Swap BNB from BNB Chain to USDT on Ethereum

Swap BNB from BNB Chain to USDT on Ethereum. You send native BNB on BNB Chain and you receive Tether USDT on Ethereum.

0xEeeeeEeeeEeEeeEeEeEeeEEEeeeeEeeeeeeeEEeE on the source means BNB, the gas coin on chain id 56. There is no ERC-20 approval. BscScan shows the native send. Blocks are about 3 seconds. Leave BNB for the fee. Tether on Ethereum is 0xdAC17F958D2ee523a2206206994597C13D831ec7, six decimals, on Etherscan. Chain id 1. USDT cannot pay ETH gas, so the destination needs ETH already.

No approval on the BNB you send

The gas-coin marker is not a contract you approve. This page will not pull Binance-Peg ETH, USDC, or USDT from BNB Chain. If those are the balances you meant, you are on the wrong route. Keep a BNB remainder for gas. Spending the entire native balance is how this send fails before it starts.

Tether arrives, ETH has to be there already

Match 0xdAC17F958D2ee523a2206206994597C13D831ec7 on Etherscan. It is Tether, not Circle and not DAI. Six decimals are normal for Ethereum USDT. The token does not include gas. A brand new Ethereum wallet will show USDT and still be unable to transfer it until you add ETH. BNB does not fill that gap.

Pegged ether is a different balance

The ETH symbol on BNB Chain is 0x2170Ed0880ac9A755fd29B2688956BD959F933F8. This page ignores it. Native ETH and WETH as payouts are different pages too. If you wanted dollars without leaving BNB Chain, buy USDT there. Ethereum is only the destination. The quote does not lock the Tether you will get.

A fast BNB Chain block is not the finish

Chain id 56 can include your send in about 3 seconds. That is not a delivery clock for Etherscan, and it is not a locked price. Read the minimum USDT. Ethereum blocks are about 12 seconds once you are on that side, still separate from the bridge. Sign on BNB Chain only. Reject a destination address you did not generate.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best way to swap BNB from BNB Chain to USDT on Ethereum?

0xEeeeeEeeeEeEeeEeEeEeeEEEeeeeEeeeeeeeEEeE on the source means BNB, the gas coin on chain id 56. There is no ERC-20 approval.

Why is the source address the same string people use for ETH?

Routers reuse 0xEeeeeEeeeEeEeeEeEeEeeEEEeeeeEeeeeeeeEEeE for whatever the gas coin is. On BNB Chain it is BNB. On Ethereum it would be ETH, but this page's payout is not that marker. The payout is Tether, 0xdAC17F958D2ee523a2206206994597C13D831ec7, on Etherscan. BscScan shows the BNB leaving. There is no ERC-20 approval on the BNB.

Does Tether on Ethereum use the same decimals as USDT on BNB Chain?

No. The USDT you receive uses 6 decimals. The USDT peg on BNB Chain uses 18, and this route is not even spending that peg. Read the quote in whole tokens. You still need ETH on chain id 1 to move the Tether after Etherscan shows it. BNB paid only the source fee.

What if I wanted USDC and the quote says USDT?

Stop. This page pays Tether only. Circle USDC is a different contract and a different route from the same BNB balance. Signing because the dollar amount looks familiar is the wrong tool. Check 0xdAC17F958D2ee523a2206206994597C13D831ec7 before you treat the wallet credit as the token a desk asked for.
