Fixed rate or floating rate for USDT → ETH?

Fixed rate

The ETH 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 ETH than a fixed quote, but the final amount can move up or down while the deposit confirms.

What to check before swapping USDT to ETH

On a USDT to ETH swap, mistakes almost always come from the source network. Match the USDT deposit network exactly to the network your USDT is held on.

Match the USDT deposit network: If your USDT is TRC-20, select the TRC-20 route; if it is ERC-20, select ERC-20. Sending USDT on a different network than the deposit address expects can delay or prevent recovery.
Hold gas for the USDT send: Your wallet needs ETH to send ERC-20 USDT or TRX/energy to send TRC-20 USDT. Without it the transfer to the deposit address will not broadcast.
Receive native ETH: Enter an Ethereum-mainnet address you control. Confirm whether the quote pays ETH on mainnet or another listed network before sending.

Network fees explained

Sending USDT

Sending USDT costs the gas token of its network: ETH for ERC-20 USDT, TRX (or energy) for TRC-20 USDT. Make sure the sending wallet holds enough of that token before you start.

Receiving ETH

The provider pays the Ethereum payout transaction, so you do not need ETH beforehand. Later transfers from the receiving address will need ETH for gas.

How long does a USDT to ETH swap take?

Swaps average under 10 minutes; the exact time depends on Tether network confirmations.

No. Monivo is non-custodial — provide a Ethereum address and swap directly from your wallet.

What's the minimum USDT to ETH swap?

Minimums are set by the underlying liquidity provider and shown live before you confirm a quote.

Can I swap TRC-20 USDT directly to ETH?

Yes, when a provider quotes the TRC-20 route. You send USDT on Tron and receive native ETH on Ethereum — no bridge step on your side.

Why won’t my USDT send to the deposit address?

Usually the wallet lacks gas: ETH for ERC-20 USDT or TRX/energy for TRC-20 USDT. Top up the gas token and try again.

No. The provider pays for the Ethereum payout. You only need ETH for later outbound transactions.
