Networks and wallets for BTC to XMR
Bitcoin mainnet
Select an on-chain Bitcoin withdrawal when the provider quotes Bitcoin mainnet. Lightning invoices and wrapped BTC on other chains require separate routes.
Monero mainnet
Copy a public Monero receive address from an XMR wallet. Check the payout in the synced receiving wallet and keep your private view key, spend key and seed private.
Use the Bitcoin transaction ID to follow the deposit, then look for the XMR payout in your synced Monero wallet. A Bitcoin explorer tracks the BTC leg only.
How to convert BTC to XMR
- Check that a live provider quotes your BTC deposit network and the XMR payout network you need.
- Compare the amount of XMR you would receive after fees, then confirm the receiving address and any memo or tag required for your payout.
- If you go ahead, follow the live order’s deposit instructions. Keep the order ID and the BTC transaction reference, then verify the XMR payout in your receiving wallet.
How to compare BTC to XMR rates
For a rough pre-fee estimate, multiply the BTC amount by the rate expressed in XMR per BTC. Then compare the actual XMR payout for the same BTC amount and network. Check whether the withdrawal fee comes out of what you send or is charged separately.
Orbit uses a $100 minimum. The estimate on this page uses reference market prices before fees. An executable quote, including any additional route limits, comes from a live settlement provider.
