KAS to BTC (Lightning): questions and answers

How do I swap KAS to BTC (Lightning) without KYC?

Enter the KAS amount on this page, paste your BTC address and send your KAS 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 KAS 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 KAS to BTC rate for the amount you enter.

What are the minimum and maximum for KAS to BTC (Lightning)?

The minimum is about 138 KAS and the maximum about 43,138,833 KAS. 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 KAS to BTC (Lightning) swap take?

Usually 5 to 30 minutes. Most of that is waiting for your KAS deposit to confirm on Kaspa, which takes under a minute. There is no verification step, so nothing else adds to the wait.

Is swapping KAS 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 Kaspa 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 KAS 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 Kaspa network fee to send the deposit.

Can I swap BTC (Lightning) back to KAS?

Yes. The reverse direction, BTC (Lightning) to KAS, 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.
