Frequently asked questions
Find quick answers to the most common swap questions
What is the difference between USDC and USDT when swapping stablecoins?
USDC and USDT are both USD-pegged stablecoins, but they differ in issuer, transparency, and reserve structure. USDC is issued by Circle and is known for frequent attestations and regulatory compliance, making it popular in DeFi and institutional use. USDT, issued by Tether, is the most widely used stablecoin with deep liquidity across exchanges and blockchains. Swapping USDC to USDT often improves trading pair access, liquidity depth, and compatibility with centralized and decentralized platforms.
Is swapping USDC to USDT taxable or considered a crypto event?
In many jurisdictions, swapping one crypto asset for another (even stablecoin-to-stablecoin) is considered a taxable event because it’s a crypto-to-crypto conversion. Since both USDC and USDT aim to stay near $1, gains are usually minimal, but you should still track transaction history, fees, and timestamps for accurate reporting. Always check local crypto tax regulations or consult a tax professional.
What are the fees and risks when converting USDC to USDT?
Fees depend on the blockchain (Ethereum, Tron, Solana, etc.), liquidity pool slippage, and platform service fees. Gas fees can be high on Ethereum but lower on networks like Tron or Solana. Risks include smart contract vulnerabilities, depegging events, and bridge risks if moving across chains. Using reliable platforms and aggregators can help minimize these risks.
What is the best way to swap USDC to USDT across chains?
You can swap USDC to USDT via centralized exchanges, decentralized exchanges (DEXs), or cross-chain bridges. DEX and bridge aggregators like Rango help find the best route, lowest fees, and optimal liquidity across multiple chains, simplifying multi-chain swaps and reducing manual steps.
