Tunnel in 3 steps
-
Choose how much ETH to send and paste the Ethereum Classic address that should receive funds on Ethereum Classic mainnet.
-
Open the order to freeze the quote and reveal a one-time deposit destination.
-
Broadcast ETH to that destination. Once confirmations clear, ETC is pushed to your payout wallet.
Before you broadcast
- Ethereum deposits confirm quickly — usually within a few blocks (~12s each).
- During gas spikes, confirmation cost rises but inclusion remains fast.
- Send ETH on Ethereum mainnet only — not BSC, Base, or other L2s unless your order says otherwise.
- Still waiting on ETC? Give the wallet a few minutes to sync, then share your Exchange ID with support if the order already lists a payout hash.
Ethereum — programmable money on-chain
ETH powers Ethereum mainnet — gas, staking, DeFi, and most smart-contract activity in crypto live here.
Sending ETH to the right network
Use an Ethereum mainnet wallet for deposits. L2 or alternate-chain sends may not be credited.
Leave enough ETH in your wallet to cover gas on top of the swap amount.
Ethereum Classic
Always match ETC on Ethereum Classic mainnet when you send or receive — wrong-network transfers may not be credited.
Receiving ETC
Your wallet must be on Ethereum Classic mainnet.
Allow a few minutes after the order shows sent before opening support.
Before you swap
Avoid wrong-network deposits and address format mistakes — read these guides first.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need KYC to swap ETH for ETC on TunnelSwap?
No. TunnelSwap is an anonymous no-KYC, privacy-first exchange. There is no account, no ID upload, and no standing balance for Ethereum → Ethereum Classic swaps.
How fast is a ETH → ETC swap?
Most routes settle within minutes. Final timing follows Ethereum mainnet deposit confirmations and Ethereum Classic mainnet payout speed.
Does TunnelSwap hold my ETH or ETC?
No. You fund the deposit from your wallet and ETC is sent straight to the address you paste — non-custodial, wallet to wallet.
What if I use the wrong network for ETH?
Only send on the network shown for the order (Ethereum mainnet). Wrong-chain deposits can be unrecoverable — review the safety guides before you broadcast.
