Common questions: USDT Optimism → KITE
What rate does USDT Optimism to KITE run at?
As of Sep 30, 2026 16:20 it is 1 USDT Optimism = 7.1377 KITE. The figure updates on its own, and the calculator always shows the current one. On the market that is around $1.00.
What amounts does USDT Optimism → KITE accept?
From 100.67 to 10,000,000 USDT Optimism per order. The floor is roughly $100.63.
Why can I not swap less than 100.67 USDT Optimism?

Which network will KITE arrive in?
Kite arrives in its own Kite network — a plain KITE address is all you need.
What happens if the rate moves while I am paying?
Nothing: the rate is locked in the order and holds for as long as the order is alive. It is recalculated only if the payment arrives late or for a different amount — so send the exact sum, and send it promptly.
