Exchange in 3 steps
-
Set the IO amount and paste your Bitcoin payout address on Bitcoin mainnet.
-
Create the order to lock the quote and see the deposit address.
-
Send IO to that deposit. After confirmations, BTC is paid to your wallet.
Before you broadcast
- Deposits on SPL on Solana follow that chain's confirmation times.
- Send only on SPL on Solana — other networks are not interchangeable.
- Double-check the network on your order page before you send.
- BTC not visible yet? Wait a few minutes, resync your wallet, then contact support with your order ID if the payout tx is already listed.
io.net on Solana
Always match IO on SPL on Solana when you send or receive — wrong-network transfers may not be credited.
Before you send
Use a wallet that supports SPL on Solana.
Verify the deposit network on your order page matches your wallet.
Bitcoin — the original digital asset
Since 2009, Bitcoin has been the benchmark cryptocurrency — deep liquidity, wide recognition, and the default on-ramp for cross-chain swaps.
When is my BTC spendable?
After your payout transaction receives the confirmations shown on the order page — typically one or more blocks depending on route.
Checking your 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
Is identity verification required to trade IO for BTC?
No. GetSwap is a NO-KYC & Privacy-First Crypto Exchange — no profile, no ID upload, and no funded account for io.net → Bitcoin.
How long is a IO → BTC order?
Typical completion is a few minutes. SPL on Solana and Bitcoin mainnet confirmation times set the pace.
Do you custody IO or BTC?
No. You send IO yourself and BTC is paid to the address you enter — GetSwap does not keep a wallet balance for you.
What if I pick the wrong IO network?
Match the network printed on the order (SPL on Solana). A mismatch can strand the deposit — check the swap safety notes first.
