Tether (USDT) is a stablecoin designed to track the US dollar. This is the TRC-20 version issued on Tron.
Before you swap ADA to USDT
- Send ADA on Cardano only — your deposit address is generated for Cardano (starts with addr1).
- ADA is also listed on BNB Chain, but this swap only watches Cardano: ADA sent from another network won’t be detected.
- Your wallet adds the Cardano network fee on top of the amount you send, so keep a little extra ADA.
- Cardano adds a block about every 20 seconds and your deposit is credited after 20 confirmations on Cardano, so expect a few minutes to confirm on Cardano + manual payout.
- Send between 20 and 500,000 ADA; the widget won’t create a swap outside this range.
- USDT (TRC20) is a token on Tron (contract TR7NHq…Lj6t), so you need an address on Tron to receive it (starts with T).
- USDT is also listed on Ethereum, BNB Chain, Solana, Polygon, Arbitrum One, Base. This pair pays out on Tron only — make sure your wallet or exchange account accepts USDT on Tron. Funds sent on a network your wallet doesn't support can be hard or impossible to recover.
- The payout is USDT only. Moving it out of that wallet later costs a network fee paid in TRX, so you will need some TRX on Tron too.
Swapping the other way? Deposits of 20–100,000 USDT are credited after 20 confirmations on Tron: a few minutes to confirm on Tron + manual payout. Use the USDT (TRC20) to ADA exchange page.
Fees and exchange rate
ShadowSwap adds no spread or service fee: the ADA → USDT rate is the ratio of their live USD prices, with USDT valued at exactly $1. Your wallet pays the Cardano fee for the deposit in ADA; the Tron network fee for sending your USDT is deducted from the payout. The USDT amount is calculated when you create the swap and saved on your order. See how ShadowSwap fees work.
FAQ: ADA to USDT
A few minutes to confirm on Cardano + manual payout. Your ADA deposit is credited after 20 confirmations on Cardano, where a block is added about every 20 seconds; payouts are not automatic, so the ShadowSwap team then sends your USDT on Tron.
On this page, USDT is sent on Tron (token contract TR7NHqjeKQxGTCi8q8ZY4pL8otSzgjLj6t). You need an address on Tron to receive it — starts with T. To move it later, that wallet also needs some TRX.
ShadowSwap does: your ADA goes to a one-time Cardano deposit address that ShadowSwap controls until the team sends your USDT. Check the address, network and amount before you send.
