## From an Internet Computer account to ERC20 USDT

ICP to USDT ERC20 suits Internet Computer users who want a dollar stablecoin held on Ethereum, for example after a neuron has finished dissolving. ICP lives on the Internet Computer, where accounts are 64-character account IDs, while the USDT is paid to a 0x Ethereum address. No account is needed.

The Internet Computer finalizes the ICP deposit within seconds, and the USDT payout confirms on Ethereum within a few minutes. The payout is Tether on Ethereum. It is not ckUSDT, the chain-key version of USDT that lives on the Internet Computer.

### Tips

- Paste an Ethereum address (0x plus 40 hexadecimal characters). An ICP account ID or principal cannot receive ERC-20 USDT.
- Send ICP from the NNS dapp, Plug or OISY, and enter that wallet's 64-character account ID as the refund address. The principal ID, the one with dashes, is rejected.
- ICP staked in a neuron cannot be sent until the neuron has fully dissolved and you have disbursed the ICP to your account.

### Can I swap ICP to USDT without KYC?

Yes. Standard swaps need no account, email or ID. Paste your Ethereum address, check the floating rate and send the ICP.

### Does the ICP transfer need a memo?

No. GhostSwap does not ask for a memo for ICP. Send the ICP to the deposit account ID exactly as shown.
