Tunnel in 3 steps

  1. Choose how much ADA to send and paste the Bitcoin address that should receive funds on Bitcoin mainnet.

  2. Open the order to freeze the quote and reveal a one-time deposit destination.

  3. Broadcast ADA to that destination. Once confirmations clear, BTC is pushed to your payout wallet.

Before you broadcast

  • Cardano deposits need several confirmations before the swap proceeds.
  • Block times are around 20 seconds but can vary with network load.
  • Use a Shelley-era Cardano address — legacy Byron formats may not be supported on all routes.
  • Still waiting on BTC? Give the wallet a few minutes to sync, then share your Exchange ID with support if the order already lists a payout hash.

Cardano — research-driven layer-1

ADA is the native token of Cardano — a proof-of-stake network focused on security and formal verification.

Sending ADA

Send native ADA on Cardano mainnet from a compatible wallet.

Leave enough ADA for the transaction fee in addition to your swap amount.

You receive

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.
