This guide is written for first-time users. The easiest path is: buy USDT and TRX on an exchange, send them to a personal wallet app, then send them to your Bidream app wallet.
TRON is commonly used because TRC-20 transfers are usually cheaper than many other networks. Fees change, so always check the fee shown by your wallet or exchange before confirming.

1. Understand the Simple Flow
USDT is the asset you use to participate in auctions. TRX is the gas fee coin used on the TRON network.
Think of USDT as the money you want to move, and TRX as the delivery fee paid to move it on the TRON network.
| Step | What You Do |
|---|---|
| Exchange | Buy USDT and enough TRX for gas fees. |
| Personal wallet | Receive USDT and TRX after wallet verification. |
| Bidream app wallet | Copy the TRON receive address and send USDT and TRX to it. |
| Auction | Choose TRON as the payment network and participate. |
2. Buy USDT and TRX on a Major Exchange
Use a major virtual asset exchange that supports USDT and TRX withdrawals. Current top-ranked spot exchange examples include Binance, Coinbase Exchange, and Upbit.
Buy the amount of USDT you want to use in Bidream. If you plan to use the TRON network, also buy TRX because TRX is needed for network fees.
Exchange availability, withdrawal rules, identity checks, and wallet verification methods differ by exchange. Follow the rules shown inside the exchange you use.
3. How Much TRX Should You Prepare?
TRX fees are not charged per 1 USDT. They are charged per transaction, so the same transfer may cost a similar amount of TRX whether you send 1 USDT or 100 USDT.
As a beginner-friendly buffer, prepare at least 30 TRX for one USDT transfer, and keep extra TRX for later Bidream app actions such as auction participation. Fees can change, so this is a safety buffer, not a fixed fee.
| Transfer Example | Example TRX Fee Buffer | Fee Compared to Amount |
|---|---|---|
| Send 1 USDT | Prepare about 30 TRX | The fee feels large compared with the amount sent. |
| Send 100 USDT | Prepare about 30 TRX | The fee is much smaller compared with the amount sent. |
Sending a larger amount of USDT at once can be more efficient because the gas fee is paid per transaction. Only send an amount you are comfortable moving, and check the final fee before confirming.
4. Send Assets to a Personal Wallet App
Install and set up a personal wallet app such as MetaMask or D'CENT. Complete the wallet setup and keep your recovery phrase private.
From the exchange, withdraw USDT and TRX to your personal wallet address. Some exchanges require wallet verification before withdrawal. The exact verification method is different for each exchange, so follow that exchange's instructions.
When withdrawing USDT on TRON, select the TRON or TRC-20 network. The network selected on the exchange must match the network supported by the receiving wallet.
5. Send USDT and TRX to the Bidream App Wallet
Open the Bidream app and go to Wallet. Tap the network area at the top and select TRON.
Tap Receive, then copy your Bidream TRON wallet address. In your personal wallet app, paste this address and send USDT to the Bidream app wallet.
Send TRX to the same Bidream TRON wallet as well. TRX is needed for gas fees when you move assets and when you participate in auctions through the TRON network.
6. Join an Auction in the Bidream App
After USDT and TRX arrive in your Bidream app wallet, open the auction you want to join.
Tap the participation button, choose TRON in the payment network, review the details, and submit your bid.
Keep extra TRX in your wallet so that future auction participation and wallet actions do not fail because of insufficient gas fees.
