How to convert Bitcoin to Plasma

The widget above is already set to BTC on Bitcoin → XPL on Plasma. The whole swap runs in one flow through NEAR Intents:

Step 1: Choose how to pay
Connect any Bitcoin wallet that holds your BTC. Or turn on Swap from external wallet to get a deposit address and QR code you can pay from any wallet or exchange; you then add an address on Bitcoin for refunds.

Step 2: Enter the amount and where to receive
Type how much BTC to swap and the Plasma address that receives the XPL, from any EVM wallet such as MetaMask or Rabby. The widget shows how much XPL you will receive, fees included, before you confirm.

Step 3: Confirm and send
Approve the transfer in your wallet, or send the amount to the deposit address. Once it confirms on Bitcoin, solvers fill the swap and the XPL is sent to your address on Plasma. If the swap can't be filled, your BTC is refunded.

Prefer to keep a balance inside NEAR Intents? The Deposit tab adds BTC to it, Swap trades within it, and Withdraw sends tokens out to their own networks.

⚠ Important: receive on an address you control. If you send the XPL to an exchange instead, check that it accepts XPL on Plasma: some exchanges don't credit deposits that come from a smart contract.

About the BTC → XPL swap

This is a cross-chain swap: your BTC leaves Bitcoin and XPL arrives on Plasma. Normally that takes a bridge plus a DEX, or a centralized exchange account. With NEAR Intents the deposit, swap and withdrawal happen in one flow, and what lands in your wallet is XPL on Plasma, ready to use there with no second bridging step.

Both BTC and XPL float against the dollar, so the BTC/XPL rate moves with two markets at once. Traders use this pair to rotate between ecosystems in a single step instead of selling to a stablecoin first.

About Bitcoin and Plasma

What is Bitcoin (BTC)?

Bitcoin is the first decentralized cryptocurrency, described in a 2008 white paper by the pseudonymous Satoshi Nakamoto and brought to life when its network went live in January 2009. BTC is the native unit of that network and moves directly between users without a bank or payment processor in the middle.

How Bitcoin works

Miners compete to add blocks by running SHA-256 hashing hardware in a Proof of Work process, and the chain with the most accumulated work is treated as valid. Every full node independently checks each transaction against the rules, so the ledger's history becomes harder to alter with every block stacked on top.

What BTC is used for

Most holders treat BTC as a long-term store of value and a hedge outside the traditional financial system. It is also used for cross-border transfers, as collateral in lending markets, and as a base trading pair across the crypto industry.

BTC supply

The protocol limits total issuance to 21 million BTC. New coins enter circulation only as block rewards, and that reward is cut in half roughly every four years in an event known as the halving.

Before you swap BTC

Bitcoin blocks arrive about every ten minutes on average, so a BTC deposit can take noticeably longer to confirm than deposits on faster chains. Double-check the receiving address format before withdrawing, since Bitcoin transactions cannot be reversed.

What is Plasma (XPL)?

Plasma is a layer-1 blockchain designed around stablecoin payments, and XPL is its native token. The mainnet beta and the token launched together on 25 September 2025. The team also builds Plasma One, a stablecoin account and card app that runs on the network.

How Plasma works

Plasma reaches consensus with PlasmaBFT, a pipelined version of the Fast HotStuff protocol in which staked validators finalize blocks within seconds, and it executes transactions on an Ethereum-compatible engine built on Reth. Validators that misbehave lose rewards rather than their stake. The network started with a small set of known validators and plans to open validation to the public over time.

What XPL is used for

XPL pays transaction fees on Plasma, which currently accepts gas only in XPL, and it is the stake validators lock to secure the network. Plasma is also building a protocol-run paymaster so apps can let users pay fees in stablecoins instead.

XPL supply

Ten billion XPL existed at the mainnet beta launch. Validator rewards are planned to start at 5% annual inflation and fall by half a percentage point a year to 3%, but they only switch on once external validators and delegation go live. Base fees are burned, as on Ethereum.

Before you swap XPL

XPL arrives as the native coin of Plasma mainnet beta (chain ID 9745) at a standard 0x address, so add the Plasma network to your EVM wallet to see it. Keep some XPL afterwards, since gas on Plasma is currently paid in XPL even when you move stablecoins.
