Exchange in 3 steps

Set the ETH amount and paste your Bitcoin payout address on Bitcoin mainnet.

Create the order to lock the quote and see the deposit address.
-
Send ETH to that deposit. After confirmations, BTC is paid to your wallet.
Before you broadcast
- ERC-20 on zkSync Era confirmations are usually fast.
- Send ETH on ERC-20 on zkSync Era only — not other L1/L2s unless your order says otherwise.
- Leave enough native gas token in your wallet for network fees.
- BTC not visible yet? Wait a few minutes, resync your wallet, then contact support with your order ID if the payout tx is already listed.
Ethereum on zkSync Era
Always match ETH on ERC-20 on zkSync Era when you send or receive — wrong-network transfers may not be credited.
Before you send
Use a wallet that supports ERC-20 on zkSync Era.
Verify the deposit network on your order page matches your wallet.
Bitcoin — the original digital asset
Since 2009, Bitcoin has been the benchmark cryptocurrency — deep liquidity, wide recognition, and the default on-ramp for cross-chain swaps.
When is my BTC spendable?
After your payout transaction receives the confirmations shown on the order page — typically one or more blocks depending on route.
Checking your BTC payout
- Open the order page and copy the payout transaction hash into a Bitcoin block explorer.
- Confirm the destination address matches your wallet exactly — including case and format.
- Most wallets show incoming BTC after one confirmation; some exchanges wait for more.

Frequently asked questions
Is identity verification required to trade ETH for BTC?
No. HideSwap operates as an anonymous no-KYC crypto exchange — no profile, no ID upload, and no funded account for Ethereum → Bitcoin.
How long is a ETH → BTC order?
Typical completion is a few minutes. ERC-20 on zkSync Era and Bitcoin mainnet confirmation times set the pace.
Do you custody ETH or BTC?
No. You send ETH yourself and BTC is paid to the address you enter — HideSwap does not keep a wallet balance for you.
What if I pick the wrong ETH network?
Match the network printed on the order (ERC-20 on zkSync Era). A mismatch can strand the deposit — check the swap safety notes first.
