## FAQ

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

Most ADA to HYPE 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 HYPE is sent to your wallet and HyperEVM (Hyperliquid) confirms it in under a minute. Busy networks can add a few minutes.

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

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

### What are the fees for converting Cardano to Hyperliquid?

The GhostSwap fee is already included in the rate in the exchange box, so the HYPE 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 HYPE?

To receive Hyperliquid from your swap, we recommend using Rabby or MetaMask. Make sure your wallet supports the HyperEVM (Hyperliquid) network before starting the exchange. Double-check your HYPE address before confirming — cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### What format is the HYPE address?

Use a HyperEVM (Hyperliquid) address: it starts with 0x followed by 40 hexadecimal characters. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand.

### Can I track my ADA to HYPE 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 HYPE on HyperEVMScan (https://hyperevmscan.io).

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

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

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

Cardano lives on Cardano and Hyperliquid on HyperEVM (Hyperliquid), two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your ADA on Cardano and pays native HYPE on HyperEVM (Hyperliquid), so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees.

### What happens if my ADA to HYPE 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.
