USDT to ADA FAQ
Do I need to connect an OP Mainnet wallet?
No. The exchange issues a deposit address on OP Mainnet and you send USDT to it from MetaMask, Rabby, Ledger or an exchange withdrawal. Nothing is signed in the browser.
How long does USDT on Optimism to ADA take?
Usually a few minutes from the moment your USDT deposit confirms. The quote shows an ETA for this exact route before you send anything.
Which Cardano address can receive the ADA?
Any Cardano address, an addr1… Shelley address. Only addr1… addresses are accepted.
Do I get real ADA?
Yes. The payout is an ordinary Cardano transaction to your address. It is not a wrapped token on another network and there is no claim step.
What happens if the swap fails after I send USDT?
The USDT is refunded on OP Mainnet and the order page shows the refund status. A failed route does not leave funds stuck halfway.
