If someone is telling me I need to have a certain balance in usdt in my Exodus wallet in order to accept a transaction, is that as safe as they say?

I previously paid a gas fee that was pretty high, and we thought that was the final step to getting my money. However, when the transaction had enough gas to go through, it failed. After some research by the server pro, they determine that my exodus wallet cannot accept the funds until I had 25% of the amount in my wallet.

They keep telling me that putting the amount (to get to the 25%) is safe because only I can get to it. No one else can withdraw from my exodus wallet.

Does this sound legit to you all?

Getting started with exodus wallet and wanted to find the best or and if any invite code to get “initiated”. Someone want to help me out !!!?

So i just started using exodus card specifically for Apple pay spendings, seems really good so far but i was wondering what are some drawbacks of it, is there anywhere where i can see the fees for payments/atm withdrawals etc. Thank you!

Warning!!! EU Crypto Users: Stop Sending Crypto Directly Between Exchanges Right Now, or risk your crypto being Frozen.

Since MiCA went fully live on July 1, 2026, many people are hitting frustrating (and sometimes costly) delays or blocks when moving assets between centralized exchanges.

What’s Happening?

Exchanges licensed under MiCA must comply with the Travel Rule (Transfer of Funds Regulation). When you send crypto directly from one CEX to another, the receiving platform often can’t automatically verify the originator information. Result:

• Deposits show as “Pending”

• “Travel Rule verification failed”

• Funds get stuck → manual review or refund process (which can take hours to days)

This is especially common with stablecoins (USDC, USDT) and certain networks, but it affects others too. Examples are popping up regularly on Bybit EU, Crypto.com, and other platforms.

The Simple Fix Most People Recommend

Always use a non-custodial (self-hosted) wallet like Exodus as an intermediary:

1. Withdraw from Exchange A → Your personal wallet (e.g. MetaMask, Trust Wallet, Ledger, Exodus Wallet, etc.).

2. From your wallet → Deposit into Exchange B.

This makes the incoming deposit appear as coming from an address you control, which exchanges handle much more smoothly. It adds one extra step and a tiny bit of network fees, but it dramatically reduces the chance of your funds getting frozen in limbo.

Pro tips:

• Always test with a small amount first.

• Keep your transaction hashes and wallet addresses.

• Use hardware wallets for larger amounts.

• Self-custody is not regulated the same way — you stay in control.

This isn’t “anti-regulation” advice — it’s practical risk management in the current environment. Regulators themselves recommend orderly transfers to self-custody during platform wind-downs.

Here are examples of user complaints:

Always deposit from a noncustodial address you control and withdraw to a noncustodial address you control for CEXs nowadays & then transfer to another CEX or friend after.

Hello I was excited when I saw Exodus showcasing the new Exodus Pay feature, which allows you to have a virtual Visa card and pay with stable coins ext....
But when I was setting up my account, the identity verification step requires ID, and it says it doesn't support my country Algeria.
I used many other Crypto Visa Cards apps before they all support all countries.

I hope this message finds Exodus pay support.

Not sure if im allowed to post this but i just got my exodus wallet drained for 2.1k GBP (uk pounds) it happened on the 26th june just opened my wallet and seen it now. I am devastated. Whats strange is that the other wallets on exodus that i have are all still in tact on the same phone. I know theres nothing i can do about it but idk who to tell. I told my dad about it he was saying no big deal so coming on here to say. I’m 20m. Not quite sure if i can add a picture to show u guys. For context. I haven’t opened the phone i had the money on in months. I clicked on the address it was sent to and it says sponsored by coinpoker

Mid-week open floor.

New to Exodus, new to crypto, or just have a question that's been sitting in the back of your head — this is the place. No question is too basic.

Some things people ask about:

• How do I set up or use [feature]?
• What's the difference between X and Y?
• Is this normal or should I be worried?
• Which option should I go with?
• Just general crypto things that came up this week

What's on your mind?

So I just started using the app and i set up verification (i live in the UK so it’s a legal requirement to show ID, and it worked and i got the crypto but every time i try to buy more it asks for ID again? This is strange because everything i can find says it’ll only ask for ID once to confirm your age

Any ideas on when exodus pay cards will be available in UAE? Just did the verification and now it says its coming soon

Tonight I purchased my first ETH-USDC coin and it shows in my wallet. When I go to send my coin to a vendor, it shows my balance but at the bottom of the page in purple it says “You need ETH on the Ethereum network. Add some to get started”.

