Swap BTC to USDT TRC20, or back
Send BTC from a Bitcoin wallet or an exchange to a one-time address, and USDT on TRON goes to the T-address you paste. The BTC price keeps moving while your deposit confirms, so the USDT amount is an estimate until the swap runs.

Before you send
- Copy a TRON address for the USDT: it starts with T and is 34 characters long. Receiving at an exchange? Open its USDT deposit page and pick TRON (TRC20) as the network.
- The form asks for the Bitcoin wallet you're sending from. If the swap can't go through, the BTC goes back there, so give a wallet of your own, not an exchange's.
- Your deposit address is a Bitcoin address. Withdrawing from an exchange? Pick the Bitcoin network (sometimes BTC or SegWit), not Lightning or BNB Smart Chain.
- Bitcoin blocks come about every 10 minutes on average, and a send with a low network fee can wait longer. An order waits 45 minutes for a coin deposit, so send soon after you create it, with a normal fee.
- Some exchanges batch BTC withdrawals or hold them for checks, so the BTC can leave later than you click Withdraw.
- The minimum is set per direction and moves with the BTC price. The form shows the live one.
After it lands
- USDT arrives at your TRON address. Receiving it needs no TRX.
- To send it on later from your own wallet, you'll need TRX (or staked energy) for the TRON fee.
- Your order page links to the payout on Tronscan once the swap completes.
Going the other way
- Paste a Bitcoin address: bc1q, bc1p, 1 or 3 at the start. Copy a bc1 address in lowercase, the way wallets show it.
- Check it's a Bitcoin address: Bitcoin Cash and Litecoin addresses can start with 1 or 3 too, and BTC sent to one can be lost. Lightning invoices aren't accepted.
- The form asks for the TRON wallet you're sending the USDT from, for a refund if the swap can't go through.
- Your deposit address starts with T. Send USDT on TRON (TRC20) only, from a wallet with TRX or energy for the fee, or from an exchange.
How every Flipperr swap works
- Fees are inside the estimate. The “You get” amount already has Flipperr's fee and the network fee for sending to you in it. Nothing is added on top.
- The rate floats: the estimate moves with the market until your deposit is swapped. The final amount can differ a little on USDT and USDC, and more when a coin is involved.
- Each order has a one-time deposit address and a window to send: 10 minutes for USDT or USDC, 45 for a coin.
- Your exchange or wallet charges its own fee to send the deposit, separate from our estimate. If it takes that fee out of the amount you send, less arrives, and a short deposit can put the swap on hold until support sorts it out. Add the fee on top so the full amount arrives.
- While the swap runs, your tokens are with our liquidity partner. It can pause a swap it flags as risky and ask you to verify.
- A USDT or USDC swap usually takes a few minutes, and a coin on a slower network can take longer. Busy networks can slow any swap down, and the order page shows every stage.
Other ways to do this
- An exchange that lists BTC and TRC20 USDT can do this in three steps: deposit the BTC, sell it for USDT, withdraw on TRON. That needs an account (usually with KYC), and the trading fee and withdrawal fee are separate.
Questions about this route
- Can I send BTC straight to a TRC20 address?
- No. A Bitcoin transfer only goes to a Bitcoin address, and a TRON address starts with T. To end up with USDT on TRON, the BTC has to be swapped, which is what this page does.
- Why did I get a little less USDT than the estimate?
- The rate floats. The estimate follows the BTC price until your deposit is swapped, and a Bitcoin deposit takes a while to confirm, so the price has time to move either way. Check the amount again right before you send.
- Which Bitcoin addresses can receive?
- Native SegWit (bc1q), Taproot (bc1p) and the older addresses that start with 1 or 3. Paste a bc1 address in lowercase. Lightning invoices aren't supported.
- How long does BTC to USDT take?
- Longer than a USDT swap: the BTC has to confirm on the Bitcoin network first, and blocks come about every 10 minutes on average. A busy network or a low fee makes it slower. Your order page shows every stage.
- Can I get the USDT on another network?
- Yes. Pick USDT on BNB Smart Chain, Ethereum, Polygon, Arbitrum or Solana as the side you get, or USDC. Off TRON, the form may not ask for your Bitcoin wallet: on those routes a refund normally goes back to the wallet the BTC came from.
