Swap Bitcoin to Ether

No account, no email, no verification: measure a dose of Bitcoin, paste the ETH address the distillate goes to, and the lab does the rest.

Both sides settle on their own chain: Bitcoin needs 1–2 confirmations (10–20 min) before the lab sees the deposit, then Ether is delivered within a few blocks (1–3 min).

Once the deposit confirms on Bitcoin, distillation starts and the ETH lands in your flask without any further action on your side.

The process

How to swap BTC for ETH

  1. I

    Measure the BTC

    Enter how much Bitcoin you pour and the ETH address the distillate goes to — an address on Ethereum mainnet. The estimate updates before you commit.

  2. II

    Pour into the athanor

    Send exactly that dose from any wallet to the deposit address, on Bitcoin mainnet. The furnace lights at the first confirmation (1–2 confirmations (10–20 min)).

  3. III

    Collect the ETH

    The lab distills and delivers to your flask on Ethereum mainnet. About 25 minutes end to end, confirmations included.

Questions

BTC → ETH, answered

More in the codex, or write to the lab.

How long does a BTC to ETH swap take?

About 25 minutes for the median batch. Most of it is waiting for 1–2 confirmations (10–20 min) on Bitcoin; the delivery on Ethereum is quick once distillation starts.

What is the minimum amount of BTC?

About 0.00052 BTC (about $40) at today's prices. Below that, network fees would eat the distillate, so the batch pauses until you top up or ask for a return.

Is the rate fixed?

Yes. The expected ETH output is engraved when you seal the batch and holds until the expiry shown on the deposit page. A deposit that arrives after expiry is handled at the live formula or returned, and you are told which.

Do I need an account or ID to swap BTC for ETH?

No. There is no account, no email and no identity check. The batch number you receive is the only way to find the batch again, so keep it.

Which network must the ETH address be on?

A Ethereum mainnet address. ETH on another network is a different token with a different address format; the lab delivers only on Ethereum mainnet for this pair.

What if I send BTC on the wrong network?

The deposit address listens on Bitcoin mainnet only. Tokens sent on another chain are not seen by the athanor; some can be recovered by a technician for a handling fee, many cannot. When in doubt, send a small test dose first.
