That is why people who own cryptocurrency are interested in how to take it out of the virtual space. In particular, today we will figure out how to withdraw money from a Bitcoin wallet to a Qiwi wallet. It's not that easy because there are too few ways to transfer digital money into the real world.
Many Russian crypto holders have Qiwi accounts, it is logical that it is better to withdraw Bitcoins in this regard. True, a direct conclusion is not yet possible, but there are alternatives that we will consider today.
Two options
Bitcoin is the father of cryptocurrencies, and it is used in almost every service related to this area. Qiwi is a popular payment system that has been around for more than 10 years and during this time has managed to gain the trust of many customers both in Russia and in the USA, Brazil and other countries. That’s why most platforms dedicated to operations with cryptocurrencies offer the exchange of bitcoin to Qiwi.
There are two options for withdrawing Bitcoin to Qiwi. The first one, used most often, is through a cryptocurrency exchanger. The second - unreliable and practically unpopular - is through selling on the forum. Despite the fact that it is safer to use only the first option, we will consider both.
Sale
Let me start, perhaps, with what only a few people trust. Go to any forum dedicated to cryptocurrency. In addition to a lot of trolls, you can find people there who are ready to buy bitcoins directly from their holder.
Exchange Qiwi for Bitcoin on exchanges
Use only popular exchanges to trade cryptocurrency. In this case, you have a minimal chance of losing your bitcoins due to scam exchanges.
Quick exchange of Qiwi to BTC through the Exmo exchange
To your Exmo exchange account wallet:
You can quickly exchange your Qiwi money for Bitcoin cryptocurrency using the famous exmo cryptocurrency exchange. We won’t write how to register on the exchange and go through verification, it’s all intuitive. Log in to the exchange using your credentials and go to your wallet. Find the RUB currency and click the “Top up” button. You must log into your Qiwi personal account before starting the exchange.
Please note: Payments through terminals are not accepted. When paying through the terminal, funds will not be credited. The minimum replenishment amount is 1000 rubles, the maximum is 15000. The commission for replenishing the exchange balance is 4.95%.
Select a method to top up your Qiwi Wallet balance, enter the amount in rubles that you would like to exchange for Bitcoin in the future and click top up your balance.
Next, you will be redirected to the official website qiwi.com, where all the payment details have already been filled in.
Choose payment by “Wallet without commission”. Next, log in to your Qiwi wallet and select a ruble wallet for payment (if you have several currencies in Qiwi). After completing the payment, the money will be credited to the exchange balance within 24 hours, but usually within 10 minutes.
After the rubles have been credited to your balance, go to “Exchange” in the top menu, select I give - RUB, I receive - BTC. Enter the amount of rubles that you want to exchange for bitcoin and click “Exchange”.
Exchange to BTC occurs instantly. Now you need to withdraw your bitcoins from the exchange. To do this, go to your “Wallet” in the top menu of the exchange and click the “Withdraw” button opposite BTC.
Specify your Bitcoin wallet, the number of Satoshi to withdraw and click “Withdraw”. Wait for the coins to arrive at your address, the withdrawal time depends on the congestion of the Bitcoin network and the number of unconfirmed transactions in the meme pool.

This is how Qiwi is exchanged for Bitcoin through the Exmo exchange.

Why am I highlighting this as an output method? Because you can indicate that you want to receive payment for your bitcoins in a Qiwi wallet. And in general, this method has a place because it is quite convenient and allows you to set your own conditions. But for the latter you need enough “Internet charisma” and the ability to bargain.
If you decide to transfer bitcoins this way, then the first thing to understand is that the last step is yours. Never put yourself at risk of losing your money out of the blue. The advantage of this method is the immediate receipt of funds and the absence of commissions. The downside is a very high risk of fraud. Also, such a transaction will not be completely anonymous.
Exchange
A reliable, relatively fast and simple way to withdraw funds from a Bitcoin wallet on Qiwi. Cryptocurrency exchangers operate without mandatory registration 24/7. Of course, there are risks, but let’s take a closer look at this option and figure out how to minimize these risks or eliminate them altogether.
How will you look for an exchanger? Probably a Google search for “bitcoin exchangers” or something like that. First, you will encounter advertising that is not always related to the subject of the request, and then you will see links to exchangers. But where is the guarantee that these exchangers are reliable? Crawlers do not have the task of determining the risk level of a site: they exclude spam and advertising. Therefore, you should not always rely on the first search results.
What to do? You know, when you drive around the city, you see different currency exchange offices and, if something happens, you can evaluate their conditions. But you can’t surf the Internet that easily; you also need to check reliability and reviews. For such cases, monitors of cryptocurrency exchangers were created.
I think the best of them are Okchange and Bestchange. They collect information from across the web and present it in a convenient way. The exchange rate, commission and reserve of any exchanger are displayed on these monitors. They also monitor any unexpected changes on the exchanger, such as the appearance of some shares.

How to choose an exchanger
Bestchange offers more than 20 different services when requesting a Bitcoin transfer to Qiwi. As I understand, you are interested in a service with the most favorable withdrawal conditions. You should choose according to the following criteria:
- commission;
- exchange rate;
- reliability;
- transaction speed;
- reviews.
The exchange rate will always be slightly lower than the market rate. Reliability and reviews are essentially interconnected, I think there is no need to explain. I see that you are already choosing the service with the lowest commission. There's no need to rush.
The speed of the transaction depends on the commission. If the fee is too small, it means that the exchange service provider will still use some of your money during the transfer. This means the withdrawal may take several hours, or even days. Are you interested in this? I think not.
In addition, look at the number of confirmations required for the exchange. Typically, the exchanger will indicate this information when you send your funds to the service’s wallet. The more confirmations required, the longer the transfer will take.
