  • Different basketsDaily moves of ETC and BTC over 90 days line up at 0.71 (they travel together) — the looser the link, the less a portfolio depends on one coin.
  • A road both waysThe BTC → ETC direction is open too, so going back into ETC takes the same route.

  2. Enter a BTC address in Bitcoin and a way to reach you.
  3. Send ETC in Ethereum Classic for exactly the amount stated in the order.
  4. Once the network confirms your transfer, Bitcoin leaves for your address. The order page tracks every step.

Swap ETC for BTC

Check this before sending ETC

  • The address network is Bitcoin. Sending through another network usually means losing the transfer.
  • The transfer must not be smaller than 450 ETC.
  • 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: ETC → BTC

What rate does ETC to BTC run at?
As of Sep 17, 2026 23:58 it is 1 ETC = 0.0000971918 BTC. The figure recalculates on its own, and the calculator always shows the fresh one. In dollars that is around $7.44.
What amounts does ETC → BTC accept?
From 450 to 1,350,000 ETC per order. The lower limit is roughly $3,330.00.
Where does the 450 ETC floor come from?
Network fees and order handling eat a small transfer alive — below 450 ETC 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 ETC, and that one goes to the blockchain, not to us.
How long does ETC to BTC take?
The clock starts with confirmations: the order goes into work once Ethereum Classic confirms your transfer. After that it comes down to how busy the network is.
Which network will BTC arrive in?
Bitcoin leaves in its own Bitcoin network — a plain BTC address is all you need.
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 ETC to BTC rate do this month?
The month came in at plus 1.04%. Low 0.0000925019, high 0.000109748, middle 0.000097587 BTC per ETC.
Can I go back, BTC to ETC?
Yes, the reverse direction is open: 1 BTC = 10,314.57 ETC. The link sits right under the calculator.
