To @peptideusername and everyone else:

With the Exodus wallet, I'm trying to send USDT using the Solana network, but the only network options available are Ethereum and Tron. Do you use a different wallet instead?

 

[Calm Logic]

Found the answer. I needed to change the settings in Assets:



So I enabled SOL as an asset/network for USDT. I disabled the other networks for USDT to make things more foolproof.

I am so glad that you posted this. I just downloaded exodus and I was having the same issue. I finally took the plunge into crypto after watching a couple of videos on stairway...thanks for the info!

I have more stupid questions:

Is USDT on SOL different from USDT on ETH or TRON? am I just picking a network to move the coin on or do i need to pick a lane when purchasing and stick t it all the way through?

 

[Calm Logic]

Yes. Choose the same lane/network when purchasing or you will have to swap.

Not a stupid question! I was learning all of this in the last couple of weeks. Best to stick with one for now or else you will continue losing $ in fees every time you swap. I just kept googling until I was able to put it all together in my brain, LOL I wish it was as simple as gathering all of the change in my pockets together for a grand total!

Adding to what others have said.

It's best to think of USDT-sol, USDT-erc20 (ETH), and USDT-trc20 (Tron) as completely different things.

For example, it's easier and cheaper to change USDT-sol into SOL than it is to change it into USDT-erc20.

Someone needs to create an app called COBOL Crypto to make crypto even more "interesting," with a text-only interface for COBOL commands. And you can only type in the wallet address, in binary, so it is even longer as just ones and zeros. I would order a lot less often and save money 😀

So it looks like the only Tether you buy on Coinbase is all ERC(ETH)

now all I gotta do is get Coinbase to let go of the hold they have on my $ SMH

Yeah, if you want anything SOL the easiest way is through venmo or paypal since PYUSD is part of the SOL network. So you can transfer PYUSD to your exodus wallet and then use the Jupiter Web3 app to convert to anything else on the SOL network for a few pennies.

If you're in Coinbase be sure to not fall for their "Base" network! I don't know of any vendor who accepts Base.

Like their specific coin, the way Crypto . com has their own? I bought BTC (bc I got a $50 promo in BTC) and used it to buy USDT, transferred the first batch to Exodus and hopefully will be able to send the rest tomorrow

It's a network. When you transfer crypto to your wallet you might be prompted to use it. Buy a bit of Eth or Sol to cover the minuscule fees you'll incur.

Just a tip if you're using Bitcoin. It's volatile so pay in the exact Bitcoin amount the vendor quotes, not the dollar amount. This removes any ambiguity in the transaction. Bitcoin moves on it's own network.

So I’m getting ready to buy BTC via my cash app account I already have and send it to my exodus wallet. I have never dealt with crypto before so this does make me nervous. Will I have to wait for the payment from cashapp to clear into my exodus wallet? Or it is pretty much instant? Or should I just use the exodus wallet to buy the BTC as well as pay for my order with it?

 

[Calm Logic]

Not instant by any means. Cash App has different priority options for sending. It's worth paying the extra few dollars so you don't sweat it out long. I think the highest priority is $4, which is what I would use.

You can buy it directly from exodus. For a test I bought about 80 bucks worth and it gave me almost 78 worth in 2 minutes. When u purchase peps then it's decentralized and no one controls ur money there so in theory what you do with exodus funds is anonymous and can't be frozen. In reality if you were a really good criminal they know where every penny is and could seize you're 27 million.

I was just looking through exodus. Seems like it might be better to just use my debit card and purchase through there. One less step to get my crypto. I’ll probably end up going that route to see how I like it. Thanks!
