ADA

What is Cardano?

Cardano (ADA) is a third-generation blockchain platform built on peer-reviewed research and formal verification methods. Developed by Ethereum co-founder Charles Hoskinson, Cardano takes a methodical, academic approach to solving blockchain scalability, interoperability, and sustainability. ADA is used for staking, governance voting, and paying transaction fees on the network. Cardano's Ouroboros proof-of-stake consensus protocol is one of the most energy-efficient in the industry. The platform supports smart contracts through Plutus and continues to expand its DeFi and real-world application ecosystem.

ADA to LDO: questions and answers

Everything you need to know about exchanging ADA to LDO on GhostSwap.

How long does it take to swap ADA to LDO on GhostSwap?
Most ADA to LDO swaps are paid out within 10–25 minutes: the ADA deposit needs a few minutes (blocks about every 20 seconds) to confirm on Cardano, then the LDO is sent to your wallet, and Ethereum confirms the payout in about 2–5 minutes. Busy networks can add a few minutes.
How much is 1 ADA in LDO?
1 ADA is worth about 0.554947 LDO at the market rate, before fees (market prices, 21 Oct 2026). GhostSwap's quote in the exchange box already includes the service fee and the LDO network fee. The rate floats with the market until your ADA deposit confirms, so the exchange box shows the exact amount before you send.
Do I need KYC or an account to exchange ADA to LDO?
No. GhostSwap has no accounts: you paste the Ethereum address that should receive the LDO, send ADA from your own wallet, and the LDO goes straight to that address. No email, phone number or ID upload.
What are the fees for converting Cardano to Lido DAO?
The GhostSwap fee is already included in the rate in the exchange box, so the LDO 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 LDO?
To receive Lido DAO 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 LDO address before confirming, cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.
What format is the LDO address?
Use an 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 LDO to an address on another network can lose the coins.
Can I track my ADA to LDO 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 LDO on Etherscan (https://etherscan.io).
Is it safe to exchange ADA for LDO on GhostSwap?
GhostSwap is non-custodial: there is no account balance holding your coins. Your ADA deposit is converted and the LDO 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 LDO swap work?
Cardano lives on Cardano and Lido DAO on Ethereum, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your ADA on Cardano and pays native LDO on Ethereum, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees.
What happens if my ADA to LDO 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.
