Before you send BTC: checklist
- 1.Destination address format: 4… or 8… (95 characters): primary address or subaddress; no payment ID needed.
- 2.Network: send BTC on Bitcoin only. You receive XMR on Monero.
- 3.Amount: within the limits shown above; send exactly the amount the form displays. If your exchange deducts a withdrawal fee, enter the amount that will actually arrive.
- 4.Refund address: add a BTC address you control — it is where funds go if the deposit arrives outside the limits or the swap cannot complete.
- 5.Tracking: the status page shows every stage; the deposit can be watched on blockchain.com — the Monero payout is private, your wallet shows the amount.
When people swap BTC to XMR
- •Moving savings out of a transparent ledger into a private one without opening an exchange account.
- •Paying a merchant or person who only accepts XMR when all you hold is BTC.
- •Breaking the public link between a BTC address that is tied to your identity and your future spending.
Privacy: what is and isn't hidden
Monero hides sender, receiver and amount by default. Bitcoin does not: every BTC transaction is public forever. The privacy of a BTC↔XMR swap therefore depends on the Bitcoin side — which address you send from, whether you reuse it, and whether it is already linked to an exchange account that knows your identity.
Practical steps: send the deposit from a fresh address rather than a long-lived one; do not send directly from an exchange account if you want the exchange not to know you bought XMR; use a subaddress in your Monero wallet for the payout so each swap lands in a new address. The XMR you receive carries no history from the Bitcoin side.
