About XRP and Tether
XRP (XRP) launched in 2012 — Payments, secured by Federated consensus. The supply is capped at 100,000,000,000 XRP. For XRP deposits we wait for 1 confirmation(s) on XRP Ledger, which usually takes about 1 min.
Tether (USDT) launched in 2014 — Stablecoin, secured by Token on another chain. There is no fixed maximum supply of USDT. For USDT deposits we wait for 20 confirmation(s) on TRC-20, which usually takes about 1 min.
Swapping XRP to USDT on noaml does not require an account. We quote the rate from multiple liquidity sources, include our 0.25% fee, and send the USDT directly to the address you provide. The minimum order is around $200 in XRP; there is no fixed maximum for manual orders.
USDT exists on several blockchains. We send and receive USDT on TRON (TRC-20) by default — check which network your wallet uses in our guide USDT TRC-20 vs ERC-20.
