Exchange in 3 steps
-

What do you need to know?
- Deposits on SPL on Solana follow that chain's confirmation times.

- Double-check the network on your order page before you send.
- BTC not visible yet? Wait a few minutes, resync your wallet, then contact support with your order ID if the payout tx is already listed.
Tether on Solana
Always match USDT on SPL on Solana when you send or receive — wrong-network transfers may not be credited.
Before you send
Use a wallet that supports SPL on Solana.
Verify the deposit network on your order page matches your wallet.
Bitcoin — the original digital asset
Since 2009, Bitcoin has been the benchmark cryptocurrency — deep liquidity, wide recognition, and the default on-ramp for cross-chain swaps.
When is my BTC spendable?
After your payout transaction receives the confirmations shown on the order page — typically one or more blocks depending on route.
Checking your BTC payout
- Open the order page and copy the payout transaction hash into a Bitcoin block explorer.
- Confirm the destination address matches your wallet exactly — including case and format.
- Most wallets show incoming BTC after one confirmation; some exchanges wait for more.
