart site and the price you can actually trade at are rarely identical. The widget quote already includes our fee and the cost of sending you the Bitcoin.
- Floating: tracks the market until your ETH deposit arrives, then locks. Often slightly better on calm days.
- Fixed: locks the amount of BTC you'll get when you create the order. Better when prices are jumping and you want certainty.
Here's a fuller explanation of fixed vs floating rates if you want it.
How to Swap ETH to BTC
- Select the pair. Ethereum (ETH) under "You Send", Bitcoin (BTC) under "You Get". Check the network shown next to ETH matches the network you're sending from.
- Enter the amount and choose floating or fixed.
- Paste your BTC address. An address starting with bc1 is the modern standard and usually cheapest to receive to. Add an ETH refund address as well.
- Send your ETH to the one-time deposit address. Keep a little extra ETH in your wallet to cover gas.
- Get your BTC. Once the deposit is confirmed, the swap runs and Bitcoin goes to your wallet. Your order ID lets you track every step.
How Long Does an ETH to BTC Swap Take?
Usually 10 to 30 minutes. Ethereum blocks come about every 12 seconds, and we wait for 12 to 15 confirmations before processing, which normally takes a few minutes as long as you paid normal gas. Most of the waiting is on the Bitcoin side, where blocks come roughly every 10 minutes. Your wallet will show the incoming BTC almost straight away, then the first confirmation follows shortly after.
Fees and Minimum Amount
You pay three things, and only one of them is ours:
- Ethereum gas for sending your ETH to the deposit address. This goes to the Ethereum network, not to us. It's low most of the time but can spike when the network is busy.
- Our fee, already built into the rate.
- The Bitcoin network fee for sending your BTC, which is already taken off the amount the widget shows.
The minimum swap size depends on current network fees and is shown in the widget. There's no maximum.
ETH vs BTC at a Glance
| Ethereum (ETH) | Bitcoin (BTC) | |
|---|---|---|
| Main role | Platform for apps, DeFi, NFTs and stablecoins | Store of value and payments |
| Consensus | Proof of stake | Proof of work |
| Block time | About 12 seconds | About 10 minutes |
| Supply | No hard cap, partly offset by fee burning | Hard cap of 21 million |
| Earning yield | Can be staked | No native staking |
| Privacy | Public | Public |
Neither coin is private. If that matters to you, consider swapping into Monero instead. See ETH to XMR.
Why People Swap Ethereum for Bitcoin
A few reasons come up again and again. Some people take profit after a strong ETH run and want something they see as steadier. Some prefer Bitcoin's fixed supply for long-term savings. Others just watch the ETH/BTC ratio. When it's high, ETH buys more Bitcoin than usual, and some traders rotate a portion over. When it drops, the same traders often go the other way using BTC to ETH.
If you follow the bigger picture, our guide to Bitcoin dominance explains how money tends to flow between Bitcoin and altcoins across a cycle.
Tips Before You Swap
- Send from your own wallet (MetaMask, Rabby, a hardware wallet) rather than straight from an exchange withdrawal, so you know exactly what network and amount went out.
- Check the network. Sending ETH on one network to an address expecting another is the most common way people lose funds.
- Use a fresh BTC address for each swap.
- Add a refund address so your ETH comes back automatically if the swap can't finish.

Frequently Asked Questions
Most ETH to BTC swaps on SecureShift complete within 10 to 30 minutes. Ethereum requires 12 to 15 network confirmations before the exchange processes, after which Bitcoin is sent directly to your wallet. During periods of Ethereum network congestion, confirmation times may be longer. You can track your swap using the Ethereum transaction hash.
The minimum ETH amount is dynamic and shown in real time in the exchange widget before you start. Minimums vary based on current network fees to ensure the swap is economically viable. As a guide, the minimum is typically equivalent to around $20–$30 at current market rates.
No account or KYC is required for swaps. SecureShift is non-custodial — you send ETH from your wallet and receive BTC directly in your Bitcoin wallet. Only unusually large or high-risk transactions may require additional verification under our AML policy.
Yes. The displayed rate is all-in. SecureShift service fees and estimated network fees for both Ethereum and Bitcoin are included. There are no hidden charges, what you see is exactly what you receive.
With a floating rate, the rate locks in when SecureShift receives your ETH deposit. With a fixed rate, the rate is locked for 20 minutes after you create the order — guaranteeing the exact BTC amount you'll receive regardless of market movement. Fixed rate is strongly recommended for swaps above 1 ETH.
Common reasons include: portfolio rebalancing toward Bitcoin's long-term store-of-value properties, reducing exposure to Ethereum's execution-layer risk after DeFi activity, moving value into cold storage more easily (Bitcoin hardware wallet support is the most mature), or accessing the Bitcoin Lightning Network for payments. ETH is an active-use asset; BTC is a settlement asset — and sometimes you want settlement.
Yes. SecureShift fully supportsBTC to ETH swaps with the same non-custodial, no-account process. The reverse swap typically completes within 10–30 minutes.
