Receive THETA in your wallet and follow the status page with your swap ID. ## Bitcoin to THETA, and why you also need TFUEL THETA is the coin staked in Theta Network's validator and guardian nodes and used in its governance. Theta is a blockchain for video, media and AI computing, and it is home to the EdgeCloud platform. BTC to THETA is for Bitcoin holders who want to take part in Theta staking, with native THETA paid on Theta mainnet to the address you enter and no account. Bitcoin confirmations take most of the time, usually 10 to 30 minutes, and Theta credits the payout shortly after it is sent. Most swaps finish in 20 to 60 minutes. Theta charges every transaction in TFUEL, its second coin, so a wallet holding only THETA has nothing to pay fees with. ### Tips - Paste your Theta Wallet address (0x plus 40 hexadecimal characters). It looks like an Ethereum address, but a wallet set to Ethereum will not show native THETA. - Put some TFUEL at the same address before you stake or send the THETA. If you have none, BTC to TFUEL is a separate pair. - Send BTC from your own wallet and enter that address as the refund address. ### Can I swap BTC to THETA without KYC? Yes. No account, email or ID is needed for a standard swap. Paste your Theta address, check the floating rate and send the Bitcoin. ### Does the THETA arrive on Ethereum? No. THETA moved from an ERC20 token to its own mainnet in 2019, and this pair pays native THETA there. Use a wallet that supports Theta mainnet to see it. ## FAQ ### How long does it take to swap BTC to THETA on GhostSwap? Most BTC to THETA swaps are paid out within 20–60 minutes: the BTC deposit needs 10–30 minutes (1–3 confirmations) to confirm on Bitcoin, then the THETA is sent to your wallet, and Theta Network confirms the payout in a few minutes. Busy networks can add a few minutes. ### How much is 1 BTC in THETA? 1 BTC is worth about 371,663.11 THETA at the market rate, before fees (market prices, 4 Oct 2026). GhostSwap's quote in the exchange box already includes the service fee and the THETA network fee. The minimum for this pair is about 0.00036 BTC. The rate floats with the market until your BTC deposit confirms, so the exchange box shows the exact amount before you send. ### What are the fees for converting Bitcoin to THETA? The GhostSwap fee is already included in the rate in the exchange box, so the THETA 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 THETA? To receive THETA from your swap, we recommend using Theta Wallet. Make sure your wallet supports the Theta Network network before starting the exchange. Double-check your THETA address before confirming — cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed. ### What format is the THETA address? Use a Theta Network address: it starts with 0x followed by 40 hexadecimal characters. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand. ### Can I track my BTC to THETA 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 THETA on Theta Explorer (https://explorer.thetatoken.org). ### Is it safe to exchange BTC for THETA on GhostSwap? GhostSwap is non-custodial: there is no account balance holding your coins. Your BTC deposit is converted and the THETA is sent straight to the Theta Network address you enter, so check that address twice — Theta Network transfers cannot be reversed. ### How does a cross-chain BTC to THETA swap work? Bitcoin lives on Bitcoin and THETA on Theta Network, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your BTC on Bitcoin and pays native THETA on Theta Network, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees. ### What happens if my BTC to THETA 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. ## Related - [Reverse: THETA to BTC](https://ghostswap.io/exchange/theta-btc/) ([Markdown](https://ghostswap.io/exchange/theta-btc.md)) - [All GhostSwap pairs](https://ghostswap.io/exchange/) - [How to exchange](https://ghostswap.io/how-to-exchange/) - [Site guide for AI assistants](https://ghostswap.io/llms.txt)
