L-BTC → BTC
Liquid Bitcoin is Bitcoin on Liquid, Blockstream's sidechain, with transfers in about 2 minutes and confidential amounts. Bitcoin is the first and most traded cryptocurrency, with a block every 10 minutes on average. On Noidchange you swap one for the other in a single order: we compare our partner providers' quotes on the spot and show you the best one, with every fee already taken off the amount you get.

How it works
- 01
Pick the pair
Fees already included.
Pick the pair
Turn on privacy mode in + Options.
Pick the coin you send, the one you want and, if you like, the amount. We compare our partner providers’ quotes on the spot and show you the best one. The “You get” amount already has everything taken off: service fee and network fee. Type an amount and the rate is usually locked for a few minutes; leave it empty and you send what you like within the limits, at the market rate of that moment.
Pick the coin you send and the one you want to receive and, before creating the order, turn on privacy mode in + Options. It is a different swap strategy: instead of going direct, it goes through Monero in two steps. It costs a bit more, since it is two swaps plus a privacy fee, and the quote already shows the final amount with everything included. If you are on a VPN or proxy, the mode turns on automatically.
- 02
Paste your address
Only where you want to receive.
Paste your address
Only where you want to receive.
Enter the wallet address where you want to receive. It is the only thing we ask for: no account, email, phone or documents. Check that the address is on the right network before pasting. If you like, under + Options you can set a refund address, where the funds go back automatically if the swap can’t be completed.
Enter the wallet address where you want to receive, just like a normal swap. Along the way your coin becomes Monero and then the final coin. Monero hides sender, receiver and amount, so the on-chain trail between what you send and what you receive breaks. With two active providers, each step goes through a different one, and neither sees both ends.

Send, done
Lands straight in your wallet.

Once the order is created you get a deposit address and a unique link to follow it. Send the amount shown on the order, on the network shown. After the network confirms, the swap runs and the coin lands straight in your wallet, usually 5 to 30 minutes later. Every order ends completed or refunded, and support is in the chat.
Send the amount shown on the order. The final coin lands in your wallet, it just takes a little longer because there are two steps. Your IP is not stored or sent to providers, and order data is deleted 24 h after completion. So keep the order ID and the transaction hashes: with them you can prove the transaction if you ever need to declare it.
FAQ
How do I swap Liquid Bitcoin to Bitcoin without an account?
Pick L-BTC → BTC in the form above, enter your BTC address (the amount is optional), and create the order. You get a deposit address: send the L-BTC there and the BTC goes straight to your wallet. No account, e-mail, phone or ID.
How long until the BTC arrives?
The L-BTC deposit needs about 2 minutes (2 confirmations). After that, the swap and payout take a few minutes: usually 5 to 30 minutes in total. The BTC payout on Bitcoin confirms in about 10 to 30 minutes (1 to 2 confirmations).
What is the minimum to swap L-BTC to BTC?
The minimum moves with the price and with Liquid network fees. It shows above, under "Minimum", and in the form itself when the amount is below it. The maximum depends on the liquidity available at the time.
What are the fees?
The "You get" amount already has everything taken off: our service fee and the network fee for the BTC payout. No hidden charges. Type an amount and the rate is usually locked for a few minutes; leave it empty and you send what you like within the limits, at the market rate of that moment.
Is swapping L-BTC to BTC private?
Liquid Bitcoin and Bitcoin are public networks. To break the trail between them, turn on privacy mode in + Options: the swap goes through Monero in the middle, each step with a different provider. We ask for no account, e-mail or ID.
Which address do I enter?
A Bitcoin address of yours, on the Bitcoin network, starting with bc1, 1 or 3. Check the network before pasting: an address from another network can make the payout go astray. In + Options you can also set a L-BTC address for automatic refunds.
What if something goes wrong?
Every order ends completed or refunded. If the swap cannot be done, the amount goes back to your refund address, or just contact support in the chat and give an address. Keep the order link to follow it.
