Questions, answered
How much does it cost to buy Tether right now?
At 2026-10-04 14:48 UTC, $1,000 of USDT cost $0.92 all-in at Binance (fee plus spread) — cheapest of 2 exchanges.
Why does the same Tether buy cost different amounts per exchange?
Fee schedules differ per exchange, and each order book carries its own spread; fee plus spread is the all-in cost compared.
Why the advertised fee misleads
Spread is a price, not a percentage.
0.10% on $1,000 is one dollar; the spread you cross is often more — ranked by USDT received. Method →
