Rate path
The rate follows the labelled path described below. It expresses target units per source unit and is recalculated from current positive public observations.

ETH amount × current BTC-per-ETH rate = estimated BTC
BTC precision
BTC normally displays with 8 decimal places in this tool, while the calculation keeps additional precision until display rounding.
Direction matters
This direction begins with ETH and applies the public ETH/BTC cross directly. It is suited to valuing an ether quantity in bitcoin terms, not to deciding which network or asset is preferable.
How to convert ETH to BTC
Enter a Ether amount above. The calculator translates it through the relevant public reference and displays an indicative amount in Bitcoin. You can reverse the direction without leaving the page.
The ETH/BTC cross is informational and may differ across venues because each has its own liquidity and order book.
The ETH/BTC crypto cross
Kraken's public ETH/BTC market expresses ether directly in bitcoin. Reversing the pair uses the reciprocal of that cross rate. No fiat assumption is needed, and both sides can change value at the same time.
About Ether
Ether is the native asset of Ethereum, a proof-of-stake smart-contract network. ETH pays network fees and participates in staking and application markets.
An ETH conversion can compare Ethereum's native asset with bitcoin, fiat or another supported market unit. An ether cross should identify whether it comes from ETH/BTC, ETH/USD, ETH/USDT, or more than one visible leg. That path matters because each order book can have a different timestamp and liquidity, while an ETH amount also carries separate network, staking, contract, and custody risks.
About Bitcoin
Bitcoin is the native unit of the Bitcoin network. One BTC can be divided into 100,000,000 satoshis, and control depends on the keys required to spend its transaction outputs.
BTC is used to measure bitcoin balances, transaction outputs, fees and market prices. The protocol's issuance schedule is separate from the exchange rate shown by a venue. For a reproducible Bitcoin value, retain the BTC quantity, price pair, venue or index method, timestamp, and quote asset. A wallet balance and an exchange balance also have different custody evidence, even when both are written in BTC.
When this conversion is useful
- Comparing two volatile crypto units
- Checking how a cross rate changes over time
- Understanding which quote asset a market actually uses
The page answers a unit question only. It cannot decide whether either asset, venue, custody method or transaction is suitable for a reader.
Risks the number does not show
ETH: ETH and BTC are both volatile. Cross rates also reflect separate consensus, issuance, application and governance risks.
BTC: BTC has no central price and can move sharply. A conversion says nothing about custody, transaction finality, taxes or whether a purchase suits a reader.
Spread, order-book depth, slippage, funding charges, withdrawal fees and taxes remain outside the calculation.

ETH to BTC questions
How is the ETH to BTC rate calculated?
Convert an ether amount into a bitcoin reference amount using the ETH/BTC market.
What is the main difference between ETH and BTC?
Ether is the native asset of Ethereum, a proof-of-stake smart-contract network. ETH pays network fees and participates in staking and application markets. Bitcoin is the native unit of the Bitcoin network. One BTC can be divided into 100,000,000 satoshis, and control depends on the keys required to spend its transaction outputs.
What costs are excluded from this ETH-to-BTC estimate?
The ETH-to-BTC result excludes spread, trading and payment fees, slippage, withdrawal costs, taxes, and any provider minimum. Bitcoin.now cannot place or settle an order.
Why can a ETH/BTC result differ between venues?
Each venue has its own ETH/BTC order book, liquidity, spread, timestamp, and fees. The displayed public reference is therefore an estimate, not a guaranteed executable value.
Reading ether as a bitcoin quantity
This direction begins with ETH and applies the public ETH/BTC cross directly. It is suited to valuing an ether quantity in bitcoin terms, not to deciding which network or asset is preferable.
Start with the ETH quantity
Use the ether amount from the relevant record and retain its decimal precision. No Ethereum account, staking position, token balance, or contract is read by this page.
Apply BTC per ETH
The ETH/BTC market already states how many bitcoin units correspond to one ether, so this direction multiplies by the visible cross instead of taking a reciprocal.
Keep BTC value separate from proceeds
The bitcoin output is an indicative comparison. A real ETH sale and BTC purchase can involve separate orders, venue exposure, spread, fees, slippage, withdrawal rules, and custody decisions.
