How this differs from a classic bridge

What lands at your addressNative BTC or ordinary Bitcoin tokensDepends: in some networks it is the bridged version of the token
Wallet and signaturesNot needed: the coins go to the address from the orderNeeded: connect the wallet and sign contract transactions
A coin for fees in BitcoinNot needed to receiveOften needed, or the funds cannot be claimed or moved on

Moving from Avalanche C-Chain to Bitcoin, step by step

  1. Pick a route in the table above and work out the amount in the calculator on its page.
  2. Enter your own address in Bitcoin (1…, 3…, bc1…).
  3. Send the coins in Avalanche C-Chain to the address from the order, for exactly the amount stated.
  4. Once Avalanche C-Chain confirms the transfer, the coins leave for your address in Bitcoin. The order page tracks every step.

Check this before sending to Bitcoin

  • The receiving address has to belong to Bitcoin (1…, 3…, bc1…).
  • Send the coins in Avalanche C-Chain only: a transfer through another network never reaches the order.
  • Coins go through an AML check: a flagged transfer can be held until the check is finished.
