About exchanging Bitcoin to Monero
Bitcoin is transparent by design. Every transaction, address balance and payment history sits on a public ledger that anyone can read and analyze. People swap BTC to XMR when they want their funds to live on a chain that does not expose that information. Monero hides the sender, receiver and amount of each transaction on its blockchain by default, using ring signatures, stealth addresses and RingCT.
BreezeSwap is non-custodial and requires no account or sign-up. You get a one-time Bitcoin deposit address for your order, send BTC to it, and the XMR payout goes directly to the Monero address you provide. KYC is not required for most swaps, but liquidity partners may request verification, e.g. if a deposit is flagged by risk screening.
Keep in mind what the swap does and does not change. Your Bitcoin deposit remains visible on the Bitcoin blockchain, and what happens after the XMR arrives depends on how you use your wallet. Most exchanges take 5 to 30 minutes, and the Bitcoin confirmation is usually the slowest step.
Tips for this pair
- Bitcoin blocks arrive about every 10 minutes on average, and your deposit usually needs 1 to 2 confirmations before the exchange proceeds. Choosing a reasonable miner fee helps avoid long delays when the network is busy.
- Use a Monero wallet where you control the seed, such as the official GUI or CLI wallet or another open-source wallet. Standard Monero addresses start with 4, subaddresses with 8, and a fresh subaddress per swap keeps incoming payments separate.
- Received XMR becomes spendable after 10 confirmations, which takes about 20 minutes at Monero's roughly 2-minute block time. Seeing the payout as locked at first is normal.
- Fixed rate locks the XMR amount while the countdown runs, as long as you send the exact BTC amount shown. Floating rate follows the market until your deposit is processed.
- For an extra routing step between deposit and payout, see Private Swap.

Our service fee of up to 0.4% is already included in the exchange rate, and there are no additional fees. The network fee for sending your XMR payout is also included in the estimated amount. The only extra cost is the network fee your own wallet charges when you send BTC.
If a fixed rate is available for this pair, select "Fixed Rate" in the calculator. The amount of XMR you receive is then locked while the countdown on your order page runs, provided you send exactly the quoted amount of BTC.
With a floating rate, a different amount within the limits is usually exchanged at the current rate. With a fixed rate, it may be exchanged at the current rate or refunded. For a refund or any problem, contact support via live chat or tickets@breezeswap-io.p.tawk.email with your Exchange ID.
