Whether you are rebalancing, taking profit or moving into a new asset, swapping Ethereum Classic (ETC) to Bitcoin (BTC) on SecureShift takes just a few clicks. There is no sign-up and no identity verification — you send ETC from your own wallet and receive BTC in yours, at a real-time market rate.
Traders swap ETC to BTC to rebalance a portfolio, follow momentum, or simply because they need BTC for long-term savings, treasury reserves and settlement of large amounts. Ethereum Classic and Bitcoin run on completely separate blockchains, so a direct ETC to BTC swap on SecureShift saves you the deposit, trade and withdrawal steps of a centralised exchange — and the KYC that usually comes with it.
How to Swap ETC to BTC on SecureShift
- Choose the pair. Select ETC in the “You send” field and BTC in the “You get” field, then enter the amount of ETC you want to swap. The estimated BTC payout updates in real time.
- Pick a rate type. A floating rate follows the market and is usually slightly better; a fixed rate locks your BTC amount for the duration of the swap so price swings cannot affect it.
- Enter your Bitcoin address. Paste the Bitcoin address (bc1…, 1… or 3…) where you want to receive BTC. Optionally add a refund address for ETC.
- Send your ETC. SecureShift generates a one-time Ethereum Classic deposit address. Send the exact amount from your wallet.
- Receive BTC. After the required network confirmations, the swap is executed and BTC is sent to your wallet. Track every step on the order page and in a block explorer.
What Is Ethereum Classic (ETC)?
Ethereum Classic (ETC) is the original Ethereum chain that kept running unchanged after the 2016 DAO fork, secured by Proof of Work and committed to the “code is law” principle. SecureShift supports ETC on its native Ethereum Classic network, so you send and receive it with a regular ETC wallet address.
What Is Bitcoin (BTC)?
Bitcoin is the original cryptocurrency and still the largest by market capitalisation. With a hard cap of 21 million coins and the most secure Proof-of-Work network in existence, BTC is treated by most investors as digital gold — a long-term store of value and the base pair for the entire crypto market.

How Long Does a ETC to BTC Swap Take?
Most ETC to BTC exchanges complete in about 5–30 minutes. The biggest factor is how quickly your ETC deposit is confirmed: the Ethereum Classic network network has a block time of varies by network, and SecureShift waits for the required network confirmations before releasing funds. Once the swap is executed, BTC is broadcast on Bitcoin, where blocks arrive every about 10 minutes. Busy network periods or a low fee on your deposit can add some time — you can always follow progress live on the order page.
ETC to BTC Fees and Rates
SecureShift has no hidden charges. The service fee is already included in the rate you see before you confirm, so the BTC amount shown is what you should expect to receive (on a fixed rate it is guaranteed). The only other costs are the blockchain fees: a network fee paid in ETC when you send ETC, and the Bitcoin fee for delivering your BTC, which is also built into the quote.
Tips for a Safe ETC to BTC Exchange
- Copy your ETC address directly from your wallet and verify the first and last characters before confirming the order.
- Double-check that your BTC wallet is set to a normal on-chain address — Lightning invoices are not the same thing as a Bitcoin address.
- Send ETC only on the network shown on the order page (Ethereum Classic network). Deposits on another chain are not detected automatically.
- Send the deposit within the order time window, especially if you chose a fixed rate.
- Always add a refund address — if anything goes wrong, your ETC can be returned without contacting support.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. SecureShift is non-custodial: you send ETC from your own wallet and receive BTC directly in yours, so your funds are never held in an exchange account. Every order has a unique deposit address and can be tracked on-chain from start to finish.
Usually 5–30 minutes. The main factor is the confirmation time of your Ethereum Classic deposit (the required network confirmations); after that the BTC payout is sent immediately on Bitcoin.
No. You can swap ETC to BTC without registering and without identity verification. All you need is a Bitcoin wallet address to receive your funds.
The SecureShift fee and the Bitcoin payout fee are already included in the rate shown before you confirm. The only extra cost is the network fee your own wallet charges to send ETC.
A fixed rate locks the amount of BTC you will receive for the duration of the order, protecting you from price moves. A floating rate follows the market until your deposit is confirmed and is usually slightly better, but the final amount can change a little.
If you send more or less ETC than requested on a floating-rate order, the swap is recalculated at the current rate. On a fixed-rate order, a different amount may be recalculated or refunded to your refund address. Contact support with your order ID if you need help.
