Payment currency: USDC
Your perps margin is held as USDC in your own Hyperliquid (EVM) account. PnL is realized in USDC, and that's what you withdraw. You never hand custody to Ritdex — funds sit in an account only your keys control.
Funding your account
| Method | How it works |
|---|---|
| Direct USDC deposit | Send USDC to your trading address on the supported network. |
| Cross-chain deposit | Bridge USDC (or another asset) from another chain; it's routed to your trading balance. |
| Swap in | Already hold other tokens? Swap them to USDC first, then trade. |
Only send the supported network's USDC to your trading address. Sending an unsupported asset or the wrong network's token can make funds hard to recover — always confirm the network shown in the deposit screen.
Enabling trading (one-time)
The first time you trade, you approve the Ritdex builder and create a trade-only agent with a single signature. This does not move funds — it only authorizes order placement. The agent can trade but can never withdraw your balance (see Wallet & Security).
Withdrawing
- Open the withdraw screen and enter the USDC amount.
- Confirm the destination address and network.
- Sign — the withdrawal settles back to your wallet on-chain.
Ritdex charges nothing on deposits or withdrawals — you only ever pay the blockchain's own gas. See the full, transparent charge list on the Fees page.
Common questions
- Which network for USDC? Use the network shown in the deposit screen; that's where your trading balance settles.
- Why hasn't my deposit shown up? Cross-chain routes take a few minutes; a direct deposit appears after network confirmations.
- Can Ritdex touch my funds? No. Deposits, trading and withdrawals are all non-custodial — your keys, your USDC.
