BTC to BCH: moving value to Bitcoin's 2017 fork

Bitcoin Cash split from Bitcoin in August 2017 after a dispute over block size. It keeps Bitcoin's coin model but uses larger blocks for low-fee payments, and it never adopted SegWit. BTC to BCH suits Bitcoin holders who want coins for small on-chain payments, where Bitcoin fees would take a larger share. The BCH is paid to your own address, with no account.

Both chains aim for a block about every 10 minutes. Most of the wait is the Bitcoin deposit collecting 1 to 3 confirmations, often 10 to 30 minutes, so most BTC to BCH swaps finish in 20 to 60 minutes. A deposit sent with a very low fee can sit in the Bitcoin mempool for longer, and the swap waits for it.

Tips for this swap

  • A bc1 address cannot receive BCH, because Bitcoin Cash never added SegWit addresses. Paste the CashAddr address, starting with bitcoincash:q or q, from your Bitcoin Cash wallet.
  • Multi-coin wallets list Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash as separate accounts with different addresses. Copy the one labelled Bitcoin Cash.
  • Send BTC from your own wallet, not an exchange withdrawal, and enter that address as the refund address.

Can I swap Bitcoin to Bitcoin Cash with no KYC?

Yes. GhostSwap needs no account, email or ID for a standard swap. Paste your Bitcoin Cash address, check the floating rate and send the BTC.

I bought my Bitcoin after 2017. Do I already own BCH?

No. Only coins held in Bitcoin addresses at the August 2017 split were copied to the Bitcoin Cash chain. Bitcoin bought later has no BCH counterpart, so a swap is how you get BCH for it.

BTC

What is Bitcoin?

Bitcoin (BTC) is the world's first and largest cryptocurrency, created in 2009 as a decentralized digital currency that operates without banks or intermediaries. Running on a proof-of-work blockchain, Bitcoin enables peer-to-peer value transfer across borders with no central authority. Many holders keep BTC as a long-term store of value. With the largest market capitalization and deepest liquidity of any cryptocurrency, Bitcoin is the most commonly exchanged digital asset.

BCH

What is Bitcoin Cash?

Bitcoin Cash (BCH) is a cryptocurrency that forked from Bitcoin in 2017, increasing the block size limit to enable more transactions per block and lower fees. BCH was created to fulfill Bitcoin's original vision as peer-to-peer electronic cash — fast, cheap, and suitable for everyday payments. With larger blocks and lower fees than BTC, Bitcoin Cash processes transactions more quickly and affordably, making it practical for retail purchases and remittances. BCH maintains the same proof-of-work security model as Bitcoin.
