Cryptocurrencies have revolutionized the world of finance. By leveraging blockchain technology, they provide a secure and fast way to store and transact value.

Whether you’re looking to send money to friends and family or pay for goods and services online, cryptocurrencies offer a convenient alternative to traditional payment methods. As newbie one of your first tasks will be learning how to send crypto from one wallet to another. This guide provides an overview of the steps involved in sending crypto from one wallet to another.

Send Crypto

Step 1: Select the Token

You've already set up MetaMask or another crypto wallet, and managed to get crypto in your wallet. However, before sending any funds, it is important to know the blockchain or network on which the recipient's wallet operates.

For instance, you want to send USDT on the Ethereum network. In this case, you would need to ensure that the recipient's wallet address is a valid Ethereum address of his wallet, and that your wallet is also connected to the Ethereum network.

When you're sending crypto within the same blockchain or chain, then all crypto coins will have the same deposit address in recipient's wallet. For example, all Ethereum-based tokens like ETH, DAI, and USDT have the same deposit address in the recipient's wallet because they are on the Ethereum blockchain

Step 2: Select the Crypto Currency

Now select the crypto currency (i.e.,USDT) you want to send on Ethereum chain to another wallet. Open that crypto coin in your wallet and click Send.

Step 3: Add Deposit Address

Add the deposit address now, select the amount you want to send. Review the gas fee and click Next.

Step 4: Double Check Address and Confirm Transaction

MetaMask ask you to double check the address and all other information. Next click Confirm.

Afterward, you'll be navigated to the main page where a list of recent transactions are displayed in the Activity tab so that you can stay informed.
