## FAQ

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

Most BTC to KAIA swaps finish in 20–60 minutes. Your BTC deposit needs 10–30 minutes (1–3 confirmations) to confirm on Bitcoin; after that the KAIA is sent to your wallet and Kaia confirms it in a few seconds. Busy networks can add a few minutes.

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

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

### What are the fees for converting Bitcoin to Kaia?

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

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

### What format is the KAIA address?

Use a Kaia address: it starts with 0x followed by 40 hexadecimal characters. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand.

### Can I track my BTC to KAIA 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 KAIA on KaiaScan (https://kaiascan.io).

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

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

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

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

### What happens if my BTC to KAIA 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.
