OUT_OF_ENERGY: why your USDT transfer fails
The transaction reached a block, ran out of energy and reverted. Your USDT is untouched. The burned TRX is not.
Retrying changes nothing and burns TRX again. What you need is energy on the sending address: 65,000 if the recipient holds USDT, 131,000 if not.
Energy on the sending address in seconds. The bot quotes the price before you pay.
Four causes
- No energy and little TRX. Burning costs about — TRX per transfer. Hold less and the transaction dies.
- Less energy than this transfer needs. You took 65,000 and the recipient has never held USDT: creating a balance record costs roughly double.
- Fee limit set too low. It is a ceiling on TRX spend, not an amount. Set below the real cost, it cuts execution off yourself.
- Energy on the wrong address. The sender pays: delegation has to land on the wallet you send USDT from.
The fix, in four moves
- Open your address on Tronscan and read the energy balance.
- Check the recipient: holds USDT — 65,000; does not — 131,000.
- Rent that amount for an hour.
- Raise the fee limit to 30–100 TRX and send again.
In TronLink the fee limit hides in the advanced send settings. Raising it is safe: it is a ceiling, not a charge.
Why not just top up TRX?
That works, and it costs — TRX instead of — TRX. Burning is the network’s emergency rate, not the market price of the resource.
Errors that look the same
OUT_OF_BANDWIDTH is the other resource and costs a
fraction of a TRX.
REVERT with no mention of energy means the contract refused; renting will not help.

Frequently asked
Do I get the burned TRX back?
No. The network executed the code up to the point where the resource ran out, and that work is paid for.
I rented energy and still get the error. Why?
Three usual reasons: the energy went to the wrong address, the amount does not cover an empty wallet, or the fee limit is too low.
Can this happen on a plain TRX transfer?
No. Sending TRX calls no contract and needs no energy.
Skip the reading, take the energy
Pick an amount, give an address, pay in TRX or USDT. Then send your transfer.
