On December 8th, 2025, the non-custodial multichain exchange Xgram.io announced the launch of a direct Bitcoin-to-Monero swap service. The new feature allows users to exchange Bitcoin (BTC) and wrapped BTC equivalents for native Monero (XMR), with the privacy coin delivered directly to the user's designated wallet.
The swap process on the Xgram platform involves selecting Bitcoin as the source asset and Monero as the destination, entering the amount, and executing the transaction. The platform aggregates liquidity from large centralized exchange order books and its own internal pools to determine the optimal route. According to the company, Monero is delivered in most cases within 10 to 20 minutes, a timeframe that aligns with standard Bitcoin network confirmation times.
Andrew K., Chief Marketing Officer at Xgram.io, stated the feature was driven by user demand: "Honestly, it was the pair we got asked about the most. People just wanted a fast, cheap way to move from Bitcoin to Monero without all the usual hassle. So we built it and flipped the switch." The company claims its exchange rates remain competitive, often surpassing conditions on public aggregators due to its proprietary liquidity provision.
The launch highlights the market roles of both assets, with Bitcoin serving as a primary store of value and Monero as a preferred asset for privacy-focused activity. This direct swap path is designed to reduce friction for users looking to rotate holdings, enhance financial privacy, or diversify portfolios without operational complexity. The service is live and will remain operational as long as liquidity and pricing conditions are favorable.
Xgram.io, launched in 2023, specializes in instant, private swaps across multiple blockchains including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, TON, and Tron, and has served over 100,000 users worldwide.
