Most AAVE to NEAR swaps are paid out within 10–25 minutes: the AAVE deposit needs about 2–5 minutes to confirm on Ethereum, then the NEAR is sent to your wallet, and NEAR confirms the payout in a few seconds. Busy networks can add a few minutes. ### How much is 1 AAVE in NEAR? 1 AAVE is worth about 29.1049 NEAR at the market rate, before fees (market prices, 12 Oct 2026). GhostSwap's quote in the exchange box already includes the service fee and the NEAR network fee. The rate floats with the market until your AAVE deposit confirms, so the exchange box shows the exact amount before you send. ### Do I need KYC or an account to exchange AAVE to NEAR? No. GhostSwap has no accounts: you paste the NEAR address that should receive the NEAR, send AAVE from your own wallet, and the NEAR goes straight to that address. No email, phone number or ID upload. ### What are the fees for converting Aave to NEAR Protocol? The GhostSwap fee is already included in the rate in the exchange box, so the NEAR amount you see is what you receive. On top of that, your wallet needs a little ETH to pay the Ethereum network fee for sending AAVE. ### What wallet should I use to receive NEAR? To receive NEAR Protocol from your swap, we recommend using Meteor, HOT Wallet or MyNearWallet. Make sure your wallet supports the NEAR network before starting the exchange. Double-check your NEAR address before confirming, cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed. ### What format is the NEAR address? Use a NEAR address: it is a named account such as alice.near or 64 hexadecimal characters. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand. ### Can I track my AAVE to NEAR swap? Yes. After initiating your swap, GhostSwap provides a transaction status page where you can monitor progress in real-time. You can also track your AAVE payment on Etherscan (https://etherscan.io) and your incoming NEAR on NearBlocks (https://nearblocks.io). ### Is it safe to exchange AAVE for NEAR on GhostSwap? GhostSwap is non-custodial: there is no account balance holding your coins. Your AAVE deposit is converted and the NEAR is sent straight to the NEAR address you enter, so check that address twice, NEAR transfers cannot be reversed. ### How does a cross-chain AAVE to NEAR swap work? Aave lives on Ethereum and NEAR Protocol on NEAR, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your AAVE on Ethereum and pays native NEAR on NEAR, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees. ### What happens if my AAVE to NEAR exchange fails? If a swap cannot be completed, the AAVE is refunded to the Ethereum address you entered as the sender address. If something looks stuck, contact support with your swap ID from the status page. Most problems come from sending a different amount than shown or using an address on the wrong network. ## Related - [Reverse: NEAR to AAVE](https://ghostswap.io/exchange/nearmainnet-aave/) ([Markdown](https://ghostswap.io/exchange/nearmainnet-aave.md)) - [All GhostSwap pairs](https://ghostswap.io/exchange/) - [How to exchange](https://ghostswap.io/how-to-exchange/) - [Site guide for AI assistants](https://ghostswap.io/llms.txt)
