## FAQ

### How long does it take to swap BCH to LDO on GhostSwap?

Most BCH to LDO swaps finish in 20–60 minutes. Your BCH deposit needs about 10–20 minutes to confirm on Bitcoin Cash; after that the LDO is sent to your wallet and Ethereum confirms it in about 2–5 minutes. Busy networks can add a few minutes.

### Do I need KYC or an account to exchange BCH to LDO?

No. GhostSwap has no accounts: you paste the Ethereum address that should receive the LDO, send BCH 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 Bitcoin Cash 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 Bitcoin Cash network fee for your deposit is paid in BCH 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 a 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 BCH 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 BCH payment on Blockchair (https://blockchair.com/bitcoin-cash) and your incoming LDO on Etherscan (https://etherscan.io).

### Is it safe to exchange BCH for LDO on GhostSwap?

GhostSwap is non-custodial: there is no account balance holding your coins. Your BCH 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 BCH to LDO swap work?

Bitcoin Cash lives on Bitcoin Cash and Lido DAO on Ethereum, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your BCH on Bitcoin Cash and pays native LDO on Ethereum, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees.

### What happens if my BCH to LDO exchange fails?

If a swap cannot be completed, the BCH is refunded to the Bitcoin Cash 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.
