USDT BEP20 → BCH: swap details at ROVEN exchange
If you hold USDT BEP20 and want Bitcoin Cash, you don’t need an exchange account. At ROVEN exchange the swap takes a few minutes: you see the final amount in advance, and an operator checks every order by hand.
USDT BEP20 is the Tether stablecoin on BNB Smart Chain, with fast and cheap transfers. Bitcoin Cash (BCH) is a 2017 fork of Bitcoin with bigger blocks and fees of a fraction of a cent.
Why swap USDT BEP20 for BCH
A stablecoin is a handy way to hold dollars, but to benefit from market growth or use the Bitcoin Cash network you need BCH itself. Bitcoin Cash was built for fast, cheap transfers, which makes it handy for payments.
Networks and addresses
| You send USDT BEP20 | You receive BCH | |
|---|---|---|
| Network | BNB Smart Chain (BEP20) | Bitcoin Cash |
| Address | “0x” + 40 characters | “q…” or “bitcoincash:q…” |
| Network speed | a block comes every few seconds | a block comes roughly every 10 minutes |

What to watch out for
- Send USDT on BNB Smart Chain (BEP20), not Ethereum — the addresses look identical.
- Use a CashAddr address (“q…”) so it can’t be confused with a Bitcoin address.
- To send USDT your wallet needs some BNB to pay the network fee.
- Send the exact amount from the order and do it within 30 minutes, while the locked rate is valid.
How long the swap takes
Swap speed depends on both networks. On BNB Smart Chain (BEP20), a block comes every few seconds; on Bitcoin Cash, a block comes roughly every 10 minutes. The whole USDT BEP20 to BCH swap usually takes 5 to 30 minutes once your transfer is confirmed.
The current rate is 1 BCH = 278.761905 USDT and the minimum amount is 20 USDT. Create an order in the form above, and ROVEN exchange will send swap updates by email or Telegram.
