## FAQ

### How long does it take to swap ADA to GRT on GhostSwap?

Most ADA to GRT swaps finish in 10–25 minutes. Your ADA deposit needs a few minutes (blocks about every 20 seconds) to confirm on Cardano; after that the GRT is sent to your wallet and Ethereum confirms it in about 2–5 minutes. Busy networks can add a few minutes.

### Do I need KYC or an account to exchange ADA to GRT?

No. GhostSwap has no accounts: you paste the Ethereum address that should receive the GRT, send ADA from your own wallet, and the GRT goes straight to that address. No email, phone number or ID upload.

### What are the fees for converting Cardano to The Graph?

The GhostSwap fee is already included in the rate in the exchange box, so the GRT amount you see is what you receive. On top of that, the Cardano network fee for your deposit is paid in ADA by your wallet.

### What wallet should I use to receive GRT?

To receive The Graph from your swap, we recommend using MetaMask, Rabby or a Ledger. Make sure your wallet supports the Ethereum network before starting the exchange. Double-check your GRT address before confirming — cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### What format is the GRT address?

Use a Ethereum address: it starts with 0x followed by 40 hexadecimal characters. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand. Sending GRT to an address on another network can lose the coins.

### Can I track my ADA to GRT 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 ADA payment on CardanoScan (https://cardanoscan.io) and your incoming GRT on Etherscan (https://etherscan.io).

### Is it safe to exchange ADA for GRT on GhostSwap?

GhostSwap is non-custodial: there is no account balance holding your coins. Your ADA deposit is converted and the GRT is sent straight to the Ethereum address you enter, so check that address twice — Ethereum transfers cannot be reversed.

### How does a cross-chain ADA to GRT swap work?

Cardano lives on Cardano and The Graph on Ethereum, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your ADA on Cardano and pays native GRT on Ethereum, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees.

### What happens if my ADA to GRT exchange fails?

If a swap cannot be completed, the ADA is refunded to the Cardano 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.
