Swap Tether (USDT) (USDT) to Bitcoin (BTC)

Swapping Tether (USDT) to Bitcoin (BTC) is the standard way to rotate a stablecoin balance back into hard money. Monivo prices the route across connected providers — from USDT on Tron, Ethereum, Solana, BNB Chain or an L2 — and the provider you select settles native BTC to your own wallet in one step, with no exchange deposit, order book or withdrawal queue.

Fixed rate or floating rate for USDT → BTC?

Fixed rate

The BTC amount is locked when you confirm. The provider carries the market risk while your USDT deposit confirms, so the payout matches the quote as long as you send on time and within the quoted limits. Best when you need certainty on the exact amount received.

Floating rate

The swap executes at the market rate when your USDT deposit lands. It can pay out more BTC than a fixed quote, but the final amount can move up or down while the deposit confirms.

Network fees explained

Sending USDT

USDT send costs depend on the source network. Tron (TRC-20) is roughly a dollar, Solana and L2s are cents, and Ethereum (ERC-20) pays live gas. Send from the network your USDT is already on — bridging first usually costs more than the difference.

Receiving BTC

The Bitcoin payout is broadcast and paid for by the routing provider, so nothing needs to be pre-funded. You receive native BTC on the Bitcoin network — never a wrapped token.
