Bitcoin → Monero
Bitcoin in, native Monero out. Keep BTC available for your sending wallet’s network fee and use an XMR receiving address. The BTC deposit remains on the public Bitcoin ledger; receiving Monero does not erase that history.

Why people swap Bitcoin for Monero
Most BTC to XMR swaps come from people who bought Bitcoin on an exchange and want to hold or spend a coin whose transactions are not visible to the public. Monero hides sender, receiver and amount by default, so it is the usual choice for private savings, private payments and for people who dislike having their whole balance readable from one address. Others swap a small amount just to try a Monero wallet with real coins.
How long it takes
Bitcoin adds a block roughly every ten minutes. Your deposit is credited after network confirmations, so allow ten to thirty minutes for the Bitcoin side, longer if you chose a low fee and the mempool is busy. Once the deposit is confirmed, processing is done by a person, then the Monero payout is sent. Monero blocks arrive about every two minutes and most wallets show the funds as unlocked after ten confirmations, roughly twenty minutes.
Wallet and address details
Send from any Bitcoin wallet that lets you set the fee and see the transaction ID. The receiving address must be a Monero address: a long string starting with 4 or 8, about 95 characters. Your Monero wallet may show a primary address and subaddresses; either works. Cake Wallet, Feather, Monerujo and the official GUI wallet all display one; Ledger and Trezor Model T users get one through the official GUI. Never paste a Bitcoin address into the receiving field for this direction.
Fees at a realistic amount
Say you send 0.01 BTC and the market value is about 1,000 USD. The standard service fee is 0.5%, which is 5 USD at that size; when a promotion is running the widget shows the lower rate instead. Add your own Bitcoin network fee, set in your wallet, and the Monero network fee, which is usually a few cents. The receive amount in the widget already reflects the service fee and the payout fee, so what you see is what arrives.
Common mistakes on this route
- Sending from an exchange withdrawal that uses Lightning or a wrapped BTC network instead of the Bitcoin mainnet.
- Sending less than the quoted amount because the wallet deducted its network fee from the total.
- Leaving the Monero wallet closed for days and assuming the payout failed because the balance still reads zero. Open the wallet and let it sync.
- Expecting the Bitcoin deposit to become private. It stays on the public Bitcoin ledger; only the Monero side is shielded.

A swap does not erase transaction history. Privacy depends on both networks and how the wallets are used.
No. Send BTC on Bitcoin and receive XMR at a Monero address. Keep enough BTC for your wallet’s sending fee; the exchange amount and your wallet’s fee are separate.
