## Error Cause

The problems mainly occur in the situation of insufficient authorization of USDT, so it is best to use the method of full authorization in the use of authorization.

The USDT approval operation mandates that the initial authorization amount should be set to 0. Any non-zero authorization that continues will result in an error being reported by the contract.

## Solutions

**(1) Revoke your USDT Approve in HopeSwap (Recommended)**

1. Enter the [USDT Write Contract](https://etherscan.io/address/0xdac17f958d2ee523a2206206994597c13d831ec7#writeContract).
2. Connect your Wallet.<br>

4. "*spender" fill in HopeSwap Router address:* `0x219Bd2d1449F3813c01204EE455D11B41D5051e9`\
   "\_value" fill in 0<br>

**(3) Use a new wallet address in HopeSwap.**

## How to avoid this problem

You are suggested to use the "***Default Value***" when setting the approval amount for USDT to avoid future approval failures.
