How to convert Ethereum to Bitcoin Cash

The widget above is already set to ETH on Ethereum → BCH on Bitcoin Cash. The whole swap runs in one flow through NEAR Intents:

Step 1: Choose how to pay
Connect any EVM wallet such as MetaMask or Rabby that holds your ETH. 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 Ethereum for refunds.

Step 2: Enter the amount and where to receive
Type how much ETH to swap and the Bitcoin Cash address that receives the BCH, from a Bitcoin Cash wallet such as Electron Cash or Paytaca. The widget shows how much BCH 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 Ethereum, solvers fill the swap and the BCH is sent to your address on Bitcoin Cash. If the swap can't be filled, your ETH is refunded.

Prefer to keep a balance inside NEAR Intents? The Deposit tab adds ETH 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 BCH to an exchange instead, check that it accepts BCH on Bitcoin Cash: some exchanges don't credit deposits that come from a smart contract.

About the ETH → BCH swap

This is a cross-chain swap: your ETH leaves Ethereum and BCH arrives on Bitcoin Cash. 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 BCH on Bitcoin Cash, ready to use there with no second bridging step.

Both ETH and BCH float against the dollar, so the ETH/BCH 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 Ethereum and Bitcoin Cash

What is Ethereum (ETH)?

Ether (ETH) powers Ethereum, a programmable blockchain proposed by Vitalik Buterin in 2013 and launched in July 2015 by a group of co-founders. Rather than acting only as money, Ethereum runs smart contracts, which let developers deploy applications that execute exactly as written.

How Ethereum works

Since the Merge in September 2022, Ethereum has been secured by Proof of Stake: validators lock up ETH, propose and attest to blocks, and can lose part of their stake for misbehaviour. Every operation on the network costs gas, paid in ETH: the base fee is burned, while validators receive a priority fee for including transactions.

What ETH is used for

ETH pays for transaction fees and is widely used as collateral in decentralized finance, from lending protocols to decentralized exchanges. Holders also stake it to help secure the network and earn protocol rewards.

ETH supply

Ether has no fixed maximum supply. New ETH is issued to validators, while the base fee of every transaction is burned under EIP-1559, so net supply can rise or fall depending on network activity.

Before you swap ETH

Make sure your withdrawal goes to an address on Ethereum mainnet and not to a layer-2 or another EVM network that uses the same address format. Gas prices on Ethereum fluctuate with demand, which can affect the cost of moving ETH in or out.

What is Bitcoin Cash (BCH)?

Bitcoin Cash (BCH) split from Bitcoin on 1 August 2017 after a long debate over how to scale the network. Its supporters wanted Bitcoin to grow on-chain as everyday electronic cash rather than as a settlement layer, so the new chain kept Bitcoin's history up to the split and then took its own path toward bigger blocks and low fees.

How Bitcoin Cash works

BCH is mined with SHA-256 Proof of Work and targets one block every ten minutes, like Bitcoin. Since May 2024 an adaptive algorithm sets the block size limit according to demand, and network upgrades on 15 May each year have added native tokens (CashTokens, 2023), high-precision arithmetic (2025) and loops and functions for smart contracts (2026).

What BCH is used for

BCH is used for peer-to-peer payments and merchant checkouts, where a typical network fee of less than a cent matters. CashTokens also let developers issue fungible tokens and NFTs directly on the chain.

BCH supply

Bitcoin Cash keeps Bitcoin's monetary rules: issuance is capped at 21 million BCH, and the block reward halves every 210,000 blocks, roughly every four years.

Before you swap BCH

Bitcoin Cash addresses come in the CashAddr format (bitcoincash:q... or p...) and in a legacy format starting with 1 or 3 that looks exactly like a Bitcoin address, so make sure the destination is a BCH wallet before withdrawing. Blocks arrive about every ten minutes, so allow some time for a deposit to confirm.

What to know before swapping Ethereum for Bitcoin Cash

Use the widget on this page, already set to ETH on Ethereum → BCH on Bitcoin Cash: connect your wallet or pay by QR code, enter the amount and your Bitcoin Cash address, and confirm. NEAR Intents swaps it and sends the BCH to that address in one flow, and the widget shows the exact amount you will receive before you confirm.
