About this pair

DAI to BTC is the direct route from dollar-pegged value into Bitcoin. U.CASH compares live offers across instant-exchange partners and shows the best BTC receive amount before you commit. Send DAI to the deposit address, and BTC lands at a Bitcoin address (bc1… or legacy 1…/3…) in the wallet you choose.

Before you start

The setup is short by design: one wallet capable of holding DAI, one receiving address for the BTC, and nothing else. Read the preview before signing, since it carries the entire trade at a glance, the amounts in and out with the fee and network costs included. The wallet stays yours throughout and signs only the transaction you read on screen.

How the DAI to BTC swap works

Step 01

Enter your DAI amount

Open the pair with both sides preselected and type the amount of Dai you are converting. The quote for BTC updates with it, all-in, before anything is committed.

Step 02

Compare the live offers

The instant-exchange network returns competing offers for the pair and the best net BTC amount is shown. The number you approve is the number that executes; there is no spread behind it.

Step 03

Confirm once

Approve the quote and send your DAI to the displayed address. One confirmation on the way in is all the flow asks; nothing is custodial anywhere in the path.

Step 04

Receive BTC at your address

The BTC settles on-chain to the address you chose, under 1 confirmation (fast), 3 (standard). From confirmation it is an ordinary balance: spend it, hold it, or route it on.

This pair crosses networks: the DAI leaves on Stablecoin and the BTC arrives on Bitcoin (UTXO). The instant-exchange network handles both legs as one quoted trade, so the crossing is priced into the offer you approve rather than added after the fact.

Fees and settlement

Count it on one hand: 0.50% flat to the platform, stated in the quote with nothing behind it, plus each chain's gas for its leg of the trip. The route runs non-custodial end to end, so when the BTC settles 1 confirmation (fast), 3 (standard) at your address, it is yours in the fullest sense: no custodian, no withdrawal queue, no platform in the path.

DAI to BTC: FAQ

How does a DAI to BTC swap work?

Enter your DAI amount and your BTC address, then confirm. U.CASH finds the partner with the best live offer, gives you a DAI deposit address, and BTC is sent to your address once the deposit confirms.

Do I need a wallet extension to swap DAI for BTC?

No. The instant rail only needs the two addresses: an Ethereum address (0x…) for the deposit and refunds, and a Bitcoin address (bc1… or legacy 1…/3…) to receive the BTC.

How long does a DAI to BTC exchange take?

DAI on Ethereum settles with ~12 second blocks, so the trade is usually waiting on the payout leg: most instant exchanges complete within ten to thirty minutes, tracked live on the status screen.

How long does a DAI to BTC swap take?

At the chains' pace. The exchange leg commits after the incoming transfer confirms and the BTC settles 1 confirmation (fast), 3 (standard); the preview states the expectation with the quote, and the status you watch is the same one the settlement acts on.

Is the DAI to BTC swap non-custodial?

Yes. Your wallet signs every step and the BTC settles to the address you chose; U.CASH never holds either asset, and there is no platform wallet anywhere in the route.
