BTC → AVAX: From Bitcoin to Avalanche C-Chain, No Wrappers

Q: What rate does BTC to AVAX run at?

As of Sep 17, 2026 22:13 it is 1 BTC = 10,117.17 AVAX. The figure recalculates on its own, and the calculator always shows the fresh one. In dollars that is around $76,688.12.

Q: 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 BTC, and that one goes to the blockchain, not to us.

Q: How long does BTC to AVAX take?

The clock starts with confirmations: the order goes into work once Bitcoin confirms your transfer. After that it comes down to how busy the network is. A block in Bitcoin closes in about 10 min.

Q: Which network will AVAX arrive in?

Avalanche leaves in its own Avalanche C-Chain network — a plain AVAX address is all you need.

Q: 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.

Q: Will native AVAX arrive, or a wrapper?

Native. AVAX is the network's own coin in Avalanche C-Chain, and its fees are paid in it too.

Q: Do I need AVAX to receive AVAX?

No. Fees in Avalanche C-Chain are paid in AVAX, so no separate coin is needed.

Q: What did the BTC to AVAX rate do this month?

The month came in at minus 0.25%. Low 9,795.73, high 10,922.01, middle 10,406.68 AVAX per BTC.

Q: Can I go back, AVAX to BTC?

Yes, the reverse direction is open: 1 AVAX = 0.000099639 BTC. The link sits right under the calculator.

One BTC buys 10,117.17 AVAX right now; the other way round, 1 AVAX is 0.0000988419 BTC. Market over 24 hours: BTC against AVAX minus 3.5%. The week added minus 0.9%.

How the BTC → AVAX order runs

Work out the amount in the calculator and press the exchange button.
Enter a AVAX address in Avalanche C-Chain and a way to reach you.
Send BTC in Bitcoin for exactly the amount stated in the order.
Once the network confirms your transfer, Avalanche leaves for your address. The order page tracks every step.

Swap BTC for AVAX

Check this before sending BTC

The address network is Avalanche C-Chain. Sending through another network usually means losing the transfer.
Copy the address whole, then compare the first and last characters after pasting.
Ethereum, Arbitrum, Optimism, BNB Smart Chain and Polygon all use the same address shape (0x…). Make sure the wallet is switched to Avalanche C-Chain.
Coins go through an AML check: a flagged transfer can be held until the check is finished.

How this differs from a classic bridge

	RubyCash	Classic bridge
What lands at your address	native AVAX in Avalanche C-Chain	Usually a wrapper like WBTC, which then has to be swapped
Wallet and signatures	Not needed: the coins go to the address from the order	Needed: connect the wallet and sign contract transactions
A coin for fees in Avalanche C-Chain	Not needed to receive	Often needed, or the funds cannot be claimed or moved on
Timing	After confirmations in Bitcoin; the order page tracks it	Depends on the bridge and the load of both networks
Who holds the funds meanwhile	RubyCash for the life of the order, with an AML check	The bridge contract or its validators
