Route

Bridge Bitcoin to Optimism

Bitcoin isn't an EVM chain, so nothing here can be signed from a connected wallet — which is exactly why most bridge aggregators can't route this pair at all. You send BTC to an address we give you, and OP arrives on Optimism at the address you chose. No account, no signature, no wallet.

Sending Bitcoin for Optimism, step by step

  1. 01

    Enter how much BTC you're sending and paste the Optimism address where you want the OP to land. Check it twice — an on-chain transfer is final.

  2. 02

    Read the receipt. It shows the total cost as a dollar figure and a percentage, and it always equals what you send minus what you receive.

  3. 03

    Send your BTC to the deposit address. Track it on this site, and verify the delivery yourself on the Optimism explorer.
