Swap

Choose your networks and amount, then continue in the Satora app to add your receiving details and complete the swap.

Turn your USDT balance into Bitcoin

You do not need to deposit USDT on a centralized exchange and request a separate BTC withdrawal. Prepare the swap here, then fund it from your wallet in the Satora app.

Your destination determines how you receive Bitcoin. On-chain, Lightning and Arkade use different receiving details; none of these options gives you a wrapped Bitcoin token on an EVM chain.

How atomic swaps and timelocks work
  1. 01

    Match your Tether balance

    Choose the source network and check whether your wallet holds USDT or USDT0.

  2. 02

    Select your Bitcoin wallet

    Choose on-chain, Lightning or Arkade and enter a USDT amount or a target BTC amount.

  3. 03

    Review and fund in the app

    Add the receiving details, check the quote and approve only the funding actions you understand.

Choose the networks that match your wallets

Ethereum USDT by default
The page starts with USDT on Ethereum. If your funds are on another supported network, change the source before requesting a quote. An Ethereum selection cannot spend funds held on a different chain.
USDT0 on supported networks
USDT0 options keep their own token names and network identifiers. Select the exact asset you hold; the app may include additional routing steps for that network.
Receive on-chain BTC
Use a Bitcoin receiving address from your wallet. Allow for settlement and confirmations rather than treating the quote as an immediate wallet balance.
Receive through Lightning or Arkade
Select the network your wallet supports and provide the corresponding receiving details in the app. Lightning payment destinations and Arkade addresses are not interchangeable.

USDT is not the same route on every chain

The token name alone does not identify your funds. Check the network in your sending wallet before selecting a route. USDT on Ethereum and USDT0 on another network use different contracts and funding paths.

This matters especially when moving funds out of a service. If you first need to withdraw to your own wallet, check the withdrawal network and fees before preparing the Satora swap.

Compare the BTC you will receive

Enter the amount you want to send and compare the quoted BTC output. Fees and routing can differ between networks, so a service-fee percentage alone does not describe the full cost.

The app refreshes your quote before funding. Review it with the receiving details and current limits; no swap is executed by entering an amount on this page.

Before you swap

Can I send USDT from TRON?

This page does not offer a TRON/TRC20 source. Select only a network listed in the module and fund with that exact asset. Do not send TRC20 USDT to EVM funding instructions.

Is USDT0 treated as USDT on Ethereum?

No. The module preserves the selected network and token identifier. USDT0 on another chain must not be funded as though it were Ethereum USDT.

Will I need gas for USDT approval?

Your wallet may require a token approval and network fees before funding. A gasless claim on the other side does not automatically make the source approval gasless. Review the app and wallet prompts.

What fees will I pay?

Satora charges a 0.5% service fee, plus applicable network fees. Check the final BTC amount and any source-wallet transaction fees before funding.

Can I receive Bitcoin directly on Lightning?

Choose Lightning in the BTC selector and follow the app's receiving instructions. Availability of a quote does not guarantee that every wallet or invoice can receive the payment; wallet limits and payment routing still apply.

What happens if my funded swap gets stuck?

Follow the status and recovery instructions for that swap. Keep the recovery material and access to the funding wallet. Depending on the route, recovery can require a waiting period and network fees.
