Swapping Bitcoin Cash for Shiba Inu: what you need to know
To switch from Bitcoin Cash to Shiba Inu you don’t need to sell for dollars first and then buy again. ROVEN exchange does it in one step: one order, one rate, one payout.
Bitcoin Cash (BCH) is a 2017 fork of Bitcoin with bigger blocks and fees of a fraction of a cent. Shiba Inu (SHIB) is a popular ERC20 meme token on Ethereum with an enormous supply.
Why swap BCH for SHIB ERC20
Coins serve different purposes, and sometimes holding SHIB makes more sense — for faster transfers, staking or the Ethereum (ERC20) ecosystem. Shiba Inu is a popular meme asset with a large community and high volatility, so weigh the risks in advance.
Networks and addresses
| You send BCH | You receive SHIB ERC20 | |
|---|---|---|
| Network | Bitcoin Cash | Ethereum (ERC20) |
| Address | “q…” or “bitcoincash:q…” | “0x” + 40 characters |
| Network speed | a block comes roughly every 10 minutes | a block comes every 12 seconds |
| Memo / tag | Not needed | Not needed |
What to watch out for
- Don’t send BCH from a Bitcoin wallet or vice versa — they’re different networks.
- SHIB arrives at a “0x…” address; if the token isn’t visible, add it using the official contract.
- Send the exact amount from the order and do it within 30 minutes, while the locked rate is valid.
How long the swap takes
Swap speed depends on both networks. On Bitcoin Cash, a block comes roughly every 10 minutes; on Ethereum (ERC20), a block comes every 12 seconds. The whole BCH to SHIB ERC20 swap usually takes 5 to 30 minutes once your transfer is confirmed.
The current rate is 1 BCH = 64 115 625 SHIB and the minimum amount is 0.066667 BCH. Create an order in the form above, and ROVEN exchange will send swap updates by email or Telegram.
