Choosing a stablecoin network on Binance when you fund recurring Bitcoin buys
How to pick the right network when sending USDT or USDC to Binance for regular purchases: matching the sender and receiver, reading the deposit screen, and what to do when a deposit does not appear.

Many people fund a recurring Bitcoin plan by sending stablecoins from another wallet or exchange to Binance. The same token, such as USDT, exists on several blockchains, and an address on one network is not automatically valid on another. Choosing the network is therefore a matching exercise: the sender and Binance must both support the same one, and you must pick it on both sides. Getting this right once and writing it down makes every later top-up routine.
Read the deposit screen on Binance first
In the Binance app, go to Wallet, tap Deposit, choose the stablecoin and then select a network. Binance shows the deposit address for that network, along with notes about minimum deposit and expected confirmations. If a network is temporarily suspended, it is marked there. Only after you have chosen the network here should you go to the sending wallet. Taking the address first and the network second is how many mistakes happen.
Match the network on the sending side
In the sending wallet or exchange, select exactly the same network name. Similar-looking labels can refer to different chains, so compare carefully. Paste the address and check the first and last characters. Some networks or tokens require a memo or tag in addition to the address; if the Binance deposit screen shows one, you must include it, or the deposit cannot be credited automatically.
Weigh cost and speed honestly
Networks differ in transfer cost and confirmation time, and both change with traffic. The withdrawal fee charged by the sending platform is shown on its own withdraw screen; read it there each time rather than relying on old figures. For a recurring plan, a network that is slightly more expensive but supported reliably on both ends is usually a better choice than the cheapest option that occasionally breaks.
When a deposit does not arrive
First, find the transaction ID on the sending side and check it in a block explorer for that network. If it has enough confirmations but nothing shows in Binance, open Wallet, then Transaction History, and look at pending deposits. If it is still missing, use the self-service deposit inquiry in the help center or chat with support, giving the transaction ID, network and amount. Never share your seed phrase with anyone offering to help.

- Select the network on the Binance deposit screen before copying the address
- Choose the identical network name on the sending side and include any memo shown
- Search the transaction ID in a block explorer before contacting support about a deposit
