Exchange ETC to BTC

The current exchange rate between ETC and BTC is influenced by market demand and supply dynamics. Right now, 1 ETC is approximately worth BTC. The rate updates every 60 seconds on this page.

An average ETC to BTC swap takes around 5 minutes. This is primarily determined by the confirmation times on the Ethereum Classic network, which can range from 13 seconds per block but often requires many confirmations due to historical 51% attack concerns. You can track the progress in real time on the swap page.

SwapHub currently supports Ethereum Classic on its mainnet. The network typically confirms transactions in about 13 seconds per block, but exchanges generally require more confirmations for security reasons. This means your transaction might take several minutes to finalize.

Minimum amounts vary by pair and are shown before you confirm. Typically, the minimum is around $10–$20 equivalent. There's no hard maximum — larger orders may be split across providers automatically for the best rate.

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.

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 BTC and gas on your chosen ETC network.

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 BTC at the locked rate. Sending a different coin to the ETC address is recoverable but requires contacting support.

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.

ETC swaps on SwapHub support the Ethereum Classic mainnet. For BTC, you can choose between the Bitcoin mainnet with 1-3 confirmations (approximately 10-30 minutes) or the Lightning Network for near-instant transactions with sub-cent fees.
