Networks and wallets for XLM to BCH
Stellar mainnet
Copy any memo provided with the Stellar deposit address. A service can require a specific memo type and value to credit a shared account.
Bitcoin Cash mainnet
Generate a Bitcoin Cash receive address, preferably in the wallet’s CashAddr format where the provider accepts it. Check the asset and network even if a legacy address looks like a Bitcoin address.
Check XLM deposit and BCH payout availability separately. The live service needs to accept your source network and offer the destination network that your BCH wallet expects.
How to convert XLM to BCH
- Check that a live provider quotes your XLM deposit network and the BCH payout network you need.
- Compare the amount of BCH 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 XLM transaction reference, then verify the BCH payout in your receiving wallet.
How to compare XLM to BCH rates
For a rough pre-fee estimate, multiply the XLM amount by the rate expressed in BCH per XLM. Then compare the actual BCH payout for the same XLM 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.
