Swap Ethereum (ETH) to Bitcoin (BTC)

Swapping Ethereum (ETH) to Bitcoin (BTC) is the classic "take profit into hard money" trade. Instead of routing through a centralised exchange (deposit → sell → withdraw), Monivo compares non-custodial quotes and the provider you select sends native BTC straight to your wallet — no account, no order book, no withdrawal wait.

ETH → BTC routing details

Monivo requests quotes from every connected liquidity provider for this route and shows the one that pays out the most BTC. The amount shown is an estimate that depends on the rate type you pick and the provider's own terms; it is confirmed in the widget above before you send anything, with zero added fees on top of the rate you see. The selected provider receives your deposit and settles the payout.

Fixed rate or floating rate for ETH → BTC?

Fixed rate

The BTC amount is locked when you confirm. The provider carries the market risk while your ETH deposit confirms, so the payout matches the quote as long as you send on time and within the quoted limits. Best when you need certainty on the exact amount received.

Floating rate

The swap executes at the market rate when your ETH deposit lands. It can pay out more BTC than a fixed quote, but the final amount can move up or down while the deposit confirms.

Why swap ETH to BTC on Monivo

  • Aggregated rate comparison. Monivo compares quotes across multiple providers so your BTC payout reflects the strongest quote Monivo found at that moment — with zero added fees, so you can compare elsewhere before confirming.
  • Non-custodial. Monivo never holds your ETH or BTC. The Bitcoin is sent straight to the wallet address you provide.
  • No account. No sign-up and no email for standard ETH/BTC swaps; the executing provider may still request verification.
  • Fixed or floating rate. Lock the ETH/BTC rate at quote time, or use the market rate at execution.

Why swap ETH → BTC

  • Take DeFi or trading profits off Ethereum and into cold BTC storage.
  • Move liquidity to Bitcoin ahead of Ethereum network congestion or gas spikes.
  • Convert airdropped or staking-rewarded ETH into BTC without triggering an exchange KYC threshold.
  • Rebalance a long-only portfolio back toward Bitcoin dominance.

Network fees explained

Sending ETH

Ethereum gas is set by your wallet at broadcast. During calm blocks a simple ETH send is a few dollars; during activity spikes it can be more. Monivo's quoted BTC output is net of provider fees — the gas cost is what your wallet charges to move ETH into the deposit address.

Receiving BTC

The BTC payout is paid on-chain by the routing provider, so no Bitcoin pre-funding is required. You'll receive native BTC on the Bitcoin network — no wrapped tokens.

Fees and pricing

Monivo does not add a separate platform fee. The quoted receive amount reflects the executing provider's pricing and applicable payout costs. Your sending wallet or exchange may charge its own network or withdrawal fee. The amount shown is an estimate; fixed and floating quotes follow the provider's terms.

Monivo does not add a separate platform fee. Some partner quotes include a small affiliate margin that is retained by Monivo as a referral commission; this margin is included in the rate shown, not added on top. Provider spreads and applicable network costs are also reflected in the quoted amount.

Network fees are set by the blockchain, not by Monivo. No account, no subscription and no withdrawal charge. Live support is available 24/7.

ETH → BTC FAQ

How do I swap ETH to BTC?

Enter the amount of Ethereum you want to exchange, paste your Bitcoin wallet address, and confirm the deposit. Monivo aggregates quotes from multiple providers and settles BTC directly to your wallet — no account required.

How long does a ETH to BTC swap take?

Most ETH/BTC swaps complete in 5–20 minutes, depending on Ethereum network confirmation times.

What's the fee to swap ETH to BTC?

Monivo aggregates quotes and routes to the best executable rate. The displayed quote is what you receive — there is no hidden spread. Network fees for Ethereum apply on top.

Do I need an account to exchange ETH for BTC?

No. Monivo is non-custodial — provide a Bitcoin address and swap directly from your wallet.

What's the minimum ETH to BTC swap?

Minimums are set by the underlying liquidity provider and shown live before you confirm a quote.

Will the ETH I send affect what I receive if the market moves?

Only if you choose a floating rate. Fixed rate locks the BTC output at quote time — the provider absorbs the market risk during Ethereum confirmations.

How many confirmations before I receive my BTC?

Providers wait for 1–2 Ethereum confirmations before releasing BTC. Most ETH → BTC swaps complete in 5–15 minutes.

Can I send ETH from a smart-contract wallet (Safe, Argent)?

Yes — any address that can broadcast a standard ETH transfer works. Just double-check the deposit address matches exactly.
