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.

RUNE

What is THORChain?

By providing liquidity pools for various cryptocurrencies, THORChain facilitates cross-chain transactions without the need for centralized exchanges. RUNE is the native token used for governance, staking, and securing the network.

BTC to RUNE: questions and answers

Everything you need to know about exchanging BTC to RUNE on GhostSwap.

How long does it take to swap BTC to RUNE on GhostSwap?
Most BTC to RUNE swaps are paid out within 20–60 minutes: the BTC deposit needs 10–30 minutes (1–3 confirmations) to confirm on Bitcoin, then the RUNE is sent to your wallet, and THORChain confirms the payout in under a minute. Busy networks can add a few minutes.
How much is 1 BTC in RUNE?
1 BTC is worth about 122,929.75 RUNE at the market rate, before fees (market prices, 21 Oct 2026). GhostSwap's quote in the exchange box already includes the service fee and the RUNE network fee. The rate floats with the market until your BTC deposit confirms, so the exchange box shows the exact amount before you send.
Do I need KYC or an account to exchange BTC to RUNE?
No. GhostSwap has no accounts: you paste the THORChain address that should receive the RUNE, send BTC from your own wallet, and the RUNE goes straight to that address. No email, phone number or ID upload.
What are the fees for converting Bitcoin to THORChain?
The GhostSwap fee is already included in the rate in the exchange box, so the RUNE amount you see is what you receive. On top of that, the Bitcoin network fee for your deposit is paid in BTC by your wallet.
What wallet should I use to receive RUNE?
To receive THORChain from your swap, we recommend using Vultisig, Keplr or Trust Wallet. Make sure your wallet supports the THORChain network before starting the exchange. Double-check your RUNE address before confirming, cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.
What format is the RUNE address?
Use a THORChain address: it starts with thor1. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand.
Can I track my BTC to RUNE swap?
Yes. After initiating your swap, GhostSwap provides a transaction status page where you can monitor progress in real-time. You can also track your BTC payment on mempool.space (https://mempool.space) and your incoming RUNE on RuneScan (https://runescan.io).
Is it safe to exchange BTC for RUNE on GhostSwap?
GhostSwap is non-custodial: there is no account balance holding your coins. Your BTC deposit is converted and the RUNE is sent straight to the THORChain address you enter, so check that address twice, THORChain transfers cannot be reversed.
How does a cross-chain BTC to RUNE swap work?
Bitcoin lives on Bitcoin and THORChain on THORChain, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your BTC on Bitcoin and pays native RUNE on THORChain, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees.
What happens if my BTC to RUNE exchange fails?
If a swap cannot be completed, the BTC is refunded to the Bitcoin address you entered as the sender address. If something looks stuck, contact support with your swap ID from the status page. Most problems come from sending a different amount than shown or using an address on the wrong network.
