Stellar to Bitcoin: seconds in, ten-minute blocks out

XLM to BTC suits Stellar holders who want part of their balance in Bitcoin, often to keep on a hardware wallet. Stellar is designed for fast, cheap transfers, while Bitcoin is the coin most wallets and services accept. The BTC goes to the Bitcoin address you enter, with no account.

The XLM deposit is final within seconds once it reaches the deposit address with the right memo, so the swap usually reaches the payout in 5 to 15 minutes. The slow part is the other side: the BTC payout waits for the next Bitcoin block, about 10 minutes on average.

Tips for this swap

  • Paste a Bitcoin address (bc1, 3 or 1) from a wallet you control. If the BTC is for long-term storage, take the address from your hardware wallet's app.
  • If the deposit screen shows a Memo ID, add it to your Stellar payment exactly. It is a number, so if your wallet asks for a memo type, choose ID rather than Text.
  • Send from your own Stellar wallet and enter its G address as the refund address. Stellar accounts keep a minimum balance, so you cannot send every last XLM.

Can I convert XLM to BTC without KYC?

Yes. A standard swap needs no account, email or ID. Paste your Bitcoin address, check the floating rate and send the XLM, with the Memo ID if one is shown.

How long does XLM to BTC take?

Usually 5 to 15 minutes until the BTC is sent, because Stellar confirms the deposit in seconds. After that, the BTC needs to be included in a Bitcoin block, which takes about 10 minutes on average.

XLM

What is Stellar?

Stellar (XLM) is an open-source blockchain network designed for fast, low-cost cross-border payments and asset tokenization. Founded by Jed McCaleb (co-founder of Ripple), Stellar focuses on connecting financial institutions and making money transfers accessible to the unbanked. Transactions on Stellar settle in 3-5 seconds with fees under $0.01, making it one of the most efficient payment networks available. XLM is the native currency used for transaction fees and as a bridge between different currencies. Exchange XLM on GhostSwap to swap Stellar Lumens for any supported cryptocurrency — fast, private, and without KYC verification.

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. You can swap BTC for hundreds of other cryptocurrencies on GhostSwap instantly, with no KYC or account required.

Why Swap XLM for BTC?

XLM to BTC: questions and answers

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

What are the fees for converting Stellar to Bitcoin?
The GhostSwap fee is already included in the rate in the exchange box, so the BTC amount you see is what you receive. On top of that, the Stellar network fee for your deposit is paid in XLM by your wallet.
What wallet should I use to receive BTC?
To receive Bitcoin from your swap, we recommend using Electrum, Sparrow Wallet, or a hardware wallet like Ledger or Trezor. Make sure your wallet supports the Bitcoin network before starting the exchange. Double-check your BTC address before confirming — cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.
What format is the BTC address?
Use a Bitcoin address: it starts with bc1, 3 or 1. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand.
Can I track my XLM to BTC 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 XLM payment on StellarExpert (https://stellar.expert) and your incoming BTC on Mempool.space (https://mempool.space).
Is it safe to exchange XLM for BTC on GhostSwap?
GhostSwap is non-custodial: there is no account balance holding your coins. Your XLM deposit is converted and the BTC is sent straight to the Bitcoin address you enter, so check that address twice — Bitcoin transfers cannot be reversed.
How does a cross-chain XLM to BTC swap work?
Stellar lives on Stellar and Bitcoin on Bitcoin, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your XLM on Stellar and pays native BTC on Bitcoin, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees.
What happens if my XLM to BTC exchange fails?
If a swap cannot be completed, the XLM is refunded to the Stellar 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.
