# How to sell crypto

Crypto (USDT included) is traded on exchanges, and in this chapter we'll be taking a closer look at how to do so on <mark style="background-color:yellow;">**Bybit**</mark>. In order to convert say USDT into real money, you need first to transfer them to your **Bybit deposit address** and then sell them via **P2P trading platform**.

1. **Log into your Bybit account** on the mobile app. If you don't have an account on Bybit yet, feel free to refer to [this chapter](https://docs.walken.io/crypto-trade-for-beginners/how-to-register-on-bybit) for a detailed guide on how to register on Bybit.
2. Now let's find the *correct wallet address* to **deposit the tokens** to ahead of trading them. In our case, your *Bybit USDT wallet address* (**SOL network**) to which you'll deposit your USDT. It may be a bit daunting for a first-time experience, please pay attention and you'll make it. Open the Bybit app and at the bottom of the main screen, tap ***Assets*** (screen 1) → ***Deposit*** (screen 2) → Select ***USDT*** (screen 3) → *Tether USDT* → Select ***SOL Network*** (screen 4-5) → ***Copy the address*** under the QR code (screen 6). See the picture below for illustration:

3. Now you can proceed to **withdrawing your crypto to Bybit** to be traded for real money. With the address copied to clipboard (from the previous step), go back to the ***Walken app** -->* *swipe to find USDT wallet* --> tap the ***Withdraw*** button on it --> ***paste your Bybit deposit address*** --> enter the *amount* of tokens --> after double-checking the info, press ***Send***. The deposit will be performed directly via your Bybit *spot account*.

> **Please make sure the address you send tokens to is correct**. There will be no way to recover funds sent to the wrong address.<mark style="background-color:green;">**IMPORTANT: in order to withdraw tokens from the app, you'll need to pay blockchain gas fee in SOL. It is recommended to have at least 0,003 SOL on your wallet to power up any blockchain transaction. Refer to**</mark> [<mark style="background-color:green;">**this guide**</mark>](https://docs.walken.io/crypto-trade-for-beginners/how-to-buy-usdwlkn) <mark style="background-color:green;">**if you need to buy SOL and send them to your Walken wallet.**</mark>

4. Your USDT is now deposited on your Bybit account. To check them, tap ***Assets → Spot***.
