How to swap BTC to USDT
A simple step-by-step guide for swapping BTC to USDT, including what to check before you send funds.
To swap BTC to USDT, start on the BTC to USDT route page, check the quote, confirm the receiving wallet, and then send the BTC deposit from your wallet.
The main things to double-check are the destination network for USDT, the deposit amount, and the wallet details you enter before you continue.
Step by step
- Choose BTC as the asset you send and USDT as the asset you receive.
- Check the destination network for USDT before you copy the wallet details.
- Review the quote and send only the requested deposit amount from your wallet.
- Track the payout status until USDT arrives in the destination wallet.
What to check before you send
BTC confirmations can affect how fast the route moves forward. If the network is busy, the swap can take longer than the first estimate.
USDT can exist on different networks, so it is important to choose a destination network that matches the wallet you plan to use.
