Exchange in 3 steps
-
Choose how much VET to send and enter your Bitcoin address on Bitcoin mainnet.
-
Hit Exchange to open your order page with the live rate and deposit details.
-
Transfer VET to the address on your order — after confirmations, BTC is sent to your wallet automatically.
What do you need to know?
- Deposits on VeChain mainnet follow that chain's confirmation times.
- Network congestion can occasionally delay inclusion — check status if stuck.
- Send only VET on VeChain mainnet to the address on your order page.
- BTC not visible yet? Wait a few minutes, resync your wallet, then contact support with your order ID if the payout tx is already listed.
VeChain
Always match VET on VeChain mainnet when you send or receive — wrong-network transfers may not be credited.
Before you send
Use a wallet that supports VeChain mainnet.
Verify the deposit network on your order page matches your wallet.
Bitcoin — the original digital asset
Since 2009, Bitcoin has been the benchmark cryptocurrency — deep liquidity, wide recognition, and the default on-ramp for cross-chain swaps.
When is my BTC spendable?
After your payout transaction receives the confirmations shown on the order page — typically one or more blocks depending on route.
Checking your BTC payout
- Open the order page and copy the payout transaction hash into a Bitcoin block explorer.
- Confirm the destination address matches your wallet exactly — including case and format.
- Most wallets show incoming BTC after one confirmation; some exchanges wait for more.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need KYC to swap VET to BTC?
No. SendSwap is a non-custodial instant exchange — no account, no ID checks, and no KYC for VeChain to Bitcoin swaps.
How long does VET to BTC take?
Most swaps finish in 1–5 minutes. Timing depends on VeChain mainnet and Bitcoin mainnet confirmations and current network load.
Is VET to BTC non-custodial?
Yes. You send VET from your wallet and receive BTC directly to the address you provide — SendSwap never holds your keys.
What if I send VET on the wrong network?
Always match the network on your order page (VeChain mainnet for deposits). Wrong-network sends may not be credited — read our swap safety guides before you send.
