Pick BTC as your "send" coin, paste your ETH wallet address, and hit swap. CoinVast finds you a rate (a flat 2% spread, locked the moment you create the swap), shows you a deposit address, and once the Bitcoin network confirms your transaction (2 confirmations, roughly 20 minutes), your freshly minted ETH arrives in your wallet. Minimum send is 0.0002 BTC. The whole thing takes about as long as brewing a decent cup of coffee, and nobody asks for your passport.

Bitcoin invented the idea that money can live on the internet without a bank behind it. Ethereum took that idea, strapped a rocket to it, and said "what if money could also run programs?" Both networks are enormous, but they do fundamentally different things, and at some point most people holding BTC realize they need some ETH in their life too.
The BTC to ETH pair is the single most traded non-stablecoin swap in crypto for a reason. Bitcoin is where you store value; Ethereum is where you actually do things with it. Lending, borrowing, minting, voting, playing games that somehow involve cartoon animals. All of that runs on ETH, and if your stack is 100% Bitcoin, you're sitting in the lobby of a building with a thousand floors.
In 2026 the gap between the two ecosystems has only gotten wider in terms of what you can do on each chain. Ethereum's rollup ecosystem (Arbitrum, Optimism, Base, and a dozen more) has brought fees down to fractions of a cent for most transactions, which means your freshly swapped ETH goes a lot further than it used to. Meanwhile Bitcoin is still Bitcoin: steady, predictable, and excellent at being digital gold.
Swapping between the two shouldn't require a selfie, a utility bill, and three business days of "verification." CoinVast handles the BTC to ETH route through a non-custodial flow. You keep your keys, you keep your privacy, and you keep your ETH.
Confirmation counts and minimums above are the live values our exchange engine uses, not marketing copy. Block times are network averages and can vary.
Choose how much BTC you are sending. The card quotes your ETH payout with the spread and network fee already counted in. Paste the Ethereum address the payout should land at, plus an optional BTC refund address in case the swap cannot complete.
You get a deposit address on the Bitcoin network. Send your BTC to it from any wallet, in one payment of at least 0.0002 BTC. No account, no email, nothing to install.
Your deposit needs 2 confirmations on Bitcoin, about 20 minutes. We screen it before the exchange starts, then send ETH to your address and post the transaction hash on your order page.
The most common reason is access to DeFi. If you want to lend your crypto, earn yield, or provide liquidity on Uniswap or Aave, you need ETH (or an Ethereum based token). Bitcoin can't natively interact with any of that. Swapping a slice of your BTC into ETH is literally the entrance fee to the largest financial playground in crypto.
Portfolio rebalancing is the second big driver. The BTC/ETH ratio shifts constantly, and traders who watch it closely swap back and forth to capture the spread. When Bitcoin rallies hard and ETH lags, seasoned holders rotate some profit into Ethereum, betting on mean reversion. When ETH heats up, they do the reverse. The BTC to ETH pair is their steering wheel.
NFTs and on-chain culture still live almost entirely on Ethereum and its Layer 2s. Whether you're collecting art, flipping profile pictures, or registering an ENS domain, you pay in ETH. If your entire net worth is in Bitcoin and you spot a mint you love, you're going to need a quick swap, not a three day withdrawal from an exchange.
Gas fees are a real, practical expense. Every transaction on Ethereum costs a bit of ETH, so even if you hold tokens or NFTs on the network, you need a base layer of ETH just to move things around. Think of it like needing coins for the parking meter. A small BTC to ETH swap keeps your wallet functional without selling your entire position.
Some people simply believe in diversification. Bitcoin and Ethereum have different risk profiles, different development roadmaps, and different communities. Holding both is a way of saying "I think decentralized money matters AND I think programmable blockchains matter" without having to pick a side. The BTC to ETH swap is the bridge between those two convictions.
0.0002 BTC. That's roughly twenty dollars depending on the current price, so you don't need to commit a fortune to test the waters. Paste your ETH address, send the minimum, and see how the flow works before going bigger.
The Bitcoin network needs 2 confirmations before CoinVast processes your swap, which typically takes around 20 minutes. After that, your ETH is sent to your wallet and usually arrives within a couple of minutes. Total time from click to ETH in hand is roughly 20 to 30 minutes under normal network conditions.
No and no. CoinVast is a non-custodial swap service. You provide your ETH receiving address, send BTC to a deposit address, and the swap executes. No email, no selfie, no "please upload a government issued ID." CoinVast does run automated pre-screening on transactions for compliance, but you never create an account.
CoinVast quotes one rate at a flat 2% spread, and it locks in the moment you create the swap. That means you know exactly how much ETH you'll get up front, regardless of what the market does while your BTC transaction confirms on the blockchain. There's no separate floating option and no estimate that drifts: the rate you see is the rate you get.
Absolutely. The reverse pair (ETH to BTC) works the same way. Minimum send is 0.005 ETH, and Bitcoin delivery requires the standard confirmation time on the BTC network. Same no-KYC, non-custodial flow.
If you send below 0.0002 BTC, the swap cannot be processed. In most cases the amount can be refunded, but network fees for returning dust amounts on Bitcoin can eat into the refund significantly. Best practice: always send at or above the minimum shown on the swap page.
Any wallet where you control the private keys. Hardware wallets (Ledger, Trezor), software wallets (MetaMask for receiving ETH, Electrum or Sparrow for sending BTC), mobile wallets, even multi-sig setups. CoinVast doesn't care what wallet you use as long as the BTC arrives at the deposit address and you provide a valid ETH address for receiving.
Setting it up takes under a minute. The blockchain handles the rest.
