## Bitcoin Cash to Ether: from a payments chain to Ethereum apps

BCH to ETH moves funds from Bitcoin Cash, a low-fee fork of Bitcoin built for on-chain payments, to Ethereum, where smart contract apps and tokens run. It suits BCH holders who want to use Ethereum apps or rebalance without depositing on an exchange. You receive native ETH at your own 0x address, with no account.

Bitcoin Cash targets a block about every 10 minutes, so the deposit usually takes 10 to 20 minutes to be credited and most swaps finish in 20 to 60 minutes. BCH blocks are rarely full, so a standard wallet fee is normally enough to make the next block. The ETH payout then confirms on Ethereum in about 2 to 5 minutes.

### Tips

- Paste an Ethereum address (0x plus 40 hex characters) from MetaMask, Rabby or a Ledger. The ETH is paid on mainnet.
- Send BCH from Electron Cash, Cashonize or another wallet you control and enter its CashAddr address (bitcoincash:q or q) as the refund address. A Bitcoin (BTC) address cannot take a BCH refund.
- Multi-coin wallets often list Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash side by side. Check that you are sending from the Bitcoin Cash account.

### Can I exchange BCH for ETH without KYC?

Yes. A standard swap needs no account, email or ID. Paste your Ethereum address, check the floating rate and send the Bitcoin Cash.

### How long does BCH to ETH take?

Usually 20 to 60 minutes. Most of it is the Bitcoin Cash deposit waiting for a block; the ETH payout then confirms in about 2 to 5 minutes.

## FAQ

### How much is 1 BCH in ETH?

At 12 Oct 2026, 12:51 UTC, 1 BCH swapped to about 0.108591 ETH on GhostSwap, after the service fee. The minimum for this pair is about 0.11 BCH. The Bitcoin Cash network fee for sending the BCH is paid separately, in BCH. The rate floats with the market until your BCH deposit confirms.

### Can I send BCH straight to my ETH address?

No. BCH moves on Bitcoin Cash and ETH on Ethereum, so BCH can only be sent to a Bitcoin Cash address. To swap, send the BCH to the one-time deposit address GhostSwap shows, and the ETH is paid to the Ethereum address you enter, with no bridge or wrapped token.

### What wallet and address do I need to receive ETH?

Use an Ethereum address from a wallet you control, such as MetaMask, Rabby or a Ledger. The address starts with 0x followed by 40 hexadecimal characters. GhostSwap never holds your funds: the ETH is sent straight to the address you enter.

### What happens if my BCH to ETH exchange fails?

If a swap cannot be completed, the BCH is refunded to the Bitcoin Cash address you entered as the sender address.
