Swap WBTC from Ethereum to USDT on Solana

Swap WBTC from Ethereum to USDT on Solana. You send WBTC on Ethereum and you receive Tether USDT on Solana.

Approve 0x2260FAC5E5542a773Aa44fBCfeDf7C193bc2C599. That is the Ethereum token Etherscan lists, not a Bitcoin-chain coin. Chain id 1, gas in ETH, blocks about 12 seconds. Tether's mint on Solana is Es9vMFrzaCERmJfrF4H2FYD4KCoNkY11McCe8BenwNYB. Match it on Solscan. Phantom or Solflare holds it. There is no ERC-20 approval on Solana. Bring SOL so the USDT can move after it arrives.

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

Approve WBTC on Etherscan only

The contract is 0x2260FAC5E5542a773Aa44fBCfeDf7C193bc2C599. Other tickers with bitcoin in the name are not this input. Your Bitcoin wallet cannot approve an ERC-20. Keep ETH for gas. The approval is a separate transaction from the swap, and neither one creates a Bitcoin-network payment. If the coins are still on Bitcoin, stop.

Tether's mint is the payout

Es9vMFrzaCERmJfrF4H2FYD4KCoNkY11McCe8BenwNYB is Tether on Solana. Circle USDC is a different mint. Solscan is the check, not Etherscan, once you are looking for the result. No ERC-20 approval is involved on Solana. USDT will not pay Phantom or Solflare fees. SOL will. Plan that balance before you need to forward the dollars.

Not a redemption and not a USDC hop

This page does not redeem WBTC for bitcoin, and it does not pay Circle. If either of those was the job, you are on the wrong tool. A same-chain sale into USDT on Ethereum also skips Solana when you do not need it. The bridge guide is for the hop you mean to make. The quote does not freeze a Tether amount.

The floor is dollars, the fee is ETH

WBTC can move while you approve and while the block is found. The minimum USDT is the line that matters. ETH gas comes off the Ethereum wallet, not off the Tether. Eight decimals on WBTC versus six on the SPL mint is already handled in the quote, so do not rescale by hand. If the floor is thin, get a new quote or do not sign.

Frequently asked questions

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

Approve 0x2260FAC5E5542a773Aa44fBCfeDf7C193bc2C599. That is the Ethereum token Etherscan lists, not a Bitcoin-chain coin.

Will Etherscan show the USDT I am supposed to receive?

No. Etherscan shows WBTC at 0x2260FAC5E5542a773Aa44fBCfeDf7C193bc2C599 leaving Ethereum. The USDT is Tether's Solana mint Es9vMFrzaCERmJfrF4H2FYD4KCoNkY11McCe8BenwNYB, and Solscan is where you look. Phantom or Solflare holds it. There is no ERC-20 approval on Solana. You need SOL after arrival to move the USDT.

Can the destination be a Bitcoin address if I only want dollars?

No. Dollars on this page are Tether on Solana, not a Bitcoin payment and not an Ethereum USDT balance. A Bitcoin address cannot hold the mint Es9vMFrzaCERmJfrF4H2FYD4KCoNkY11McCe8BenwNYB. If that is the address you were given, this route is the wrong tool. Use a Phantom or Solflare account instead.

Does a confirmed Ethereum transaction lock the USDT amount?

The minimum on the quote you signed is the floor you accepted. It is not a promise about clock time, and a later market move is not reversed by this site. If you have not signed, and the minimum looks worse than you want, wait for a new quote. Gas remains ETH on chain id 1.
