Choosing the right network

USDT and USDC exist on several blockchains, also called networks or chains. The same coin on two networks is two separate balances. Scrya only reads the balance on the network named on your request, so the address you enter has to hold your funds on that network.

Where to find the network

  • Each asset on your request has a network badge next to it, for example USDT with Tron. The signing step’s heading names it too, for example “USDT on Tron — Address Verification”.
  • If you add an asset yourself with Add address, choose USDC or USDT, then pick the network under Chain for USDC or Chain for USDT.

Supported networks

NetworkUSDCUSDTExplorer
EthereumYesYesEtherscan
TronNoYesTronscan
SolanaYesYesSolscan
BNB Smart Chain (BSC)YesYesBscScan
PolygonYesYesPolygonScan
Arbitrum OneYesYesArbiscan
BaseYesNoBaseScan

The other assets each have one network: BTC on Bitcoin, ETH on Ethereum and SOL on Solana. ETH held on Arbitrum One or Base can’t be verified.

On Polygon and Arbitrum One, Scrya reads native USDC issued by Circle. Bridged USDC, often labelled USDC.e, is a different token and isn’t counted.

USDC on Tron is no longer offered because Circle, which issues USDC, has ended support for it. If your request asks for USDC on Tron and you haven’t verified it yet, add USDC on another network with Add address, or ask the business to change the request. See Supported assets and networks.

Address formats

  • Ethereum, BNB Smart Chain, Polygon, Arbitrum One and Base use 0x followed by 40 characters (0–9 and a–f). Capital letters don’t matter.
  • Tron addresses start with T and are 34 characters long.
  • Solana addresses are 32–44 letters and numbers with no prefix. Capital letters matter.
  • Bitcoin addresses start with 1, 3 or bc1. Capital letters matter, and bc1 addresses are all lowercase.

Scrya checks the format, but a valid format doesn’t tell you where your funds are.

One 0x address, separate balances

Your 0x address is the same on every one of these five networks, but each network keeps its own balance. Say you hold 500 USDT on BNB Smart Chain and none on Ethereum. A request for USDT on Ethereum will accept your address, but it’ll find a zero balance.

How to tell which network your funds are on

  1. Check your wallet. Most wallets show which network a token balance is on.
  2. Check where the funds came from. If you withdrew from an exchange, the withdrawal record names the network. Common labels are ERC-20 (Ethereum), TRC-20 (Tron), BEP-20 (BNB Smart Chain) and SPL (Solana).
  3. Use Search explorer in Scrya. On the signing step, enter your address, then click Search explorer and Search on …. Scrya shows the balance on your request’s network. Address has no on-chain activity means nothing is on that network at that address.
  4. Look up the address on each network’s explorer (listed in the table above). Each explorer only shows its own network.

If the network on your request is wrong

You don’t need to move your funds. Contact the business that sent the request and tell them which network your funds are on. If the request is still open, you can also use Add address to add the asset on the right network.

Troubleshooting

  • Your address is rejected, or no message to sign appears. The address doesn’t match the network’s format. It may be from a different network, such as a T… address on a request for USDT on Ethereum, or have a missing character or extra space.
