## Algorand to Ether: landing on Ethereum mainnet

ALGO to ETH is for Algorand holders who need Ether on Ethereum mainnet, for example to pay gas in a new wallet or to use Ethereum apps. Ethereum cannot read Algorand accounts or assets, so ALGO cannot simply be sent across. GhostSwap sells the ALGO and pays native ETH to the 0x address you enter, without an account.

The Algorand leg is the quick one: the network does not fork, so the deposit is final within seconds and credited within about a minute. Ethereum is the slower half, and the ETH payout usually confirms within 2 to 5 minutes, depending on traffic. Most ALGO to ETH swaps finish in 5 to 15 minutes.

### Tips

- Paste the full Ethereum mainnet address (0x plus 40 hexadecimal characters) from MetaMask, Rabby or a Ledger, not an ENS name such as name.eth.
- Send ALGO from your own Pera or Defly account and enter its 58-character address as the refund address. A .algo name from NFDomains is not an address, so paste the address itself.
- Want ETH on Arbitrum or Base, where gas usually costs less? Choose that network's ETH as the receive coin; this pair pays on Ethereum mainnet only.

### Do I need to register to swap ALGO for ETH?

No. There is no account, email or ID upload for a standard swap. Enter your Ethereum address, review the floating rate and send the ALGO from your wallet.

### Can the ETH go to my Algorand wallet?

No. An Algorand address, such as the one in Pera, cannot receive native ETH. Use an address from a wallet that supports Ethereum mainnet.

## FAQ

### How long does it take to swap ALGO to ETH on GhostSwap?

Most ALGO to ETH swaps are paid out within 5–15 minutes: the ALGO deposit needs under a minute to confirm on Algorand, then the ETH is sent to your wallet, and Ethereum confirms the payout in about 2–5 minutes.

### How much is 1 ALGO in ETH?

1 ALGO is worth about 0.0000478715 ETH at the market rate, before fees (market prices, 3 Oct 2026). GhostSwap's quote in the exchange box already includes the service fee and the ETH network fee. The minimum for this pair is about 240 ALGO. The Algorand network fee for sending the ALGO is paid separately, in ALGO. The rate floats with the market until your ALGO deposit confirms.

### Can I send ALGO straight to my ETH address?

No. ALGO moves on Algorand and ETH on Ethereum, so ALGO can only be sent to an Algorand address. To swap, send the ALGO to the one-time deposit address GhostSwap shows, and the ETH is paid to the Ethereum address you enter, with no bridge or wrapped token.

### Do I need KYC or an account to exchange ALGO to ETH?

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

### What wallet and address do I need to receive ETH?

Use an Ethereum address from a wallet you control, such as MetaMask, Rabby or a Ledger. The address starts with 0x followed by 40 hexadecimal characters. GhostSwap never holds your funds: the ETH is sent straight to the address you enter.

### What happens if my ALGO to ETH exchange fails?

If a swap cannot be completed, the ALGO is refunded to the Algorand address you entered as the sender address.
