How to exchange DASH for BTC safely and at a good rate
To switch from Dash to Bitcoin 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.
Dash (DASH) is “digital cash” with masternodes and instant InstantSend payment locking. Bitcoin (BTC) is the first and largest cryptocurrency, with a capped supply of 21 million coins.
Why swap DASH for BTC
Coins serve different purposes, and sometimes holding BTC makes more sense — for faster transfers, staking or the Bitcoin ecosystem. Bitcoin is most often bought for long-term holding as “digital gold”.
Networks and addresses
| You send DASH | You receive BTC | |
|---|---|---|
| Network | Dash | Bitcoin |
| Address | “X…” or “7…” | “bc1…”, “1…” or “3…” |
| Network speed | InstantSend locks a payment within a couple of seconds | a block comes roughly every 10 minutes |
| Memo / tag | Not needed | Not needed |
What to watch out for
- Send DASH on the Dash network only; CoinJoin isn’t needed for a swap.
- A Bitcoin address starts with “bc1”, “1” or “3” — don’t confuse it with a Bitcoin Cash address.
- 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 Dash, InstantSend locks a payment within a couple of seconds; on Bitcoin, a block comes roughly every 10 minutes. The whole DASH to BTC swap usually takes 5 to 30 minutes once your transfer is confirmed.
The current rate is 1 BTC = 1 521.99 DASH and the minimum amount is 0.377358 DASH. Create an order in the form above, and ROVEN exchange will send swap updates by email or Telegram.
