metaratesEscrow
A mechanism where the exchange temporarily freezes the seller's coins and releases them to the buyer only after payment is confirmed.
In practice
Escrow is what protects the buyer from losing money: until the seller confirms receipt, the USDT stay frozen. Do not release coins until the money is credited to your account.
