That's a very common move. The most direct path is to use a service that specifically supports selling USDT for fiat. You want a platform that allows you to sell your USDT directly and initiate a bank transfer (like an ACH or wire) to your linked account. The process should be straightforward: you select the amount of USDT, get a quoted USD rate with fees clearly shown, confirm the transaction, and the platform handles the conversion and sends the cash. It's much cleaner than swapping USDT for another coin first. For a clear, step-by-step breakdown of this exact process, the guide on Paybis is quite helpful.
