How to swap Bitcoin to Monero
Bitcoin to Monero is one of the most requested privacy swaps. Anonymous Swap lets you exchange BTC → XMR without signing up or uploading identity documents.
Why BTC → XMR
Bitcoin is highly liquid and easy to acquire. Monero keeps amounts and counterparties confidential on-chain. Moving value from BTC into XMR is a straightforward privacy step when you want less public transaction graph exposure.
Step-by-step
Use the Anonymous Swap interface:
- Choose BTC to send and XMR to receive.
- Enter your Monero address and BTC amount.
- Create the order and send the exact BTC amount to the deposit address.
- After Bitcoin confirmations, the exchange pays out XMR to your wallet.
Timing
Bitcoin confirmation time is usually the longest wait. Once the deposit confirms, exchanging and Monero payout are typically quick. Overall, plan for roughly 5–20+ minutes depending on network conditions.
FAQ
Do I need KYC to swap BTC to XMR?
No. Anonymous Swap never requests KYC for swaps.
Can I reverse the swap later?
Yes — you can also swap XMR back to BTC when you need liquidity, still without an account.
