There will be network fees associated with sending your crypto, depending on the asset you are trying to send, so please check you’ve got enough to cover those!
You'll need Ethereum (ETH) stored in your wallet to cover the cost of sending ERC-20 tokens
If you don’t have any Ethereum (ETH) in your wallet you may see an error message stating that you do not have enough Ethereum (ETH) to cover network fees. Please purchase Ethereum (ETH) to proceed with your send
Native tokens needed to send
When sending tokens like USDT or USDC, it's important to understand which token standard they follow. This determines the blockchain they’re on, and what native cryptocurrency is needed to pay the gas (network) fees.
Note: Even if you're just sending USDT or USDC, you’ll need a small amount of the blockchain’s native token in your wallet to complete the transaction.
Quick reference guide
Token Standard | Blockchain | Required native token for network fees |
ERC-20 | Ethereum | ETH |
TRC-20 | TRON | TRX |
BEP-20 | BNB Smart Chain (BSC) | BNB |
SPL | Solana | SOL |
Example
If you're sending USDT (ERC-20), you will need ETH in your wallet to pay the network fee.
