## FAQ

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

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

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

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

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

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

To receive Starknet from your swap, we recommend using Ready (Argent) or Braavos. Make sure your wallet supports the Starknet network before starting the exchange. Double-check your STRK address before confirming — cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### What format is the STRK address?

Use a Starknet address: it starts with 0x followed by up to 64 hexadecimal characters. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand.

### Can I track my BTC to STRK 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 STRK on Voyager (https://voyager.online).

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

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

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

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

### What happens if my BTC to STRK 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.
