Why people swap ARB to ETC.
Maximizing DeFi efficiency. SwapHub allows you to convert ARB, the leading Ethereum Layer 2 with full EVM compatibility, into ETC, the original Ethereum chain. This lets you access DeFi protocols like GMX and Camelot directly on ETC, taking advantage of Arbitrum’s low fees and high throughput.
Historical mining legacy. After the Ethereum merge, many miners shifted to ETC due to its commitment to proof-of-work and immutability. By swapping ARB to ETC, you can join the community of miners and supporters who value traditional consensus mechanisms.
Fixed supply philosophy. Ethereum Classic maintains a fixed monetary policy with a hard cap of 210 million coins, making it attractive for those who prefer stable and predictable economics. Swapping ARB into ETC aligns with this philosophy.
Access to unique ecosystems. ETC offers a distinct ecosystem with its own set of projects and applications. By swapping ARB to ETC, you gain access to a community that values decentralization and immutable code, fostering a unique user experience.

Questions people ask.
01 What's the current ARB to ETC exchange rate?
The current ARB to ETC exchange rate is influenced by market demand and supply. Right now, 1 ARB is approximately equal to ETC. The rate updates every 60 seconds on this page. The exact amount you'll receive is locked at the moment your ARB arrives at the deposit address.
02 How long does an ARB to ETC swap take?
An average ARB to ETC swap takes about 5 minutes. The main variable is the confirmation time on the Arbitrum network — typically 0.25 seconds on L2, but final L1 settlement may take up to 7 days for exchanges requiring many confirmations due to historical risks. You can track progress in real time on the swap page.
03 Which ARB networks are supported?
SwapHub supports ARB on the main Arbitrum One network and the gaming/social Arbitrum Nova network. Pick whichever network your source wallet holds ARB on — the cheapest option is highlighted automatically.
04 What is the minimum and maximum amount?
Minimums vary by pair and are shown before you confirm — typically around $10–$20 equivalent. There's no hard maximum — larger orders may be split across providers automatically for the best rate.
05 Float rate vs Fixed rate — which should I pick?
Float gives you the best available rate at the moment your deposit arrives (usually a slightly better number, subject to movement). Fixed locks the rate when you create the order, costing about 0.4% extra — worth it for large amounts or when the market is moving fast.
06 Is there a fee on top of the exchange rate?
SwapHub charges no extra fee on top of the displayed rate — our margin is already included in what you see. You'll also pay the network fee for ETC and gas on your chosen ARB network.
07 What happens if I send the wrong amount?
If you send less than the minimum, the order pauses and you can add a top-up. If you send more than the estimate, you'll automatically receive the extra ETC at the locked rate. Sending a different coin to the ARB address is recoverable but requires contacting support.
08 Can I swap ARB to ETC inside Telegram?
Yes. @swapHUB_com_bot opens a Telegram Mini App with the same flow, same rates, same providers. Convenient for mobile users who already live in Telegram.
09 Is SwapHub regulated? Where is it based?
SwapHub operates as a non-custodial interface that routes orders across multiple licensed exchange providers. We don't custody funds, so the regulatory model is closer to an aggregator than an exchange. For jurisdiction-specific questions, see the Terms.
10 What are the supported networks for swapping ARB to ETC?
Swaps from ARB to ETC can be made between Arbitrum One and Ethereum Classic mainnets.
