ETH to USDT is a core cross-chain pair available through multiple protocols on LeoDex. Whether you're exiting an ETH position or locking in USD value, this pair has deep liquidity across Chainflip, THORChain, NEAR Intents, and 1inch.
Best Protocol for This Pair
For same-chain swaps (ETH USDT on Ethereum), 1inch typically offers the best rate via DEX aggregation. For cross-chain (ETH to USDT on Arbitrum or TRON), NEAR Intents and Relay offer the lowest fees. Chainflip routes through its ETH-USDC pool with a secondary USDC→USDT leg.
Tip: Specify which chain you want to receive USDT on. USDT on TRON has the lowest transfer fees afterward. USDT on Arbitrum is cheapest for DeFi use.
