## Minting cBTC Guide

Wrapping Bitcoin onto Cardano utilizing the anetaBTC bridge involves sending Bitcoin to anetaBTC’s bitcoin vault.

The anetaBTC protocol currently supports [Moonshine](https://twitter.com/moonshinewallet) and [Trezor](https://trezor.io/trezor-suite) Wallet.&#x20;

**Guide**

1. Enter the quantity of Bitcoin that you would like to wrap into the anetaBTC user interface.&#x20;
2. From your Bitcoin wallet, send the exact amount of bitcoin denoted on the anetaBTC user interface, and in the **metadata (OP\_RETURN)** of this transaction add your **Cardano enterprise address** that is displayed on the anetaBTC UI.&#x20;
3. Wait for cBTC to arrive in your Cardano wallet. This may take up to 24 hours.

**Important**

**Do NOT send Bitcoin from an exchange address, or without including the provided Cardano address in the Bitcoin transaction.**&#x20;
