Route

Bridge DAI to Bitcoin, no account needed

Swap DAI to BTC without an account or KYC

Two routes serve this pair. Connect a wallet and approve one transaction, or skip the wallet entirely and send DAI to a deposit address from wherever you hold it. Both are quoted side by side, and BTC lands on Bitcoin at whatever address you name.

Sending DAI for Bitcoin, step by step

  1. 01

    Enter how much DAI you're sending, then either connect a wallet or paste the Bitcoin address you want the BTC sent to.

  2. 02

    Compare the two routes. Each shows what you'd receive and its all-in cost, ordered by what you get — not by what we earn.

  3. 03

    Confirm. If you connected a wallet, that's one signature. Either way you can verify the delivery on the Bitcoin explorer.

Q&A

DAI to Bitcoin, answered

Can I bridge DAI to Bitcoin without an account?

Yes. There's no sign-up, no email and no identity check. All we need is the Bitcoin address you want the BTC sent to. A recovery key is generated locally so you can find this transfer again later — it controls no funds and you can ignore it.

Do I need to pass KYC to bridge DAI to Bitcoin?

No. There is no identity check on this route, because there is no account to attach one to. No email, no phone, no document. That is not the same as being anonymous. Your Ethereum deposit and the Bitcoin delivery are both permanent public records that anyone can read. We collect no identity. The chains still publish the transaction.

Do I need to connect a wallet to bridge DAI to Bitcoin?

It's optional. Connecting lets you send directly from your wallet with one signature, and shows your balance. Skipping it works too: you send DAI to a deposit address and name any Bitcoin address as the destination.

How long does a DAI to Bitcoin transfer take?

The median across all pairs is 27s, measured from transfers that actually settled. This particular pair depends on how fast Ethereum confirms your deposit — the form shows a live estimate for the route you pick before you commit to anything.

What does it cost to bridge DAI to Bitcoin?

You see the exact figure before you send, not after. The receipt lists the router's fee, gas on Bitcoin, and our own fee where we take one, then a total in dollars and as a percentage of what you're sending. That total is always what you send minus what you receive, so you can verify it against the two amounts yourself.

Is the DAI to Bitcoin bridge non-custodial?

Yes. BlockSquad never takes possession of your funds and executes no transfer itself. Your DAI goes to the router's deposit address and the BTC is delivered to the Bitcoin address you named — both are on-chain transactions you can verify yourself. There is no BlockSquad balance to withdraw from, which is also why there is nothing for us to freeze.
