on Bestchange, top of the table on the left, chose the from/to (give/get) currencies, отдаете → получаете  
[https://www.bestchange.ru/](https://www.bestchange.ru/)  
in your case there are even (by now) couple exchanges doing RUB-\>SEPA €:

2. I Buy USDT on Kraken, then I transfer to my Telegram Wallet?

3. What is TON or TRC20 transfer Address from Telegram Wallet.

4.Which Network do I select when withdrawing from Kraken?Arboretum, Optimism, Polygon, Solana Tron?

Very Confusing

Thanks for any help

@Adam Morning Adam, yes your first two steps fine, then use the Tron network to send to your Telegram Wallet. Then inside Telegram Wallet sell the USDT on the P2P market using the Russian Bank Account you have access to.

Morning Tim, Thank you very much, I create a network from Telegram Wallet using TON or TRC 20( Is this Tron)?

Last Question do I need to verify my Telegram Wallet? If so is this done by purchasing Crypto using Neo or I don’t need to bother if Transfering from Kraken?

Thanks Again

Yes TRC20 is Tron. You need to verify your Telegram wallet as you will be using the P2P market. It normally takes a couple of days. I know its a palava to get it set all up but it will save you so much if you are transferring regularly. Rates using this method are close to real market price unlike Profee which is minimum 15% worse

@phoebe Hi Tim, thanks again! My USDT is now in my Telegram Wallet, do I need to make a deposit in Wallet to Verify my Account or is this done while using the P2P platform on my first trade?I apologise for so many questions and thank you for patience!

I suggest going ahead and try to use the P2P market, I would suggest you may already be verified. Its a safe platform and you only send the P2P seller the USDT once he deposits the RUB in your chosen Russian account. Its safer than any money transfer site. The Telegram Wallet only release the funds to the seller once you confirm you have received the RUB in your Russian Account.

@phoebe Afternoon Tim, I’m not already registered but when I attempt to register the UK is not listed? Maybe I need to make a deposit on Telegram using my bank card?

I’m really confused, I have a verified Telegram Wallet which was verified using a UK passport and have an extended status which allows up to 100,000 GBP. However looking at the now huge list of restricted countries the UK appears on it as well as the vast majority of Europe.

You don’t need to withdraw from your Telegram channel if you are just sending money, just sell on the P2P market

You can’t exchange on the P2P unless account is verified!You can send to your Telegram contacts without verification! If your verification is rejected you can’t do anything only withdraw your money!

@pattruong9872  
Hello,  
I found this site with a search. Looks like the right one. I have a Bybit number to my friend’s bank in the Ukraine, smack dab in the middle of the Red Zone if you were to look at a map. Yes, they have a bank there and it works.  
I am in Michigan and wish to send my friend and her mother some cash for food or whatever (maybe ice cream? LOL) I do not know how to use crypto at all. I know enough to get confused early on. We are both members of Telegram Premium.  
Other than a very long number I have from them, what else do I need to send my friends some cash for things?  
Please be patient, as I said, I’m unfamiliar with this and they are pretty much as unfamiliar with the process.

I hope someone here can help me out given the limited info I have said. If you need anything further from me, PLEASE let me know!  
Michael in Michigan

Hi Michael,  
Have you ever hear about the Robinhood app? Super easy to use. Create an account, link your bank cards, and then buy crypto currencies on there. The most common crypto that everyone talking about in the US is Bitcoin. You can buy it using the Robinhood app. Robinhood is free and come with crypto wallet  
“The very long number” you mentioned, if it was a combination of numbers and letters, it is called wallet address. Think about it like your bank account number. You will need to send the money to your friend.  
Telegram wallet is not working in the US, so unfortunately, you will have to buy and send Bitcoin to your friend and they should exchange it to USDt for safekeeping since the value is not going up and down like Bitcoin  
For now, you just need to learn how to use the Robinhood app and be able to buy Bitcoin first using the Robinhood app. You can send me a message when you are able to do so and I will help you navigate how to send it
