How the swap works
-
Type the USDT amount and paste your THORChain payout address on THORChain mainnet.
-
Press Exchange to open the live quote and the deposit address for this order.
-
Broadcast USDT to that deposit. After the required confirmations, RUNE is sent to your wallet.
Check these before you send
- TRC-20 USDT confirms quickly on Tron β usually within a minute or two.
- Never send USDT on the wrong network. TRC-20, ERC-20, and other variants are not interchangeable.
- Keep a small TRX balance in your wallet to pay Tron energy/bandwidth for TRC-20 sends.
- If RUNE has not appeared yet, wait a few minutes and refresh the wallet. When the order already shows a payout tx, contact support with your order ID.
Tether β USD-pegged stablecoin
USDT tracks the US dollar and is widely used for trading and transfers β always pick the chain listed on the order (TRC-20, ERC-20, and others are not the same).
USDT network mismatch
The most common error is sending ERC-20 USDT to a TRC-20 address or vice versa.
Double-check the network badge on your order before sending.
THORChain
Credit RUNE only on THORChain mainnet. A transfer on any other chain will not show up on this order.
When RUNE arrives
Set your wallet to THORChain mainnet.
If the order already lists a payout tx, wait a few minutes and resync before contacting support.
Read before you send
Wrong-network deposits and address mistakes are the usual failure modes β start with these notes.

Frequently asked questions
Does USDT to RUNE require KYC or an account?
No. PeakSwap does not ask for a profile, ID documents, or a hosted balance for Tether to THORChain.
How long until RUNE arrives?
Many orders finish in a few minutes. TRC-20 on Tron deposit confirmations and THORChain mainnet payout time set the wait.
Do you hold USDT or RUNE for me?
No. You send USDT from a wallet you control and RUNE is paid to the address you provide β PeakSwap does not keep a user wallet.
What if I send USDT on the wrong chain?
Use TRC-20 on Tron exactly as shown on the order. A wrong-network send may not be credited β read the swap safety notes first.
