Ethereum (ETH Optimism) → Bitcoin (BTC)

Q: What rate does ETH Optimism to BTC run at?

As of Sep 30, 2026 10:40 it is 1 ETH Optimism = 0.0320832 BTC. The figure updates on its own, and the calculator always shows the current one. On the market that is around $2,672.08.

Q: What amounts does ETH Optimism → BTC accept?

From 0.0374734 to 3,740 ETH Optimism per order. The floor is roughly $100.09.

Q: Why can I not swap less than 0.0374734 ETH Optimism?

The network fee and the handling do not depend on the amount. On a transfer below 0.0374734 ETH Optimism they eat a noticeable share of it, and the swap stops making sense for either side.

Q: Is anything charged on top of the rate?

No. The payout is already worked out at the rate in the calculator. Separately you pay only the network fee for sending ETH Optimism, and the blockchain takes that one.

Q: How long does swapping ETH Optimism for BTC take?

The clock starts with confirmations: as soon as Optimism confirms your transfer, the order goes out for payout with no operator involved. After that the timing is set by how busy the network is — which is the difference between quick and instant. A block in Optimism closes in about 2 sec.

Q: Will real BTC be credited, or a wrapper?

Real. BTC is the Bitcoin network's own coin, and transfers inside it are paid for with the same coin.

Q: Is BTC needed to receive BTC?

No: fees in Bitcoin are charged in the same BTC, so there is no second coin to hold.

Q: Which network will BTC arrive in?

Bitcoin arrives in its own Bitcoin network — a plain BTC address is all you need.

Q: What happens if the rate moves while I am paying?

Nothing: the rate is locked in the order and holds for as long as the order is alive. It is recalculated only if the payment arrives late or for a different amount — so send the exact sum, and send it promptly.

Q: What did the ETH Optimism to BTC rate do over the month?

Over the month, plus 2.15%: a low of 0.0308277, a high of 0.0326846, an average of 0.0317598 BTC per 1 ETH Optimism.

Funds swap OP Mainnet (Optimism) for Bitcoin, and what comes out is real BTC, not a wrapper around it. There is no wallet to connect anywhere.
