A swap into Tether is the most common first leg of a crypto-to-crypto trade on HIROPAY, precisely because so many other assets on TRC-20, ERC-20 and BEP-20 quote their price against it rather than against a second volatile coin such as Bitcoin, Ether or BNB.
Tether (USDT) runs on the Multi-chain (TRC-20, ERC-20, BEP-20) network. USDT exists on several networks: TRC-20 (TRON) is usually the cheapest, BEP-20 (BNB Smart Chain) comes next, and ERC-20 (Ethereum) remains the most expensive.
Against USDC, USDT remains the most liquid and most widely accepted stablecoin on global exchanges, especially outside the United States. Some platforms subject to the EU MiCA regulation restricted USDT starting in 2024, with no effect on its everyday use outside the European Union.
