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 even if the price moves. Best when you need certainty on the exact amount received.
- Floating rate
- The swap executes at the market rate when your ETH deposit lands. Usually pays out slightly 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 SwapRocket
- Aggregated rate comparison. SwapRocket compares quotes across multiple providers so your BTC payout reflects the strongest quote SwapRocket found at that moment — with zero added fees, so you can compare elsewhere before confirming.
- Non-custodial. SwapRocket never holds your ETH or BTC. The Bitcoin is sent straight to the wallet address you provide.
- No account. No SwapRocket account is required to swap ETH for BTC. The selected provider may request identity verification or hold a transaction for review under its own compliance policy, regardless of amount.
- Fixed or floating rate. Lock the ETH/BTC rate at quote time, or use the market rate at execution.
Why swap ETH → BTC
- Move an ETH balance into a Bitcoin wallet you control.
- Prepare BTC for an on-chain Bitcoin payment.
- Keep Bitcoin and Ethereum balances in their respective native networks.
Network fees explained
- Sending ETH
- Sending ETH requires gas paid in ETH on the selected network. The fee changes with network conditions. Do not use your full ETH balance if that leaves nothing to pay for the deposit transaction.
- Receiving BTC
- The provider broadcasts the payout on the destination network; applicable provider spreads and network costs are reflected in the quoted amount. You do not need an existing BTC balance just to receive it. Use a Bitcoin on-chain address rather than a Lightning invoice. Future sends will incur Bitcoin miner fees.
Best wallets for BTC
- Sparrow Wallet. Desktop Bitcoin wallet with address and hardware-wallet controls.
- BlueWallet. Mobile Bitcoin wallet; use its on-chain receiving address for a Bitcoin-network payout.
Verify the destination address and network before confirming — crypto transfers are irreversible.

What's the minimum ETH to BTC swap?
Minimums are set by the underlying liquidity provider and shown live before you confirm a quote.
Which networks should I select for ETH to BTC?
Match the source network to the funds in your sending wallet and the destination network to what the receiving wallet supports. Only use networks offered in the current quote. Do not deposit another coin or network into the address shown in the order.

How do fixed and floating ETH to BTC quotes differ?
A fixed quote is subject to the provider's deposit deadline, exact amount and other conditions. A floating quote can change before settlement. Compare the receive amount and the terms shown for your order; neither option guarantees a better result in every case.
Do I need identity documents for this swap?
SwapRocket does not require an account or identity documents to start a crypto-to-crypto swap. Individual providers may still apply AML, sanctions, fraud-prevention or identity checks depending on the provider, transaction and jurisdiction. Review those conditions before sending.
