## FAQ

### How long does it take to swap BTC to INJ on GhostSwap?

Most BTC to INJ swaps are paid out within 20–60 minutes: the BTC deposit needs 10–30 minutes (1–3 confirmations) to confirm on Bitcoin, then the INJ is sent to your wallet, and Injective confirms the payout in under a minute. Busy networks can add a few minutes.

### How much is 1 BTC in INJ?

1 BTC is worth about 11,034.90 INJ 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 INJ network fee. The rate floats with the market until your BTC deposit confirms, so the exchange box shows the exact amount before you send.

### Do I need KYC or an account to exchange BTC to INJ?

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

### What are the fees for converting Bitcoin to Injective Protocol?

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

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

To receive Injective Protocol from your swap, we recommend using Keplr or Trust Wallet. Make sure your wallet supports the Injective network before starting the exchange. Double-check your INJ address before confirming — cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### What format is the INJ address?

Use an Injective address: it starts with inj1. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand.

### Do I need a memo to receive INJ?

Only if the INJ goes to an exchange or custodial account that gave you a memo; enter it in the field shown in the exchange box. A personal INJ wallet does not need one.

### Can I track my BTC to INJ 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 BTC payment on mempool.space (https://mempool.space) and your incoming INJ on Mintscan (https://www.mintscan.io/injective).

### Is it safe to exchange BTC for INJ on GhostSwap?

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

### How does a cross-chain BTC to INJ swap work?

Bitcoin lives on Bitcoin and Injective Protocol on Injective, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your BTC on Bitcoin and pays native INJ on Injective, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees.

### What happens if my BTC to INJ exchange fails?

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