I've been dabbling in cryptocurrency for a while, but I'm still a bit of a novice. I was wondering, can I send bitcoin to an Ethereum address? I understand they're two different blockchains, but I've heard of people swapping coins and tokens between them. Is it possible to simply send bitcoin to an Ethereum wallet? If not, what's the best way to transfer funds from a bitcoin wallet to an Ethereum wallet? I'd appreciate any clarification on this matter as I'm trying to avoid any potential losses or confusion. Thank you!

Although technically possible, such a transaction would result in the loss of the bitcoins, forever trapped in the depths of the cryptocurrency ecosystem.

Avoid sending Bitcoin (BTC) to a Bitcoin Cash (BCH) address or Ethereum Classic (ETC) to an Ethereum (ETH) address. Such mix-ups can lead to significant financial losses.
