What is Degen?

What is Algorand?

Algorand (ALGO) is a scalable blockchain platform designed for speed, security, and true decentralization. Founded by MIT professor and Turing Award winner Silvio Micali, Algorand uses a pure proof-of-stake consensus mechanism that achieves instant finality — meaning transactions are confirmed and irreversible in seconds. ALGO is used for transaction fees, staking, and governance. The platform is particularly popular for real-world asset tokenization, central bank digital currencies (CBDCs), and carbon credit markets.

Degen lives on Base and Algorand on Algorand, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your DEGEN on Base and pays native ALGO on Algorand, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees.

If a swap cannot be completed, the DEGEN is refunded to the Base 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.
