The figure is indicative; the exact amount is locked in the order.
Today BCH goes for 0.090603 ETH Optimism, and ETH Optimism goes for 11.0372 BCH. Market over 24 hours: BCH against ETH Optimism minus 1.23%. The week added minus 10.24%.
The weekly corridor ran from 0.0881887 to 0.101093 ETH Optimism, a spread of 14.63%. A single order takes 0.05 to 45,300 BCH. In dollars that is roughly $11.04.
The payout leaves in the Optimism network, so the receiving address has to belong to that network. By market cap Bitcoin Cash sits 23th ($4.44 B) and Ethereum 2th ($297.7 B). Daily moves of BCH and ETH over 90 days line up at 0.63 (they travel alike).
Who takes the BCH → ETH Optimism route
- Fuel for OptimismWithout Ethereum nothing moves in Optimism — every transfer and every contract call is paid in it.
- Different basketsDaily moves of BCH and ETH over 90 days line up at 0.63 (they travel alike) — the looser the link, the less a portfolio depends on one coin.
- A road both waysThe ETH Optimism → BCH direction is open too, so going back into BCH takes the same route.

Payout network for ETH
The same ETH goes out in several networks. Rates and lower limits differ, and the fee is charged by the network itself.
| Network | Per BCH | From | Network fee | Speed |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Arbitrum One | 0.090603 | 0.05 BCH | ≈ $0.001 | fast |
| BNB Smart Chain (BEP20) | 0.090603 | 0.05 BCH | ≈ $0.0024 | fast |

How the BCH → ETH Optimism order runs
- Work out the amount in the calculator: orders start at 0.05 BCH.
- Enter a ETH address in Optimism and a way to reach you.
- Send BCH in Bitcoin Cash for exactly the amount stated in the order.
- Once the network confirms your transfer, Ethereum leaves for your address. The order page tracks every step.
Check this before sending BCH
- The address network is Optimism. Sending through another network usually means losing the transfer.
- The transfer must not be smaller than 0.05 BCH.
- Copy the address whole, then compare the first and last characters after pasting.
- Coins go through an AML check: a flagged transfer can be held until the check is finished.

Common questions: BCH → ETH Optimism
What rate does BCH to ETH Optimism run at?
As of Sep 17, 2026 10:03 it is 1 BCH = 0.090603 ETH Optimism. The figure recalculates on its own, and the calculator always shows the fresh one. In dollars that is around $220.96.
What amounts does BCH → ETH Optimism accept?
From 0.05 to 45,300 BCH per order. The lower limit is roughly $11.04.
Where does the 0.05 BCH floor come from?
Network fees and order handling eat a small transfer alive — below 0.05 BCH the swap stops making sense for either side.
What else is taken on top of the rate?
The payout is already calculated at the rate in the calculator. On top of it you only pay the network fee for sending BCH, and that one goes to the blockchain, not to us.
How long does BCH to ETH Optimism take?
The clock starts with confirmations: the order goes into work once Bitcoin Cash confirms your transfer. After that it comes down to how busy the network is. A block in Bitcoin Cash closes in about 10 min.
Which network will ETH Optimism arrive in?
The payout leaves in Optimism. Make sure the receiving wallet works with that network.
Where is receiving ETH cheaper?
The cheapest is usually ETH Arbitrum, ETH BEP20, ETH Optimism. Still, the network is chosen by what the recipient supports, not by the fee.
What if the rate moves while I am paying?
The rate is pinned to the order and does not move while the order is alive. It can be recalculated if the payment arrives late or for a different amount — so send the exact sum, and send it promptly.
What did the BCH to ETH Optimism rate do this month?
The month came in at minus 16.65%. Low 0.088809, high 0.114558, middle 0.101732 ETH Optimism per BCH.
Can I go back, ETH Optimism to BCH?
Yes, the reverse direction is open: 1 ETH Optimism = 11.0781 BCH. The link sits right under the calculator.
