Swap USDC to BTC
This page converts USD Coin (USDC) into Bitcoin (BTC). You’ll send USDC from your wallet on the network you select, and you’ll receive BTC to your chosen Bitcoin address. Bitcoin supports multiple address formats (legacy, SegWit, Taproot), and you can receive to any of them.
What you need before you start
- A Bitcoin receiving address — choose the format your wallet supports:
bc1…(SegWit),bc1p…(Taproot),1…(legacy), or3…(P2SH). :contentReference[oaicite:9]{index=9} - USDC on the right network — USDC exists on multiple chains; the “network” you pick in the swap must match the USDC you’re sending. :contentReference[oaicite:10]{index=10}
- Network fee coin (if required) — on ERC-20 / BEP-20, token transfers use gas paid in the chain’s native coin.
USDC networks & address formats (practical guide)
On Ethereum (ERC-20), USDC uses a 0x… address. On BNB Chain (BEP-20), it also uses 0x….
The visual format can be identical, so your wallet/exchange network selection is what defines the chain. :contentReference[oaicite:11]{index=11}
Modern wallets often use SegWit bc1… or Taproot bc1p… addresses.
Legacy formats (1…) still exist, but many users prefer modern formats for efficiency. :contentReference[oaicite:12]{index=12}

You can pastebc1…,bc1p…,1…, or3…. :contentReference[oaicite:13]{index=13} - 3) Send USDC to the deposit address shown in your order
After you confirm, the order displays a one-time deposit address for USDC on your selected chain. Send the exact amount requested. After the deposit confirms and the conversion completes, BTC is sent to your address automatically.
Fees & timing (what to expect on each side)
Token transfers (USDC) depend on the selected chain’s fee mechanics, while BTC payout depends on Bitcoin’s block confirmations. Bitcoin confirmations average ~10 minutes per block, with natural variance across time windows. :contentReference[oaicite:14]{index=14}
- USDC deposit fee: paid on the USDC chain (gas / native coin mechanics).
- Swap fee: included in your quote before confirmation.
- BTC payout timing: depends on the service’s payout broadcast and Bitcoin network conditions.