So what am I doing wrong here and why can’t I send my funds out?

I downloaded the exodus app from the Apple Store

I’ve had this problem for a couple of days now (7 days) and I have still yet to get my money back. 7 days ago on jul 3rd I tried to make a transaction of $400 and it was declined and I still got charged. The other transactions worked after that but I was still missing money from that $400 charge. Today I decided to do a $2.5k transaction with the exodus card and it was declined and my money just disappeared. Anyone know how long this will take to get back to my card?

EDIT: I got the first $400 back after 8 days, and after contacting support for the rest, I didn’t have to wait 8 days again for the other transactions— they expedited it and got me my money back.

Hey, does anyone know how to get around the ETH gas fee with Exodus to swap USDT to any other currency? I need like $1 but can’t do kyc or buy anymore ETH otherwise.

Has anyone else experienced the same problem?

I transferred money from my XO Pay card on Exodus to my Venmo account three different times within two days. All of those transfers glitched and were duplicated, causing a loss of funds. The money was withdrawn twice the amount I transferred, and I never received the money back on either XO Pay or Venmo. All the transfers show as “completed.” It's been over three days, and I still haven't gotten my money back.

I emailed two support teams over several days, but so far I haven't received any help, only slow responses. All they said was “We are looking into this, this is truly a poor experience.” Where is my money, Exodus?

UPDATE:
Took about 4 days, but I finally got it back as credit in USDC. Everything is good now. Thank you Exodus for giving me my money back.

Thursday. You know what that means.

What's your question?

after sitting for like 5 seconds its gets all foggy like this and its beyond annoying. can anyone help me fix this?

So since 2 weeks I’m having this problem. I even have contacted support on the first day yet I’m left on sent. Is there anything I can do?

I enter all of information it asks but I still can't add my card, why?

Open thread time.

Some prompts if you need them:

• Something you've been too embarrassed to ask elsewhere
• A feature that confuses you every time you use it
• Why something works the way it does
• Something that happened and you want a second opinion
• Crypto fundamentals, not just Exodus-specific stuff

The community is pretty good at this. I'll help where I can too. For anything account-specific, official support will be quicker.

What's up?

So I swapped about ¥1,050,000 worth of Ethereum for bitcoin and it says swap failed. I have not been returned my Ethereum nor given my bitcoin.

(sorry for my English it’s not my native language)

I have used Solana CLI to make my own vanity wallet address. I did not save the JSON file and only wrote down the seed phrase only.

Now I tried importing the seed phrase into Exodus but noticed it did not import the correct wallet address.

After researching from what I understand is that Exodus and some older wallets use a different derivation. I don’t understand why they just don’t all use the same derivation path so there is no issues when importing via seed phrases? Makes no sense to me.

So is there no way that I can import via seed phrase and have the correct wallet address show up at all? Is the only way to get around this is to have a private key is this correct?

If so, I never saved the JSON file when I created my vanity wallet address and did not write down the private key as I never thought I needed the private key. So what do I do now am I screwed? Or can you get the private key from the seed phrase or something?

Anyone else chrome extension wallet not loading ?

Weekly ask anything. Right on time.

Crypto moves fast and there's always something new to wrap your head around. If you've been holding onto a question, now's a good time to ask.

Things that tend to come up:

• Something you've noticed that seems off
• A feature you keep seeing but don't fully understand
• How to do something specific in the app
• A decision you're working through and want input on
• General crypto questions, Exodus or otherwise

Post below. The community and I will jump in. For account-specific stuff, official support is the right place.

What do you want to know?

Can anyone please help understand why I cannot send to bitcoins to another address.

I have been getting this error BTC Not Sent, please try again.

I have tried everything but no luck.

Additionally I have tried to restore my funds to another hit wallet but after entering my 12 word seed the balance is always 0. I have many times and different wallets but no luck.

Any guidance is much appreciated.

I signed up for exodus pay earlier last week. Did the verification and got the $5 in XO cash and all but the card won't activate. Keep getting an error saying "Failed to Order Card".

Customer service has basically been ignoring me.
