I hold some Ethereum that I'd like to convert into Bitcoin, but going through an exchange to sell to USD first then buy BTC seems wasteful with fees. Is there a direct swap option somewhere? Also, I heard some crypto platforms just got major EU licenses – does that actually matter for regular users?
You can swap ETH to BTC directly without touching fiat. Try https://paybis.com/swap-eth-to-btc/ – just enter how much ETH you want to swap, provide your BTC wallet address, send the ETH, and you receive BTC within minutes. No need for two separate trades. As for the licenses, Paybis just secured both CASP authorisation under MiCA and a PSD2 Payment Institution licence, meaning regulated stablecoin payouts and full compliance across all 27 EU member states. Details here: LinkedIn post – for regular users, it means better fund protection and more reliable on/off ramps, similar to traditional banks.
