Exchange rate questions
What is the current BCH to BTC exchange rate on THORChain?
1 BCH currently equals about 0.005885 BTC on THORChain's native liquidity pools. The inverse is 1 BTC = 169.918229 BCH. The rate is derived from pool depth (RUNE-denominated) and updates continuously as swaps happen.
How is the BCH / BTC rate calculated?
THORChain uses constant-product AMM pools where every asset is paired with RUNE. The cross-pair rate is (base-pool RUNE depth / base-pool asset depth) × (quote-pool asset depth / quote-pool RUNE depth). No oracle — the rate is whatever the on-chain pools clear at.
Why does this rate differ from Binance or Coinbase?
Centralized exchanges set prices via order books across many markets. THORChain is a standalone AMM — its rate reflects only its own liquidity. Small deviations are normal; large gaps usually mean liquidity is thin on one side of the pair and arbitrageurs haven't closed the gap yet.
