USDC to Bitcoin: from Circle's ERC-20 dollar to native BTC

USDC to BTC is for people holding USD Coin on Ethereum who want bitcoin instead, for example to move part of a stablecoin balance into BTC for the long term or to pay someone who only accepts bitcoin. USDC is a dollar stablecoin issued by Circle; bitcoin has no issuer and runs on its own network. GhostSwap pays native BTC to your Bitcoin address, with no account and no wrapped token.

The USDC transfer pays gas in ETH and usually confirms in about 2 to 5 minutes, so the BTC is typically sent 10 to 25 minutes after you pay. Your Bitcoin wallet shows the payout at once as unconfirmed, and the first confirmation comes with the next block, about 10 minutes on average. Bitcoin fees are paid in BTC itself, so moving the payout later needs no second coin, unlike the ETH your USDC needed.

Tips for this swap

Paste a receive address from Sparrow, Electrum or a hardware wallet. Native SegWit (bc1q), Taproot (bc1p), 3 and 1 addresses all work; a fresh one per swap keeps receipts apart.
Send the USDC from MetaMask, Rabby or a Ledger with some ETH left for gas, and enter that 0x address as the refund address.
USDC on Base, Arbitrum or Solana? This pair accepts only USDC on Ethereum, so pick that network's USDC as the coin you send instead of bridging it first.

Can I swap USDC to Bitcoin without KYC?

Yes. Swapping USDC for BTC takes no account, email or ID. Paste your Bitcoin address, review the floating rate shown before you send and transfer the USDC from your own wallet; a refund, if needed, goes back to that 0x address.

How can I tell I am sending real USDC?

Look at the token contract in your wallet or on Etherscan. Circle's USDC on Ethereum is 0xA0b86991c6218b36c1d19D4a2e9Eb0cE3606eB48. Look-alike tokens can copy the name and symbol, but not that contract address.

What is USD Coin (USDC) on Ethereum?

USD Coin (USDC) on Ethereum is a regulated stablecoin pegged 1:1 to the US Dollar, issued by Circle. Unlike algorithmic stablecoins, USDC is backed by cash and short-term US Treasury bonds, with regular attestations of reserves. USDC is widely used across DeFi protocols for lending, borrowing, and providing liquidity, and is accepted as payment by a growing number of merchants. As an ERC-20 token, USDC benefits from Ethereum's vast ecosystem but incurs gas fees for transfers.

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.
