How the swap works
-
Type the OP amount and paste your Bitcoin payout address on Bitcoin mainnet.
-
Press Exchange to open the live quote and the deposit address for this order.
-
Broadcast OP to that deposit. After the required confirmations, BTC is sent to your wallet.
Check these before you send
- Optimism confirmations are usually fast — often within a minute.
- Send OP on Optimism mainnet only — not Ethereum, Base, or Arbitrum unless your order says otherwise.
- Use an Optimism-compatible wallet and address (0x…). Leave enough ETH on Optimism for gas if sending ERC-20 tokens.
- If BTC has not appeared yet, wait a few minutes and refresh the wallet. When the order already shows a payout tx, contact support with your order ID.
Optimism — Ethereum L2 with low fees
OP is the governance token of Optimism — an Ethereum rollup with fast, low-cost transfers and deep Superchain liquidity.
OP on Optimism mainnet
Use an Optimism wallet for deposits. L1 Ethereum or other L2 sends may not be credited.
Leave enough ETH on Optimism for gas when moving OP or other tokens.
Bitcoin — the base layer of crypto
Since 2009 Bitcoin has been the reference asset — deep liquidity, wide recognition, and the usual starting point for cross-chain routes.
When can I spend the BTC payout?
After your payout transaction receives the confirmations shown on the order page — typically one or more blocks depending on route.
How to verify a BTC payout
- Open the order page and copy the payout transaction hash into a Bitcoin block explorer.
- Confirm the destination address matches your wallet exactly — including case and format.
- Most wallets show incoming BTC after one confirmation; some exchanges wait for more.

Frequently asked questions
Does OP to BTC require KYC or an account?
No. PeakSwap does not ask for a profile, ID documents, or a hosted balance for Optimism to Bitcoin.
How long until BTC arrives?
Many orders finish in a few minutes. Optimism mainnet deposit confirmations and Bitcoin mainnet payout time set the wait.
Do you hold OP or BTC for me?
No. You send OP from a wallet you control and BTC is paid to the address you provide — PeakSwap does not keep a user wallet.
What if I send OP on the wrong chain?
Use Optimism mainnet exactly as shown on the order. A wrong-network send may not be credited — read the swap safety notes first.
