What USDT is: an educational guide for Guatemala
USDT (Tether) is a stablecoin issued by Tether, designed to stay close to 1 US dollar, based on reserves the issuer reports.
How it works
USDT exists on several networks, including Tron (TRC-20), Ethereum (ERC-20) and Solana. Each network has its own address format and fees.
Main risks
Dependence on the issuer and its reserves, possible drift from the peg, lost funds from sending on the wrong network, and the issuer’s ability to freeze addresses.
Best practices
Always confirm the network with the recipient, send a test transaction before a large amount, and store your keys securely.
