## FAQ

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

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

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

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

### What are the fees for converting Bitcoin Cash to Tezos?

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

To receive Tezos from your swap, we recommend using Temple or Kukai. Make sure your wallet supports the Tezos network before starting the exchange. Double-check your XTZ address before confirming — cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### What format is the XTZ address?

Use a Tezos address: it starts with tz1, tz2 or tz3. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand.

### Can I track my BCH to XTZ 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 XTZ on TzKT (https://tzkt.io).

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

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

### How does a cross-chain BCH to XTZ swap work?

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

### What happens if my BCH to XTZ 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.
