## FAQ

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

Most ADA to THETA 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 THETA is sent to your wallet, and Theta Network confirms the payout in a few minutes. Busy networks can add a few minutes.

### How much is 1 ADA in THETA?

1 ADA is worth about 1.1167 THETA at the market rate, before fees (market prices, 11 Oct 2026). GhostSwap's quote in the exchange box already includes the service fee and the THETA 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 THETA?

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

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

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

To receive THETA from your swap, we recommend using Theta Wallet. Make sure your wallet supports the Theta Network network before starting the exchange. Double-check your THETA address before confirming, cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### What format is the THETA address?

Use a Theta Network 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 THETA 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 THETA on Theta Explorer (https://explorer.thetatoken.org).

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

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

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

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

### What happens if my ADA to THETA 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.
