BTC to ARB: questions and answers
How do I swap BTC to ARB without KYC?
Enter the BTC amount on this page, paste your ARB address and send your BTC 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 ARB is paid directly to your wallet.
What is the BTC to ARB 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 BTC to ARB rate for the amount you enter.
What are the minimum and maximum for BTC to ARB?
The minimum is about 0.000064 BTC and the maximum about 20 BTC. 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 BTC to ARB swap take?
Usually 5 to 30 minutes. Most of that is waiting for your BTC deposit to confirm on Bitcoin, which takes about 10-30 minutes (1-2 confirmations). There is no verification step, so nothing else adds to the wait.
Is swapping BTC to ARB anonymous?
AltoSwap does not know who you are (no account, no email, no identity checks) and the default route uses no-KYC exchanges. Both Bitcoin and Arbitrum One 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 ARB address should I use?
Your ARB is paid on Arbitrum One. Use an address that starts with 0x and is 42 characters long. 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 BTC to ARB rate?
Everything. The exchange's spread, the Arbitrum One 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 Bitcoin network fee to send the deposit.
Can I swap ARB back to BTC?
Yes. The reverse direction, ARB to BTC, 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.
