Swapping BTC for NEAR lets you move value from Bitcoin's settlement layer into the NEAR Protocol ecosystem, where NEAR is used for transaction fees, staking, and interacting with decentralized applications. Traders often make this exchange to participate in NEAR-based DeFi, NFT platforms, or validator staking without relying on a centralized exchange account. Zest Exchange lets you convert BTC to NEAR directly with no signup required and rates shown before you confirm.
Both BTC and NEAR have shown notable short-term price swings, so a fixed rate helps ensure the NEAR amount you see quoted is the amount you receive, regardless of how long Bitcoin confirmation takes. You can still choose fixed or floating in the swap form before creating the order.
Open the exchange widget and select BTC as the send currency and NEAR as the receive currency.
Enter the amount of BTC you want to exchange. The widget shows the live rate and minimum amount for this pair.
Paste your NEAR wallet address into the recipient field, then select the correct receive network — either NEAR Protocol mainnet or BNB Smart Chain — making sure it matches the network your wallet supports.
Click Exchange and send your BTC to the deposit address shown. Your NEAR will arrive once the transaction confirms on-chain.
When sending, confirm your Bitcoin is being broadcast on the Bitcoin mainnet — no other network options exist for BTC, but always verify the deposit address shown is a native Bitcoin address. On the receive side, NEAR is available on both the NEAR Protocol mainnet and BNB Smart Chain, so you must select the network that matches your destination wallet before confirming; sending NEAR to a BNB Smart Chain address when your wallet expects native NEAR (or vice versa) can result in unrecoverable funds. Native NEAR addresses do not require a memo or tag, but double-check this with your specific wallet or exchange if you are sending to a custodial account. Bitcoin confirmation times depend on network congestion and the fee attached to your transaction, so the overall swap duration can vary. Review the quoted rate, the destination address, and the selected NEAR network one final time before clicking confirm.

Choose NEAR Protocol mainnet if your wallet is a native NEAR wallet such as MyNearWallet or a hardware wallet configured for NEAR. Choose BNB Smart Chain only if your destination address is a BEP-20 compatible wallet like MetaMask. Sending to the wrong network can lead to permanent loss of funds, so verify with your wallet provider if you are unsure.
With a floating rate, the final NEAR amount can shift if prices move during the confirmation window, which can take extra time when Bitcoin mempool congestion is high. Selecting a fixed rate locks in the quoted NEAR amount at the time you confirm the swap, protecting you from price movement during that period. Review which rate type you have selected before sending your BTC.
Yes, a minimum exchange amount applies and is displayed in the widget when you enter the pair. The minimum exists to cover on-chain fees for both the Bitcoin and NEAR networks and can fluctuate with network conditions. Always check the current minimum shown before initiating the swap.

The total time depends on how quickly your BTC deposit receives sufficient on-chain confirmations, which varies with Bitcoin network congestion and the transaction fee you paid. After the deposit is confirmed, the exchange processes the conversion and broadcasts the NEAR payout, which then requires confirmation on the NEAR network or BNB Smart Chain depending on your chosen receive network. Overall duration can range from several minutes to longer under heavy network load.
Zest Exchange does not require account creation or sign-up for standard swaps, and the exchange is non-custodial, meaning your funds are not held on the platform. However, both the Bitcoin and NEAR blockchains are public ledgers, so transaction details are visible on-chain. In certain circumstances, additional identity checks may be required by underlying compliance processes, so complete anonymity cannot be guaranteed in every situation.
