## FAQ

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

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

### How much is 1 BTC in VET?

1 BTC is worth about 10,462,910.41 VET at the market rate, before fees (market prices, 12 Oct 2026). GhostSwap's quote in the exchange box already includes the service fee and the VET 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 VET?

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

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

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

To receive VeChain from your swap, we recommend using VeWorld. Make sure your wallet supports the VeChainThor network before starting the exchange. Double-check your VET address before confirming, cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### What format is the VET address?

Use a VeChainThor 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 VET 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 VET on VeChain Explorer (https://explore.vechain.org).

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

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

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

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

### What happens if my BTC to VET 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.
