How to Deposit MEMEFI on OKX? TON Meme Funding Tutorial
To deposit MEMEFI to OKX, the core steps are: first generate a USDT deposit address on OKX, then transfer USDT from an external wallet or exchange, and finally buy MEMEFI with USDT in the trading section. Note: MEMEFI is a Meme project token based on the TON chain; you cannot deposit it directly via the BSC network.

1. Pre-deposit Preparation: Confirm Which Chain Your USDT Is On
MEMEFI itself is a Meme token on the TON chain, but the MEMEFI/USDT trading pair on OKX only accepts USDT. You need to deposit USDT into your OKX account first, then use USDT to buy MEMEFI.
Step 1: Confirm which network (chain) your USDT is on
What to do: Look at the USDT you hold in your external wallet or another exchange and identify the chain it uses.
How to do it:
Case A (USDT in a wallet): Open your wallet (e.g., MetaMask, Trust Wallet) and check the network displayed for that USDT — common ones are ERC20 (Ethereum), TRC20 (Tron), BEP20 (BSC), SOL (Solana).
Case B (USDT on another exchange): The withdrawal page will show a "network" or "withdrawal network" option; use that as reference.
When you're done: You know exactly which chain your USDT is on, e.g. "TRC20-USDT" or "ERC20-USDT".
Prerequisite: You have registered and completed identity verification (KYC) on OKX. Unverified accounts cannot deposit or trade.
2. Step 1: Generate a USDT Deposit Address on OKX
Step 2: Go to the deposit page and select USDT
What to do: Open the OKX app or website and navigate to Assets → Deposit.
How to do it:
App: Bottom "Assets" → "Deposit" → search "USDT".
Web: Top right "Assets" → "Deposit" → choose "USDT".
When you're done: You have entered the USDT deposit page and see the list of available networks.
Step 3: Select the network that matches your USDT's chain exactly
What to do: Among the networks supported for USDT (ERC20, TRC20, SOL, OKC, etc.), choose the one that is exactly the same as the chain you confirmed in Step 1.
How to do it:
If you hold TRC20-USDT → select "USDT-TRON (TRC20)"
If you hold ERC20-USDT → select "USDT-Ethereum (ERC20)"
Do not select BSC: OKX currently does not support USDT deposits on the BSC network.
When you're done: The correct network is selected, and a deposit address (as well as a Tag/Memo, if displayed) appears on the page.
Step 4: Copy the deposit address (and Tag/Memo)
What to do: Copy the deposit address provided by OKX. If there is a "Tag" or "Memo" field, copy that as well.
How to do it: Click the "Copy Address" button. If a Tag/Memo is shown (common for TRC20 deposits), copy it too. Both are required.
When you're done: You have the complete address and, if needed, the Tag.
3. Step 2: Transfer USDT from an External Wallet/Exchange to OKX
Step 5: Initiate the transfer on the sending platform
What to do: Log into the wallet or exchange where your USDT is held and start a "withdrawal" or "transfer".
How to do it:
Paste the OKX deposit address you just copied into the recipient field.
Fill in the Tag/Memo (if required by the OKX deposit page).
Make absolutely sure to select a network that matches the one you chose on OKX. Choosing the wrong network will result in permanent loss of funds.
Confirm the amount and submit.
When you're done: The sending platform shows "Withdrawal successful" or "Transaction broadcasted", and you receive a transaction ID (TxID).
Step 6: Wait for the deposit to arrive
What to do: Wait for blockchain confirmations.
How to do it:
Confirmation times vary by network: TRC20 usually 5–30 minutes, ERC20 can take from 10 minutes to several hours.
You can check the real-time status in Assets → Deposit History on OKX.
When you're done: Your USDT balance in your OKX account has increased.

4. Step 3: Buy MEMEFI with USDT
Step 7: Go to the trading section and search for MEMEFI
What to do: Enter the spot trading area on the OKX app or website.
How to do it: Search "MEMEFI" and select the "MEMEFI/USDT" trading pair.
When you're done: You see the real-time MEMEFI price chart and order book.
Step 8: Place a buy order
What to do: Enter the amount of MEMEFI you wish to buy or the USDT amount you want to spend.
How to do it: Use a market order to buy at the current price, or a limit order to set your own price.
When you're done: The order is filled and MEMEFI appears in your asset list.
Common failure reasons:
Wrong network: This is the most common cause of lost deposits. Selecting BSC for USDT deposits will be rejected by OKX. Using an incompatible chain (e.g., sending TRC20 tokens to an ERC20 address) almost always results in permanent loss.
Missing Tag/Memo: Some chains (such as TRC20) require a Tag or Memo for deposits. Omitting it or entering it incorrectly can lead to failed or lost deposits.
Risk reminders:
Assets sent on the wrong chain are extremely difficult to recover: If the network does not match during the transfer, the funds are very likely lost.
For first-time deposits, test with a small amount: Send a minimal amount of USDT first to verify the process works correctly, then transfer your main position after confirming it arrives.
Keep your transaction ID (TxID) safe: If your deposit is delayed or missing, the TxID is the most critical piece of evidence when contacting customer support to recover your funds.
How to confirm your deposit was successful after completing the steps above?
Open the OKX app and go to "Assets" → "Funding Account" to check whether your USDT balance has increased. Then go to "Deposit History" and verify that the deposit status shows "Completed" (meaning the required number of blockchain confirmations has been reached). Once you confirm that the USDT has arrived, you can go to the trading section and buy MEMEFI. If more than 30 minutes have passed and the deposit still hasn't arrived, contact OKX customer support with your TxID.
