Tunnel in 3 steps
-
Choose how much DAI to send and paste the Tether address that should receive funds on TRC-20 on Tron.
-
Open the order to freeze the quote and reveal a one-time deposit destination.
-
Broadcast DAI to that destination. Once confirmations clear, USDT is pushed to your payout wallet.
Before you broadcast
- Deposits on ERC-20 on Ethereum follow that chain's confirmation times.
- Send only on ERC-20 on Ethereum — other networks are not interchangeable.
- Double-check the network on your order page before you send.
- Still waiting on USDT? Give the wallet a few minutes to sync, then share your Exchange ID with support if the order already lists a payout hash.
Dai on Ethereum
Always match DAI on ERC-20 on Ethereum when you send or receive — wrong-network transfers may not be credited.
Before you send
Use a wallet that supports ERC-20 on Ethereum.
Verify the deposit network on your order page matches your wallet.
Tether — dollar-pegged stablecoin
USDT tracks the US dollar and is widely used for trading and transfers — always match the correct chain (TRC-20, ERC-20, etc.).
Receiving USDT on the correct chain
Your wallet must support the exact USDT network listed on the order.
If funds were sent on the wrong chain, recovery may not be possible — verify before you send.
When will USDT arrive?
Most TRC-20 payouts land within minutes once your deposit confirms.
- Check the order page for a payout transaction hash before opening a support ticket.
- Refresh or resync your wallet if the balance has not updated after a few minutes.
- Tron confirmations are typically much faster than Bitcoin or Ethereum mainnet.
Why traders swap into USDT
USDT offers dollar-like stability without leaving crypto — useful between trades or during volatile markets.
TRC-20 USDT on Tron keeps transfer fees low, making it a common destination after swapping from BTC, ETH, or alt L1s.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need KYC to swap DAI for USDT on TunnelSwap?
No. TunnelSwap is an anonymous no-KYC, privacy-first exchange. There is no account, no ID upload, and no standing balance for Dai → Tether swaps.
How fast is a DAI → USDT swap?
Most routes settle within minutes. Final timing follows ERC-20 on Ethereum deposit confirmations and TRC-20 on Tron payout speed.
Does TunnelSwap hold my DAI or USDT?
No. You fund the deposit from your wallet and USDT is sent straight to the address you paste — non-custodial, wallet to wallet.
What if I use the wrong network for DAI?
Only send on the network shown for the order (ERC-20 on Ethereum). Wrong-chain deposits can be unrecoverable — review the safety guides before you broadcast.
