USDT is issued on various blockchains. To avoid unfortunate mishaps, users need to know how to differentiate wallet addresses on each blockchain.
Here are some ways to differentiate:
Check the first characters of the address: USDT addresses on Ethereum start with "0x", USDT addresses on Tron start with "T", etc. Networks like BNB Chain, Polygon, Heco, Fantom, Avalanche C-chain, etc., use the Ethereum virtual machine, so their wallet addresses resemble ERC-20 addresses. If users mistakenly send tokens from an exchange to one of these chains, they just need to add the corresponding network in their wallet and enter the token's smart contract to display it on the wallet.
Check the transaction token code: Each USDT transaction has a unique token code. Users can rely on this code to determine the blockchain where the transaction took place.
