Swap WBTC to Bitcoin.
Move WBTC out of your EVM wallet and receive BTC where you want to use it, without an exchange deposit.
Choose your networks and amount, then continue in the Satora app to add your receiving details and complete the swap.
From wrapped Bitcoin to a Bitcoin wallet
If your WBTC is no longer needed in an EVM application, swap it for BTC on-chain, on Lightning or in Arkade. You receive BTC through the selected route, not another wrapped token.
This is a market swap, not a request to mint or redeem WBTC with its issuer. Review the net quote instead of assuming you receive exactly 1 BTC for 1 WBTC after fees.

Choose the networks that match your wallets
- WBTC networks
- The current Satora token list includes Ethereum, Arbitrum and Polygon for WBTC. Ethereum is selected by default. Use only the exact token and network offered in the selector; availability and quotes can change.

- Choose Bitcoin for an on-chain address, Lightning for a compatible payment destination, or Arkade for a compatible wallet. Follow the destination requirements shown in the app.
Understand what you send
WBTC is a token representing Bitcoin on other networks. Holding it in an EVM wallet is different from holding BTC in a Bitcoin wallet.
Read about Wrapped BitcoinPrepare your receiving wallet
Keep access to the Bitcoin wallet you intend to receive into. Lightning and Arkade destinations have different requirements from a normal Bitcoin address; use the receiving details requested by the app.
The module prepares a quote, not a transaction. The amount you entered is carried into the app, while the other side is recalculated. Check the updated amount and limits before funding.

BTCArkadeBefore you swap
Does swapping WBTC to BTC mean redeeming it with the issuer?
No. Satora provides a swap route. It is separate from the WBTC issuer's minting and redemption process, and the amount received depends on the quote and fees.
Can I receive on Lightning or Arkade?
Choose the Bitcoin network in the selector and request a quote. The app provides the route-specific instructions. Wallet compatibility, limits and network conditions still apply.
What fees will I pay?
Satora charges a 0.5% service fee, plus applicable network fees. Review the final quote in the app and any wallet approval or funding fees before paying.
Do I need gas to send the token?
An EVM wallet may need the network's native token to approve and fund the swap. Check the app and wallet prompts; do not assume a gasless receiving step removes source-side fees.
Can I enter the amount I want to receive?
Yes. Enter it in the Buy field. That target amount is passed to the app, which requests an updated quote. Amount limits and available liquidity still apply.
What happens if the swap cannot complete?
Keep the swap details and recovery material. Recovery depends on the funded route and its status; it may require waiting and network fees. Follow the instructions for that swap rather than assuming an immediate refund.
