## FAQ

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

Most BTC to RLUSD swaps are paid out within 20–60 minutes: the BTC deposit needs 10–30 minutes (1–3 confirmations) to confirm on Bitcoin, then the RLUSD is sent to your wallet, and Ethereum confirms the payout in about 2–5 minutes. Busy networks can add a few minutes.

### How much is 1 BTC in RLUSD?

1 BTC is worth about 84,770.44 RLUSD at the market rate, before fees (market prices, 2 Oct 2026). GhostSwap's quote in the exchange box already includes the service fee and the RLUSD 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 RLUSD?

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

### What are the fees for converting Bitcoin to Ripple USD?

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

To receive Ripple USD 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 RLUSD address before confirming — cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### What format is the RLUSD address?

Use an 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 RLUSD to an address on another network can lose the coins.

### Can I track my BTC to RLUSD 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 RLUSD on Etherscan (https://etherscan.io).

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

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

### Why swap BTC to RLUSD?

Converting Bitcoin to Ripple USD moves the value into a dollar-pegged stablecoin in your own wallet, without using a centralized exchange or going through KYC.

### What happens if my BTC to RLUSD 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.
