Swap Tether to Bitcoin

Pour Tether, collect Bitcoin. The athanor engraves the formula the moment you start, so the amount shown is the amount delivered.

Because USDT tracks the dollar, the quote reads almost like a price for Bitcoin: the formula you see is what one dollar of USDT buys in BTC, fee included, sealed when you start.

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

The process

How to swap USDT for BTC

  1. I

    Measure the USDT

    Enter how much Tether you pour and the BTC address the distillate goes to. The estimate updates before you commit.

  2. II

    Pour into the athanor

    Send exactly that dose from any wallet to the deposit address, on Ethereum (ERC-20). The furnace lights at the first confirmation (depends on the network).

  3. III

    Collect the BTC

    The lab distills and delivers to your flask on Bitcoin mainnet. About 11 minutes end to end, confirmations included.

Questions

USDT → BTC, answered

More in the codex, or write to the lab.

How long does a USDT to BTC swap take?

About 11 minutes for the median batch. Most of it is waiting for depends on the network on Ethereum; the delivery on Bitcoin is quick once distillation starts.

What is the minimum amount of USDT?

About 21 USDT (about $20) 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 BTC 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 USDT for BTC?

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 BTC address should I give?

Any BTC address you control on Bitcoin mainnet, including an exchange deposit address. Double-check it: the lab cannot recall a distillate once it is sent.

What if I send USDT on the wrong network?

The deposit address listens on Ethereum (ERC-20) 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.
