No bridge. No wrapped BTC. Just an ordinary BTC transfer to a Cambio Bitcoin address, and an ordinary USDT payout straight to your wallet.
Live rate, no account, and an order ID to track it — or skip the form and just tell our AI the swap you want.
BTC → USDT
Live rateNo accounts, no waiting. Tell Cambio what you want, send your BTC, and the USDT lands in your wallet in under a minute.
Type "swap 0.01 BTC to USDT on Tron" into the composer. The AI parses your intent, confirms Bitcoin as the deposit chain and Tron as the destination, and returns a live quote with the chain-aware spread floor (0.60% on Bitcoin-side deposits) within 200 milliseconds.
Cambio generates a one-time Bitcoin deposit address for your order (bech32 format, starts with bc1q). Send your BTC to that address. Pay a reasonable miner fee — typical confirmation in 10–30 minutes; under-fee transactions can sit in the mempool for hours.
Once your BTC deposit gets its first confirmation, Cambio settles and pays out USDT to your destination wallet using the TRC20 contract. The two transactions are completely independent — no bridge attestation, no wrapped BTC anywhere. End-to-end usually 10–30 minutes, dominated by Bitcoin confirmation time.
Live quotes from every exchange that answered, at exactly this size: BTC → USDT on TRON
Cambio delivers the most here — 0.62% more than SimpleSwap, and it stated its network fee, so this figure is after that fee rather than before it. It is also the fastest, at about 11 minutes.

Network fee — a stated amount is what the exchange returned, and the figure shown is after it. “included” means the exchange’s own price already contains its network fee, not itemised. “not stated” means its API returned no fee, so that amount is a ceiling rather than a promise.
Every row is what that exchange would pay for this exact size, quoted live from its own API at the time shown and ranked by what lands in your wallet. The bar is each row’s all-in cost against the market rate at that moment, drawn to one scale — ours included.
Bitcoin is a UTXO chain: your BTC deposit has to be mined, and until it confirms it can still be replaced. Cambio waits 2 confirmations before sending your USDT, so the Bitcoin side sets the pace here, not the Tron side.
USDT on Tron is a token, so sending it also needs Tron's own coin for gas. Cambio funds that separately, which is why the USDT side is capped by what the wallet holds rather than by a policy number.
Floor on Tron: 0.35%. Below that the corridor stops covering settlement.
USDT on Tron carries 6 decimals, so every amount on this page is quoted to that precision and no further.
Cambio waits 2 confirmations on Bitcoin, then sends the payout immediately. End to end this corridor typically takes ~11 min.

Two different assets, two different on-chain stories. Here’s the minimum you should know before you send anything.
Bitcoin is the original cryptocurrency and the largest crypto asset by market capitalization. The Bitcoin network is slower than EVM chains and Solana — confirmations typically take 10 minutes per block, with most exchanges waiting for 1 to 3 confirmations before crediting. Cambio waits for 1 confirmation before paying out, which is the standard for instant exchanges at this swap size.
USDT is a US-dollar-pegged stablecoin issued by Tether. The TRC20 version lives on the Tron network and is the most popular destination for users moving out of BTC into stablecoins — Tron transfers are cheap, fast, and supported by every major exchange.

No. There is no bridge contract in this flow on the Cambio side. You send BTC to a Cambio Bitcoin address. We send USDT to your Tron wallet using the TRC20 contract. The two transactions never reference each other on-chain — the relationship lives only in our order book. No wrapped BTC (WBTC, renBTC, anything), no bridge validator set, no cross-chain message. Your BTC is your BTC until it lands at our Bitcoin deposit address, and your USDT is sent to your Tron wallet.
Usually 10 to 30 minutes total, dominated by Bitcoin confirmation. Bitcoin produces a block roughly every 10 minutes; Cambio waits for 1 confirmation before paying out. The Tron payout itself confirms in about 3 seconds once we trigger it. If your deposit transaction is paying a low miner fee during a busy mempool period, confirmation can take longer.
No account or sign-up is needed. Every swap is screened against sanctions and on-chain risk lists; in line with applicable law and our risk-based AML policy, identity verification may be requested where screening flags elevated risk.
There is no fixed per-swap cap. The most you can send on this pair is shown in the table above and recalculated on every quote, so it always reflects what we can settle right now.
Bitcoin confirmation depends on the miner fee you paid. If you paid a low fee during a busy mempool, your transaction may sit unconfirmed for hours. Most modern Bitcoin wallets support replace-by-fee (RBF) which lets you re-broadcast the same transaction with a higher fee to speed it up. If RBF is not available, the transaction will eventually confirm or expire after roughly 2 weeks.
Chain-aware spread (0.60% floor on Bitcoin), live-market pricing, and a live competitor strip that lets you verify our claim against five other exchanges. Cross-chain pairs from Bitcoin are where Cambio's pricing wins most clearly — most competitors run a wrapped-BTC bridge under the hood and pass the wrapping cost on to you. Cambio settles natively — no bridge, no wrapped BTC.
