Which USDT network should you pick?
Choose based on where you’ll move or use USDT next. Here’s a quick guide:
| Network | Typical fees | Speed | Best for | Address format |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| TRC20 (Tron) | Very low | Fast | Frequent transfers, low cost | Starts with T… |
| ERC20 (Ethereum) | Higher during congestion | Moderate‑Fast | Max DeFi compatibility | Starts with 0x… |
| Solana (SPL) | Very low | Very fast | Cheap, rapid settlement | Base58 (no 0x) |
| Polygon | Low | Fast | EVM apps and bridges | Starts with 0x… |
| TON | Low | Fast | TON ecosystem transfers | Often UQ…/EQ… |
Recommendation: If fees matter most, TRC20/Solana/Polygon are great. If you need broad Ethereum DeFi access, choose ERC20.
What “no KYC” means here
- You don’t create an account or upload documents for standard swaps.
- You stay in control until you send BTC to a one‑time deposit address.
- For safety, swaps are screened by automated risk systems. In rare cases, an order can be paused or refunded under our AML policy.
Fees, timing, and limits (plain‑English)
- Service + network fees are shown up front in your quote.
- BTC confirmations: Your swap sends once the required confirmations arrive.
- Timing: Most swaps complete shortly after confirmations; network congestion can add delay.
- Minimums/maximums: Displayed in the widget and can change with market/liquidity.
Prices
Pro tips from support
- Match the network: address and network must align (TRC20 vs ERC20 etc.).
- Don’t underpay/overpay: send the exact amount to avoid recalculation.
- If your quote expires, just start a fresh one—no penalty.
- Sending from exchanges can be slower due to batching; self‑custody wallets broadcast faster.
Common gotchas to avoid
- Pasting an ERC20 address while choosing TRC20 (or vice versa)
- Using too‑low BTC miner fees, causing slow confirmations
- Missing a memo/tag on networks that require it (follow widget instructions)
- Waiting past the timer, then sending late
