| Network | Standard | Typical Confirm | XBTFX Fee |
|---|---|---|---|
 ETH on EthereumThe original Ethereum chain. Highest security and broadest wallet support — also the most expensive in gas fees. | Mainnet (L1) | ~1–3 min | Free |
| BETH on BaseCoinbase's L2 — typically the cheapest and fastest way to send ETH. Settles back to Ethereum mainnet. | L2 | ~5 sec | Free |
 ETH on ArbitrumEthereum L2 with the largest TVL. Cheap fees, Ethereum-grade security. | L2 | ~30 sec | Free |
Each network is a different chain. Always confirm the network in your sending wallet matches the deposit address shown in the XBTFX portal — sending ETH on the wrong network can result in permanent loss of funds. Wrapped ETH (WETH) tokens and ETH on unsupported chains are not deposit assets. XBTFX charges zero deposit and withdrawal fees on ETH; only the underlying network fee applies.
What is Ethereum (ETH)?
Ethereum is the largest smart-contract blockchain, launched in 2015. Ether (ETH) is its native asset — used to pay transaction fees, secure the network through staking, and serve as collateral across decentralised finance. At XBTFX, ETH is one of our core deposit assets and a supported MT5 account currency, so your trading capital and P&L can stay denominated in Ether from end to end.
ETH account currency
Trade Forex with Ether as your settlement currency
Open an MT5 account denominated in ETH and every position you take — EUR/USD, XAU/USD, Nasdaq 100, share CFDs, even other crypto CFDs — settles its P&L in Ether. Your stack stays in ETH, no forced USD conversions cut into your trading capital, and you can offset directional ETH exposure with short ETH/USD CFD positions on the same account.
Stack in ETH, not dollars
Equity grows or contracts in Ether. Your benchmark is ETH — fiat is just one of the things you're trading against.
No conversion friction
Deposit ETH, trade in ETH, withdraw ETH. No forced USD conversion when you fund or withdraw, and no conversion spread cutting into P&L.
Hedge ETH with ETH
Short ETH/USD CFD on the same account to hedge directional Ether exposure while running forex, metals, or index trades.
How to deposit ETH
From sign-up to your first trade in three steps.
-
Open an account
Register in the XBTFX portal and verify your identity.
-
Get your ETH address
In the portal, choose Deposit, then Crypto deposit. Send it to your XBTFX balance or straight to a trading account, pick ETH and its network, then copy the address.
-
Send and trade
Send ETH on the same network. After the confirmations shown in the portal, it arrives in your balance, or in your trading account converted to the account's currency.
Need another currency? Convert swaps one balance for another in the portal. You see the rate and the fee before you confirm, and the result is credited at once.
How to withdraw ETH
Withdrawals are paid from your XBTFX balance, so move funds back from a trading account first. In the portal, choose Withdraw, pick the balance and the amount, then Crypto withdrawal with ETH and its network.
Check the receiving address and network before you confirm. Requests are processed within 24 hours on business days, and network fees apply. For extra safety, save trusted addresses and switch on Approved addresses only.
