How it works
Swap BTC to ETH in three steps.
No accounts, no waiting. Tell Cambio what you want, send your BTC, and the ETH lands in your wallet in under a minute.
02
Send BTC to the deposit address
Cambio generates a one-time deposit address on Bitcoin. Send your BTC there — Bitcoin typically confirms in 10–60 minutes, and the card tracks every confirmation in real time.
03
ETH arrives on Arbitrum
After confirmation, Cambio settles ETH straight to your destination address on Arbitrum, which confirms in seconds. The receipt card shows the completed payout and the transaction hash.

Why this pair behaves the way it does
Bitcoin is a UTXO chain: your BTC deposit has to be mined, and until it confirms it can still be replaced. Cambio waits confirmations before sending your ETH, so the Bitcoin side sets the pace here, not the Arbitrum side.

The two coins
What you’re actually swapping.
Two different assets, two different on-chain stories. Here’s the minimum you should know before you send anything.
BTC
Bitcoin native
BTC is the original settlement asset. Sending BTC is an ordinary native transfer — no token approval, no contract interaction. Bitcoin typically confirms in 10–60 minutes, and no contract address — BTC is the chain itself.

- Average block time~10-minute blocks
ETH
Arbitrum native
ETH is the same ETH, living on Ethereum's leading rollup. Sending ETH is an ordinary native transfer — no token approval, no contract interaction. Arbitrum confirms in seconds, and gas on Arbitrum is paid in ETH too — just far less of it.

Questions
BTC to ETH on Arbitrum — frequently asked.
Is this a bridge swap?
No. Your BTC goes to a Cambio deposit address on Bitcoin as an ordinary transfer, and you receive ETH on Arbitrum as an ordinary Arbitrum transaction. No bridge contract, no wrapped assets, no cross-chain messages.
How long does the swap take?
The deposit side on Bitcoin typically confirms in 10–60 minutes; the payout on Arbitrum confirms in seconds. The status card tracks every stage live — detection, confirmation, payout — so you are never guessing which side you are waiting on.
Do I need to verify my identity?
No account or sign-up is needed. Every swap is screened against sanctions and on-chain risk lists before a deposit address is issued; in line with applicable law and our risk-based AML policy, identity verification may be requested where screening flags elevated risk.
What is the maximum I can swap?
There is no fixed per-swap cap. The most you can send on this pair is shown in the table above and recalculated on every quote, so it always reflects what we can settle right now.
Can I receive the ETH into an exchange account?
Yes — on the exchange’s deposit screen pick ETH and make sure the network is Arbitrum, then paste that deposit address into the Cambio composer as your destination. If the network on the exchange side doesn’t match, don’t send — ask the AI and it will walk you through it.
Why use Cambio for this pair?
Every quote ships with a live comparison against the biggest instant exchanges — including when we lose — and the number on the card is the number that settles. Pricing is chain-aware, the route has no bridge exposure, and screening happens before your deposit, never after.
