USDC is Trady’s balance currency. You hold it per chain — a Solana USDC balance and an EVM USDC balance — and move value between them with the built-in bridge when a play lives on the other chain.
How balances work
- Deposits credit the balance of the chain they arrive on: send on Solana → Solana balance; send on BNB → EVM balance.
- Buys spend from the balance of the token’s chain; sells return proceeds to that same chain’s balance.
- Transfers between your wallets, Consolidate & Distribute, and withdrawals are all same-chain only.
The bridge
Moving USDC between your Solana and EVM balances happens in-app, in one click — no external bridge sites, no wrapped-token gymnastics, no 15-minute settlement roulette.
- Fee: 0.50% of the bridged amount, minimum $0.50. ($500 bridged → $2.50; $60 bridged → min applies → $0.50.)
- The bridge moves USDC — to redeploy a memecoin position to the other chain, sell first, bridge, buy there.
Why USDC
A stable unit of account keeps every number honest: your balance doesn’t swing with SOL’s price, PnL means what it says, and position sizing in % of portfolio (the only sizing that matters) stays interpretable across chains.
Gas
You don’t need to pre-manage gas tokens on every chain to trade. Network costs are shown in the trade quote before you confirm.
Frequently asked questions
Can I hold SOL/BNB instead of USDC?
Yes — native tokens and any memecoins you buy are held as-is in your wallets; USDC is the buying-power layer.
Is the Trady USDC balance custodial?
No. Funds sit in your non-custodial wallets (export the keys anytime); the balance view and bridge are conveniences over them, not a pooled account.
Can I withdraw from the Solana balance to an EVM address?
No — withdrawals are same-chain. Bridge to the EVM balance first, then withdraw on the EVM side. Last modified on August 4, 2026
