Swapping ETH to USDT (Ethereum for Tether) is simpler than most newcomers think. Pick a service with a fair rate, create the order and wait for the transfer. Below — where to swap cheaper and what to watch out for.
The exchange process
Find a good ETH/USDT rate, create a request, send Ethereum. The exchanger sends Tether to the address or account you provided. The whole thing usually takes a few minutes, occasionally up to half an hour when the blockchain is busy.
What affects the rate
The ETH to USDT rate is the market price plus the exchanger's fee. The bigger and more reliable the service, the tighter the spread tends to be. Sharp market moves are a reason to double-check the numbers before sending: the rate can shift while you're filling out the order.
Keeping your funds safe
Before a ETH/USDT swap, double-check the details — blockchain transactions are irreversible. Don't trust exchangers with no reviews or history. And remember: your wallet key is for you alone, no service ever needs it.
