3. Moving funds onward
If you want your USDT to arrive on a different chain or as USDC, you can request a Relay deposit address below (for example USDT on BNB Chain) and use it as the CoinEx withdrawal address. Use your own wallet as the refund address and test a small amount first. Withdrawing to your own wallet is always the simplest option.
