How to exchange TON for BCH safely and at a good rate
To switch from Toncoin to Bitcoin Cash 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.
Toncoin (TON) is the coin of the TON blockchain, closely tied to Telegram and its built-in wallet. Bitcoin Cash (BCH) is a 2017 fork of Bitcoin with bigger blocks and fees of a fraction of a cent.
Why swap TON for BCH
Coins serve different purposes, and sometimes holding BCH makes more sense — for faster transfers, staking or the Bitcoin Cash ecosystem. Bitcoin Cash was built for fast, cheap transfers, which makes it handy for payments.
Networks and addresses
| You send TON | You receive BCH | |
|---|---|---|
| Network | TON | Bitcoin Cash |
| Address | “UQ…” or “EQ…” | “q…” or “bitcoincash:q…” |
| Network speed | a transfer confirms in a few seconds | a block comes roughly every 10 minutes |
| Memo / tag | Required, from the order | Not needed |
What to watch out for
- When sending TON, paste the comment (memo) from the order — without it the payment won’t be matched automatically.
- Use a CashAddr address (“q…”) so it can’t be confused with a Bitcoin address.
- When sending TON, include the memo from the order, or the payment will have to be traced manually.
- 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 TON, a transfer confirms in a few seconds; on Bitcoin Cash, a block comes roughly every 10 minutes. The whole TON to BCH swap usually takes 5 to 30 minutes once your transfer is confirmed.
The current rate is 1 BCH = 171.607143 TON and the minimum amount is 6.666667 TON. Create an order in the form above, and ROVEN exchange will send swap updates by email or Telegram.
