Why people swap ETH to ETC.
Philosophical divergence. Ethereum Classic preserves the original blockchain, immutability, and PoW consensus. After The Merge, miners moved here to continue proof-of-work mining. Speculators swap ETH to ETC for a principled stance against centralization and to support a pure PoW chain.
DeFi and NFT compatibility. Ethereum Classic supports ERC-20 tokens, DeFi protocols like Uniswap, and NFT marketplaces. Swapping ETH to ETC allows users to participate in the ETC ecosystem while maintaining their core values.
Cost-effective staking. ETC offers competitive staking rewards with a fixed monetary policy, making it an attractive option for long-term staking. The 4-5% APY on ETC staking is higher than many other proof-of-stake chains.
The world computer revisited. By swapping ETH to ETC, users can engage with a decentralized network that emphasizes security, immutability, and community-driven development. This aligns with the ethos of the 'world computer' concept, where programmable money is more than just a currency.
About the assets.
Ethereum is the leading smart contract platform, with over 60% of all DeFi TVL and thousands of decentralized applications. Launched in 2015, it is the original blockchain for programmable money.
Ethereum Classic is the original Ethereum chain, pre-DAO fork. It remains a Proof-of-Work (PoW) network and is known for its immutability and 'code is law' philosophy. Launched in 2016, it has a fixed monetary policy with a maximum supply of 210 million.
Questions people ask.
01 What's the current ETH to ETC exchange rate?
The current exchange rate for 1 ETH to ETC is approximately 260.4852. The rate updates every 60 seconds on this page. The exact amount you'll receive is locked at the moment your ETH arrives at the deposit address.
02 How long does an ETH to ETC swap take?
An average ETH to ETC swap takes around 5 minutes. The main variable is the confirmation time on the Ethereum network, which typically requires 12-20 confirmations (~3-5 minutes). You can track progress in real time on the swap page.
03 Which networks are supported for ETH?
SwapHub supports ETH on Ethereum mainnet, Arbitrum, Optimism, Base, and zkSync. These networks all use ETH as their gas token. Pick whichever network your source wallet holds ETH on — the cheapest option is highlighted automatically.
04 What is the fee structure?
Charges no extra fee on top of the displayed rate. You'll pay the network fee for ETC and gas on your chosen ETH network. Typical fees range from $0.50 to $15 on mainnet and less than $0.10 on L2s (Arbitrum, Base).
05 Do I need to create an account or pass KYC?
No. SwapHub is non-custodial and accountless. You never give us an email, you never upload ID. Some liquidity providers may ask for verification on unusually large orders — if that applies, you'll see it before committing funds.
06 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 ETH address is recoverable but requires contacting support.
07 Can I swap ETH 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.
08 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.
09 What networks support ETH to ETC swaps?
ETH can be swapped to ETC from Ethereum mainnet (ERC-20) and other Ethereum-compatible networks like Arbitrum, Optimism, Base, and zkSync. The swapped tokens will be in the Ethereum Classic mainnet.
10 Are there any hidden fees during the ETH to ETC swap process?
SwapHub charges no extra fees during the ETH to ETC swap process. However, transaction fees may apply on the Ethereum and Ethereum Classic networks.
