Tunnel in 3 steps

  1. Choose how much USDT to send and paste the Cardano address that should receive funds on Cardano mainnet.

  2. Open the order to freeze the quote and reveal a one-time deposit destination.

  3. Broadcast USDT to that destination. Once confirmations clear, ADA is pushed to your payout wallet.

Before you broadcast

  • ERC-20 USDT follows Ethereum confirmation times.
  • Send USDT on Ethereum mainnet only — not Tron TRC-20.
  • Leave ETH in your wallet for gas when sending ERC-20 USDT.
  • Still waiting on ADA? Give the wallet a few minutes to sync, then share your Exchange ID with support if the order already lists a payout hash.
