Why USDT for USA eSIM?
Paying for a USA eSIM 5GB with a credit card is easy — unless you don't have one or want to avoid KYC. USDT (Tether) solves this: you buy eSIM data with crypto, no identity verification needed. But which USDT network is cheaper: ERC20 or TRC20?
The Price Difference
At our marketplace, the USA eSIM 5GB (30 days) costs $10 USDT. However, the network you choose affects the total:
- **TRC20 (Tron):** $0.50–$1.00 network fee. Total: ~$10.50–$11.00.
- **ERC20 (Ethereum):** $2.00–$5.00 network fee. Total: ~$12.00–$15.00.
TRC20 is clearly cheaper — up to 5x less in fees.
