ARB to BTC (Lightning): questions and answers
How do I swap ARB to BTC (Lightning) without KYC?
Enter the ARB amount on this page, paste your BTC address and send your ARB to the deposit address shown. AltoSwap has no accounts and asks for no identity documents, and it routes your swap through exchanges rated A for KYC, meaning providers that do not run identity checks. The BTC is paid directly to your wallet.
What is the ARB to BTC (Lightning) exchange rate?
The rate moves with the market every few seconds and depends on the amount. The calculator at the top of this page requests live quotes from 20+ exchanges and shows the best current ARB to BTC rate for the amount you enter.
What are the minimum and maximum for ARB to BTC (Lightning)?
The minimum is about 22.5 ARB and the maximum about 7,043,811 ARB. Limits vary slightly between exchanges and follow market prices; the form tells you immediately if your amount is outside the range.
How long does a ARB to BTC (Lightning) swap take?
Usually 5 to 30 minutes. Most of that is waiting for your ARB deposit to confirm on Arbitrum One, which takes about a minute. There is no verification step, so nothing else adds to the wait.
Is swapping ARB to BTC (Lightning) anonymous?
AltoSwap does not know who you are (no account, no email, no identity checks) and the default route uses no-KYC exchanges. Both Arbitrum One and Lightning Network are public ledgers, though, so the transactions themselves are visible on-chain. For on-chain privacy, swap into a privacy coin such as Monero.
Which BTC address should I use?
Your BTC is paid on Lightning Network. Use an address that is a Lightning invoice (lnbc...). Always use an address in a wallet you control and double-check the first and last characters before sending.
What fees are included in the ARB to BTC (Lightning) rate?
Everything. The exchange's spread, the Lightning Network network fee for the payout and any service commission are already inside the quoted rate, so the amount shown is what you receive: exactly on a fixed rate, approximately on a floating rate. You only pay your own Arbitrum One network fee to send the deposit.
Can I swap BTC (Lightning) back to ARB?
Yes. The reverse direction, BTC (Lightning) to ARB, works the same way and has its own page and live rate on AltoSwap. Each direction is quoted independently, so the two rates are not exact mirrors of each other.
