Swap Bitcoin to any asset
Bridge Bitcoin to any asset on Garden by following these steps.
- Open Garden's swap interface and connect both your EVM wallet and Bitcoin wallet.
-
Choose Bitcoin (BTC) as the Send asset and your desired asset and chain in Receive (e.g., cbBTC on Base).
-
Input the amount you wish to send or receive and hit the Swap button.
- You’ll first be prompted to approve the transaction in your EVM wallet, then in your Bitcoin wallet to approve and send the Bitcoin.
- Keep the browser open while the swap is in progress. You’ll receive a notification once it’s successful.
For subsequent swaps during an app session, you only need to sign once from the Send wallet.
You can bridge Bitcoin with just your EVM wallet connected, and the process is mostly the same. The key differences are: after hitting the Swap button, you must manually copy the Deposit address and send the exact Bitcoin amount from your Bitcoin wallet. Additionally, you need to provide a Bitcoin Recovery address to ensure refunds if a solver isn’t matched.
