Swap Bitcoin to USDT. No account, no KYC.
CoinVast swaps BTC to USDT in one payment: paste a Tron address, send Bitcoin, and after 2 confirmations we screen the deposit, exchange it at a 0.5% floating or 1.0% fixed spread, and send Tether straight to your wallet.

Sometimes you just want the number to stop moving. Bitcoin went up, or Bitcoin went down, and either way you would like some of it parked in something that is worth a dollar today and a dollar on Thursday. That is the whole trade. It is the most common swap in crypto by a comfortable margin.
The usual way to do it involves an exchange account, which means the usual ritual: documents, selfies, waiting, and a balance that lives in someone else's database. For a one-off conversion that feels like renting a bank vault to store an umbrella. So we built the boring version. Paste an address, send Bitcoin, receive Tether. Done.
We pay out USDT on Tron by default because TRC-20 transfers are fast and cost almost nothing, which matters when the entire point of a stablecoin is not losing money on the way. If you would rather have it on Ethereum or as a TON jetton, switch the network right on the card. Same flow, different rail.
And the quote you see is the quote you get. Our spread sits at 0.5% floating or 1.0% fixed, printed next to the network fee before you send a single satoshi. No zero percent fee theater with the cost buried in the rate.
BTC → USDT, by the numbers
- You send
- Bitcoin (BTC) on the Bitcoin network.
- You receive
- Tether (USDT) on the Tron (TRC-20) network, at an address you control.
- Deposit confirmations
- 2 on Bitcoin. At roughly 10-minute blocks, that is about 20 minutes of waiting before the exchange starts.
- Minimum swap
- 0.0002 BTC. Below that, network fees would eat too much of the swap to be worth it.
- Spread
- 0.5%, printed on the quote next to the payout network fee. There is no deposit fee.
- Typical total time
- About 20 to 35 minutes from sending your BTC to USDT arriving at your address.
Confirmation counts and minimums above are the live values our exchange engine uses, not marketing copy. Block times are network averages and can vary.
Three steps. One of them is just waiting.
- 01
Set the amount, paste your USDT address
Choose how much BTC you are sending. The card quotes your USDT payout with the spread and network fee already counted in. Paste the Tron (TRC-20) address the payout should land at, plus an optional BTC refund address in case the swap cannot complete.
- 02
Send one BTC payment
You get a deposit address on the Bitcoin network. Send your BTC to it from any wallet, in one payment of at least 0.0002 BTC. No account, no email, nothing to install.
- 03
Watch the order page
Your deposit needs 2 confirmations on Bitcoin, about 20 minutes. We screen it before the exchange starts, then send USDT to your address and post the transaction hash on your order page.
Why people move BTC into USDT
Taking profit without leaving crypto. Selling BTC for actual dollars means a bank, an exchange account, and usually a tax conversation sooner than you wanted one. Converting to USDT locks in the dollar value while keeping the money on-chain, ready to deploy the moment you change your mind. Traders have used this parking spot for a decade and the logic has not aged.
Riding out the rollercoaster. Crypto winters are long and bitcoin drawdowns are violent. Plenty of people keep their savings in BTC but move a working slice into USDT when the charts get spicy. The swap back is one payment in the other direction, and we handle both ends of that round trip.
Paying people who want stability. Freelancers, suppliers, and friends in countries with wobbly currencies often ask to be paid in USDT specifically. It moves like crypto and counts like dollars. Converting a slice of BTC to Tether on Tron costs pennies in network fees and lands in minutes.
Now the honest part, because there always is one. USDT is issued by Tether, a centralized company. They can freeze specific addresses when law enforcement asks, and the peg relies on their reserves being what they say they are. That is the deal you accept for stability, and you should accept it with open eyes. If centralization bothers you, this is the wrong coin to hold long term. As a parking spot and a payment rail, it remains the most liquid stablecoin on earth.
We launched CoinVast in 2026 to make exactly these one-off conversions painless. Screening happens before the exchange starts, so your deposit either proceeds or returns to your refund address. Nobody freezes your coins mid-swap while a compliance inbox catches up.
BTC to USDT, asked and answered
How long does a BTC to USDT swap take?
Count on 20 to 35 minutes. Your Bitcoin deposit needs 2 confirmations, which is about 20 minutes at one block every 10 minutes. The exchange itself takes seconds, and the TRC-20 payout typically lands within a couple of minutes of being sent. Tron blocks are about 3 seconds, so the receiving side is the fast part.
Which USDT network should I pick?
Tron (TRC-20) is the default here because transfers cost almost nothing and confirm fast, which suits a stablecoin. Pick Ethereum (ERC-20) if the wallet or service receiving it only speaks Ethereum, and accept the higher network fee that comes with it. The TON jetton version works too if your wallet lives in that ecosystem. Whatever you choose, make sure the receiving address actually matches that network. A TRC-20 address starts with T, an Ethereum one with 0x.
Can Tether freeze my USDT?
Tether the company can freeze specific addresses, and has done so at the request of law enforcement. That is a property of centralized stablecoins, not of CoinVast. Our pre-send screening means your swap itself will never be held hostage by us, but what USDT does after it lands in your wallet follows Tether's rules. If that tradeoff bothers you, consider what you hold long term.
Is the rate better with fixed or floating?
Floating carries a 0.5% spread and fills at the market rate when your Bitcoin confirms, which takes about 20 minutes. Fixed carries 1.0% and locks the number you see at creation. Since you are converting into a dollar-pegged asset, most people pick floating and pocket the smaller spread. Fixed makes sense if Bitcoin is moving fast and you want tonight's price, not the price 20 minutes from now.
Do I need an account or ID to swap BTC to USDT?
No. No sign-up, no email, no KYC under the screening threshold. You paste an address, send one payment, and bookmark the order page as your receipt. Deposits are screened before the exchange begins: pass and it proceeds, fail and your coins return to your refund address minus the network fee.
What is the minimum BTC to USDT swap?
0.0002 BTC. Below that, the Bitcoin network fee starts eating a silly share of the swap. There is no upper limit baked into the card, though unusually large swaps can be held for a human look before the exchange starts, never after. If you are testing us, a small swap just above the minimum is the sensible way to do it.
What about taxes when I swap BTC for USDT?
In many countries a crypto-to-crypto swap is a taxable event, including swaps into stablecoins. We are a swap service, not your accountant, and we do not know who you are anyway. Keep your own records: the order page shows amounts, the rate, and transaction hashes, which is exactly what a tax tool wants to see.
