## FAQ

### How long does it take to swap BNB to TAO on GhostSwap?

Most BNB to TAO swaps finish in 5–15 minutes. Your BNB deposit needs under a minute to confirm on BNB Smart Chain; after that the TAO is sent to your wallet and Bittensor confirms it in a few minutes. Busy networks can add a few minutes.

### Do I need KYC or an account to exchange BNB to TAO?

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

### What are the fees for converting BNB to Bittensor?

The GhostSwap fee is already included in the rate in the exchange box, so the TAO amount you see is what you receive. On top of that, the BNB Smart Chain network fee for your deposit is paid in BNB by your wallet.

### What wallet should I use to receive TAO?

To receive Bittensor from your swap, we recommend using Talisman, Nova Wallet, or the Bittensor wallet CLI. Make sure your wallet supports the Bittensor network before starting the exchange. Double-check your TAO address before confirming — cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### What format is the TAO address?

Use a Bittensor address: it starts with 5 (SS58 format). Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand.

### Can I track my BNB to TAO 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 BNB payment on BscScan (https://bscscan.com) and your incoming TAO on Taostats (https://taostats.io).

### Is it safe to exchange BNB for TAO on GhostSwap?

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

### How does a cross-chain BNB to TAO swap work?

BNB lives on BNB Smart Chain and Bittensor on Bittensor, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your BNB on BNB Smart Chain and pays native TAO on Bittensor, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees.

### What happens if my BNB to TAO exchange fails?

If a swap cannot be completed, the BNB is refunded to the BNB Smart Chain 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.
