    Bitcoin — privacy-wallet liquidity hub

    Bitcoin remains the deepest funding asset for anonymous NO-KYC routes on PrivSwap — liquid, widely held, and a common first leg into XMR, ETH, and stables.

    Before you send BTC

    • Confirm the wallet can pay SegWit (bc1…) deposits.
    • Budget a network fee — cheap fees mean slower confirmation.
    • Send only BTC on Bitcoin mainnet to the deposit shown on your PrivSwap order.

    BTC deposit timing

    Block times vary with load and the fee you choose.

    • Use mempool.space (or similar) to see if your fee is competitive.
    • Explorers show queue depth — compare against pending volume.
    • Average BTC blocks are ~10 minutes; longer gaps happen.

    Why BTC funds privacy-first swaps

    BTC’s liquidity makes it a common funding leg for anonymous PrivSwap routes.

    Moving into ETH, stables, or alt L1s opens DeFi and payments without funding a custodial exchange balance.

    Privacy swap FAQ

    Does BTC to ZEC require KYC or an account?

    No. PrivSwap does not ask for a profile, ID documents, or a hosted balance for Bitcoin to Zcash.

    How long until ZEC arrives?

    Many orders finish in a few minutes. Bitcoin mainnet deposit confirmations and Zcash mainnet payout time set the wait.

    Do you hold BTC or ZEC for me?

    No. You send BTC from a wallet you control and ZEC is paid to the address you provide — PrivSwap does not keep a user wallet.

    What if I send BTC on the wrong chain?

    Use Bitcoin mainnet exactly as shown on the order. A wrong-network send may not be credited — read the swap safety notes first.
