The pattern
Across the 9 networks Bitget offers for both coins, USDC comes out cheaper on 4 of them and USDT on 4: Optimism and AVAXC-Chain and Polygon and ArbitrumOne. That’s not a rule that will always hold — fees are set per network, not per stablecoin brand — but right now, if you’re only choosing between the two tokens and don’t care which one you hold, neither token has a clear edge on this exchange, so check the specific network you plan to use.
Why two “identical” tokens have different fees
USDT and USDC aren’t actually identical under the hood — they’re separate token contracts, sometimes with different gas costs to move, and Bitget (or the network itself) prices withdrawals independently for each. A cheaper USDC fee on a given chain doesn’t mean anything is wrong with USDT there; it just means the two tokens aren’t priced in lockstep.
If you’re not already committed to one stablecoin, this is exactly the kind of number worth checking before you decide which one to hold.
