Networks and wallets for DAI to WBTC
Ethereum mainnet (ERC-20 DAI)
Check that the deposit calls for DAI on Ethereum and that your wallet holds DAI itself. USDS has a separate contract and requires a conversion before it can be sent as DAI.
Ethereum mainnet (ERC-20 WBTC)
Use an Ethereum account that supports the WBTC contract for an Ethereum payout. If you need spendable BTC on Bitcoin mainnet afterward, budget for a separate conversion or redemption.
Use the exact DAI network when comparing quotes. The number of WBTC units a given deposit can buy changes with the market, so compare how much WBTC will arrive after fees.
How to convert DAI to WBTC
- Check that a live provider quotes your DAI deposit network and the WBTC payout network you need.
- Compare the amount of WBTC 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 DAI transaction reference, then verify the WBTC payout in your receiving wallet.
How to compare DAI to WBTC rates
For a rough pre-fee estimate, multiply the DAI amount by the rate expressed in WBTC per DAI. Then compare the actual WBTC payout for the same DAI amount and network. Check whether the withdrawal fee comes out of what you send or is charged separately.
