Swap WBTC from Ethereum to USDC on Solana

Swap WBTC from Ethereum to USDC on Solana. You send WBTC, an Ethereum token, and you receive Circle USDC on Solana.

WBTC is 0x2260FAC5E5542a773Aa44fBCfeDf7C193bc2C599. You approve that ERC-20. Etherscan shows it on chain id 1. It is not a coin on the Bitcoin network. Gas is ETH, and blocks are about 12 seconds. Circle's SPL USDC is EPjFWdd5AufqSSqeM2qN1xzybapC8G4wEGGkZwyTDt1v. Match it on Solscan. Phantom or Solflare holds the mint. There is no ERC-20 approval on Solana. Keep SOL so the USDC is not stuck.

Diagram for Swap WBTC from Ethereum to USDC on Solana
WBTC leaves Ethereum. USDC is what can arrive on Solana.

WBTC stays an Ethereum token until it is spent

The only input is 0x2260FAC5E5542a773Aa44fBCfeDf7C193bc2C599. A Bitcoin wallet cannot sign this route, and a Bitcoin address cannot receive the result. You need ETH next to the WBTC for gas. Eight-decimal WBTC is easy to misread against six-decimal USDC if you compare raw integers. Use the amounts on the quote.

Circle USDC is the Solana result

The mint EPjFWdd5AufqSSqeM2qN1xzybapC8G4wEGGkZwyTDt1v is Circle, not Tether. Solscan is where you verify it. Ethereum USDC will not increase when this payout lands. There is no ERC-20 approval on Solana. Phantom or Solflare needs a little SOL before that USDC can be transferred. The USDC itself does not pay the fee.

A Bitcoin address cannot be either side

If the request was to pay someone on the Bitcoin chain, this page is the wrong tool. If you wanted SOL or Tether, it is also the wrong tool. Selling WBTC for USDC on Ethereum is enough when Solana was not required. Read how bridges move funds before you move a large WBTC balance. The quote does not lock dollars.

Eight decimals against six

WBTC uses eight decimals. Solana USDC uses six. The quote shows human amounts so you do not have to rescale them by hand. The minimum USDC is the floor. ETH gas is extra and is paid on chain id 1. A block near 12 seconds does not promise the mint is already visible on Solscan. Sign from the wallet that holds this WBTC contract.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best way to swap WBTC from Ethereum to USDC on Solana?

WBTC is 0x2260FAC5E5542a773Aa44fBCfeDf7C193bc2C599. You approve that ERC-20. XAUConnect compares live routes and lets your own wallet sign.

Can I deposit bitcoin from a Bitcoin wallet into this page?

No. The input is WBTC on Ethereum, contract 0x2260FAC5E5542a773Aa44fBCfeDf7C193bc2C599, which you approve and which Etherscan can show. Coins on the Bitcoin chain are invisible here. The payout is Circle USDC at EPjFWdd5AufqSSqeM2qN1xzybapC8G4wEGGkZwyTDt1v on Solscan. Phantom or Solflare receives it. There is no ERC-20 approval on Solana.

Does this redeem WBTC back to the Bitcoin network?

No. Redemption through WBTC's own issuer is a different process. This page sells the Ethereum token and delivers Circle USDC on Solana. If your goal is bitcoin in a Bitcoin address, you are on the wrong tool. You also still need ETH for gas and SOL after the USDC arrives.

What if I approve a different token that also says BTC?

That approval will not start this swap. Only 0x2260FAC5E5542a773Aa44fBCfeDf7C193bc2C599 is the WBTC contract for this route. Check the full string on Etherscan. The Solana side is only the USDC mint EPjFWdd5AufqSSqeM2qN1xzybapC8G4wEGGkZwyTDt1v. A copied ticker is not close enough. Phantom or Solflare will not treat a lookalike as this route.
