Which network USDC arrives in
The same USDC goes out in several networks. Each has its own rate and its own floor, and the fee is charged by the network itself.

How the USDT Optimism → USDC BEP20 exchange runs
- Work out the amount in the calculator — orders start at 100.67 USDT Optimism.
- Give a USDC address on BNB Smart Chain (BEP20) and a contact for the order.
- Send USDT Optimism on Optimism, exactly the amount the order shows.
- Nothing else is needed from you: as soon as the network confirms the transfer, the robot sends USD Coin to your address. The order page shows the status.
Check this before sending USDT Optimism
- The address network is BNB Smart Chain (BEP20). Sending through another network almost always means losing the transfer.
- The transfer must not be smaller than 100.67 USDT Optimism.
- Copy the address in full, then check its first and last characters once it is pasted.
- Ethereum, Arbitrum, Optimism, BNB Smart Chain and Polygon addresses look the same (0x…) — make sure the wallet is switched to BNB Smart Chain.
- Keep a reserve of BNB at the same address — without it USDC cannot be sent on later.
- Send exactly the amount stated in the order: the automation matches your payment against it, and any difference sends the order back for recalculation.

How an exchange differs from an ordinary bridge
| Velorex | Ordinary bridge | |
|---|---|---|
| What arrives at the address | the USDC token in the BNB Smart Chain network | The very same stablecoin: turning USDT into USDC is one more operation |
| Wallet connection and signatures | We do without them: the payout goes to the address from the order | Mandatory: the wallet is connected, contract transactions are signed |
| Is a BNB Smart Chain coin needed for fees | Not required to receive | As a rule yes, otherwise the funds cannot be claimed or moved on |
| When it arrives | As soon as OP Mainnet (Optimism) gathers confirmations; the status is shown on the order page | Set by the bridge itself and by the load on both networks |
| Who holds the funds on the way | Velorex — until the order is closed by the payout | The smart contract of the bridge or its validators |
