ALGO

What is Algorand?

Algorand (ALGO) is a scalable blockchain platform designed for speed, security, and true decentralization. Founded by MIT professor and Turing Award winner Silvio Micali, Algorand uses a pure proof-of-stake consensus mechanism that achieves instant finality — meaning transactions are confirmed and irreversible in seconds. ALGO is used for transaction fees, staking, and governance. The platform is particularly popular for real-world asset tokenization, central bank digital currencies (CBDCs), and carbon credit markets.

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.

Confirmation times

ALGO to ADA: questions and answers

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

How long does it take to swap ALGO to ADA on GhostSwap?
Most ALGO to ADA swaps are paid out within 5–15 minutes: the ALGO deposit needs under a minute to confirm on Algorand, then the ADA is sent to your wallet, and Cardano confirms the payout in a few minutes (blocks about every 20 seconds). Busy networks can add a few minutes.
How much is 1 ALGO in ADA?
1 ALGO is worth about 0.498380 ADA at the market rate, before fees (market prices, 8 Oct 2026). GhostSwap's quote in the exchange box already includes the service fee and the ADA network fee. The rate floats with the market until your ALGO deposit confirms, so the exchange box shows the exact amount before you send.
Do I need KYC or an account to exchange ALGO to ADA?
No. GhostSwap has no accounts: you paste the Cardano address that should receive the ADA, send ALGO from your own wallet, and the ADA goes straight to that address. No email, phone number or ID upload.
What are the fees for converting Algorand to Cardano?
The GhostSwap fee is already included in the rate in the exchange box, so the ADA amount you see is what you receive. On top of that, the Algorand network fee for your deposit is paid in ALGO by your wallet.
What wallet should I use to receive ADA?
To receive Cardano from your swap, we recommend using Eternl, Lace or VESPR. Make sure your wallet supports the Cardano network before starting the exchange. Double-check your ADA address before confirming, cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.
What format is the ADA address?
Use a Cardano address: it starts with addr1. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand.
Can I track my ALGO to ADA 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 ALGO payment on Allo (https://allo.info) and your incoming ADA on Cardanoscan (https://cardanoscan.io).
Is it safe to exchange ALGO for ADA on GhostSwap?
GhostSwap is non-custodial: there is no account balance holding your coins. Your ALGO deposit is converted and the ADA is sent straight to the Cardano address you enter, so check that address twice, Cardano transfers cannot be reversed.
How does a cross-chain ALGO to ADA swap work?
Algorand lives on Algorand and Cardano on Cardano, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your ALGO on Algorand and pays native ADA on Cardano, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees.
What happens if my ALGO to ADA exchange fails?
If a swap cannot be completed, the ALGO is refunded to the Algorand 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.
