Why people swap ETC to BCH.
Pragmatic blockchain migration. Post-The Merge, Ethereum miners moved to Ethereum Classic to preserve proof-of-work and immutability. Swapping ETC to BCH allows these miners to further diversify their holdings while maintaining the principles they believe in.
Philosophical alignment. For those who prioritize decentralization and immutability, swapping ETC to BCH offers a principled alternative to the pragmatic approach taken by the Ethereum network. This swap reflects a commitment to the original vision of Ethereum.
Payment efficiency. Bitcoin Cash's sub-cent fees make it ideal for everyday transactions and micropayments. By swapping ETC to BCH, users can take advantage of the cost-effectiveness and widespread acceptance of BCH for small transactions.
Long-term speculation. Speculators can use ETC to hedge against potential changes in the Ethereum network or to bet on the continued growth and adoption of the Bitcoin Cash network.
About the assets.
Ethereum Classic is the original Ethereum chain, pre-DAO fork. It remains proof-of-work and follows a fixed monetary policy with a maximum supply of 210 million coins. Originally known for its immutability and philosophical alignment with the principles of blockchain technology.
Bitcoin Cash is a fork of Bitcoin, created in August 2017 over the block size debate. With 32MB blocks compared to Bitcoin's ~4MB, Bitcoin Cash offers sub-cent fees making it practical for everyday transactions and micropayments. It is widely adopted for payments and remittances, with strong merchant adoption.
Questions people ask.
01 What's the current ETC to BCH exchange rate?
Right now 1 ETC equals about BCH. The rate updates every 60 seconds on this page. The exact amount you'll receive is locked at the moment your ETC arrives at the deposit address.
02 How long does an ETC to BCH swap take?
Average end-to-end time is about 5 minutes. Ethereum Classic typically requires 13 seconds per block, but exchanges often require many confirmations due to historical 51% attack risks. You can track progress in real time on the swap page.
03 Which ETC networks are supported?
SwapHub supports ETC on the Ethereum Classic mainnet. This network is known for its proof-of-work consensus mechanism and fixed monetary policy. Transactions are confirmed within approximately 13 seconds per block.
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 BCH and gas on your chosen ETC 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 BCH at the locked rate. Sending a different coin to the ETC address is recoverable but requires contacting support.
08 Can I swap ETC to BCH 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 ETC to BCH swaps on SwapHub?
ETC swaps on SwapHub use the Ethereum Classic mainnet, while BCH swaps use the Bitcoin Cash mainnet.
