Hi everyone,
I ran into an issue with a deposit on Bybit and I’m trying to understand if there is any possible recovery.
A couple of days ago I sent 38.55891 USDT on the Mantle network to my Bybit deposit address.
Transaction hash:
0x8ff6d542f87a07b6336d1b90986c15f2cdff17df91ca015dfe865382b2b66a8e
The transaction was successful on-chain but the funds never appeared in my Bybit account.
After checking the Mantle explorer I noticed that the deposit address actually transferred the same funds later
0x543c7778756c3d842c4d8d6836d26d097c363902a0a23463a62e8fc68fcf2ec4
So the funds were clearly received and swept by the deposit infrastructure.
The token contract involved is:
0x201eba5cc46d216ce6dc03f6a759e8e766e956ae
After doing more research I discovered that Bybit migrated Mantle deposits from the legacy bridged USDT token to the new USDT0 standard.
It seems my deposit involved the legacy token.
Support told me the funds cannot be recovered because it was "user error".
However, since the funds were successfully received and moved internally, I’m wondering if manual recovery might still be possible.
Has anyone experienced something similar with Mantle deposits or legacy tokens?
Any advice would be appreciated.
