Can I use ERC20 USDT to buy Genshin Impact CN top-ups?

Yes, but you'll pay higher network fees (average $2–$4 per transaction). TRC20 is cheaper.

What if my wallet only supports ERC20?

You can still buy, but we recommend converting to TRC20 via an exchange like Binance to save on fees.

How long does TRC20 payment take to process?

Typically under 2 minutes after network confirmation.

Do I need to verify my identity to buy with USDT?

No KYC is required. Just send USDT from any wallet.

What is the minimum USDT amount for a top-up?

You need at least 0.8 USDT extra to cover the TRC20 network fee. For example, a $4.99 Welkin Moon requires 5.79 USDT.

Genshin Impact CN server: ERC20 vs TRC20 — Which is Cheaper?

Why USDT Payment for Genshin Impact CN Server?

If you're an overseas Chinese player trying to top up Genesis Crystals on the Genshin Impact CN server (Bilibili or miHoYo), you've likely hit a wall: no Chinese bank card, no WeChat Pay, no Alipay. USDT is the lifeline — no KYC, no cards needed. But which network should you pick: ERC20 or TRC20? The difference is in your wallet.

ERC20 vs TRC20: The Cost Breakdown

**ERC20 (Ethereum)**: Gas fees have dropped since 2025, but as of March 2026, a typical transfer costs $1.50–$3.50 per transaction. For a $5 Genesis Crystal top-up, a $3 fee means you're losing 60% to network costs. Not ideal.
**TRC20 (Tron)**: Fixed fee of 0.8 USDT per transfer (no gas fluctuation). For that same $5 top-up, you pay just $0.80 — a 5x saving. Even for $50 top-ups, TRC20 is still cheaper.

Real Prices: What You Actually Pay

At our marketplace, as of March 2026:

**Welkin Moon (300 Genesis Crystals + 90 daily)**: $4.99 USDT via TRC20, $4.99 + ~$2 ERC20 fee = $6.99.
**Gnostic Hymn (Battle Pass)**: $9.99 USDT via TRC20, $11.99 via ERC20.
**6480 Genesis Crystals (max top-up)**: $79.99 USDT via TRC20, $82.49 via ERC20 (assuming $2.50 ERC20 fee).

Prices are inclusive of our service fee — no hidden charges.

Why TRC20 Wins for Small & Large Orders

**Predictability**: TRC20 has a flat 0.8 USDT fee regardless of amount. ERC20 fluctuates with ETH gas, which can spike to $10+ during congestion.
**Speed**: TRC20 confirms in seconds; ERC20 can take minutes to hours.
**Availability**: Most USDT wallets (Binance, OKX, Trust Wallet) support both, but TRC20 is simpler.

Final Verdict: TRC20 is Cheaper for Every Top-Up

Unless you're moving large sums ($500+), TRC20 saves you money and hassle. ERC20 only makes sense if your wallet doesn't support TRC20 — but most do. For Genshin CN players, stick with TRC20.
