To demonstrate how you can make sure you're selecting the correct network, let's use the example of USDG deposits. It's important that the withdrawal network for the other wallet or exchange platform is consistent with the deposit network for OKX. For example, if you select USDG-ERC20 as the deposit network, the withdrawal network should also be USDG-ERC20. The same idea applies to when you're selecting a withdrawal network. You must choose the same network for deposit.Published on 22 Aug 2023Updated on 2 Apr 202621,367
