📊 What is USDT?
USDT (Tether) is a stablecoin pegged 1:1 to the US dollar, widely used in Venezuela as a store of value.
📈 Step 1: Create an account on an exchange
Register on Binance, and other platforms. Complete identity verification to unlock all P2P functions.
🔎 Step 2: Go to the P2P section
Select the USDT/VES pair and filter by your preferred bank. Compare prices across different merchants.
💰 Step 3: Start the transaction
Choose a merchant with a good reputation, enter the amount, and follow the payment instructions.

📊 What is the P2P spread?
The spread is the difference between the USDT buy price and the USDT sell price in the P2P market. A smaller spread indicates higher liquidity and competition.
📈 How to calculate the spread
Spread = Buy price - Sell price. For example, if you buy for Bs 745 and sell for Bs 740, the spread is Bs 5.
🔎 Factors that influence it
Market liquidity, competition between exchanges, and the country’s economic conditions directly affect the P2P spread.
💰 How to minimize the impact

📊 Common warning signs
P2P scams often show clear signs: merchants with low reputation, unusually low or high prices, and requests to communicate outside the platform.
📈 Merchant verification
Always verify the completion percentage, the number of completed orders, and the average response time before starting an operation.
🔎 Data protection
Do not share sensitive information outside the official exchange platform. Use only the communication channels provided by the platform.

📊 What is the Risk Evaluator for?
The Risk Evaluator analyzes multiple factors of a P2P transaction and assigns you a score that indicates the risk level before you confirm the transaction.
📈 Evaluated factors
Merchant price, reputation, time on the platform, transaction volume, payment method used, and market conditions.
🔎 Score interpretation
80-100: Low risk. Safe operation. 50-79: Moderate risk. 0-49: High risk. Consider looking for alternatives.

📊 What is the USDT vs BCV premium?
The premium is the percentage above the official BCV rate at which USDT is quoted in the P2P market. A high premium indicates greater demand for foreign currency.
📈 How to calculate the premium
Premium = ((P2P Price - BCV Rate) / BCV Rate) × 100. For example, if BCV is 549 and P2P is 740, the premium is 34.8%.
🔎 Factors that influence it
The supply and demand for foreign currency, inflation expectations, the availability of dollars in the formal market, and exchange regulations directly affect the premium.

PitbullChain’s P2P Calculator allows you to estimate profits, spreads, commission costs, and the premium vs. BCV before you carry out your trades.
