DOT

What is Polkadot?

Polkadot (DOT) is a multi-chain protocol that connects different blockchains into a unified network, enabling them to communicate and share data securely. Founded by Ethereum co-founder Gavin Wood, Polkadot uses a unique relay chain architecture with specialized parachains that can be optimized for different use cases. DOT tokens are used for governance, staking, and bonding parachains to the network. Polkadot's vision of an interoperable blockchain ecosystem addresses one of crypto's biggest challenges — fragmented liquidity and isolated chains. Convert DOT on GhostSwap to swap between Polkadot and hundreds of other cryptocurrencies without KYC.

ADA

What is Cardano?

Cardano (ADA) is a third-generation blockchain platform built on peer-reviewed research and formal verification methods. Developed by Ethereum co-founder Charles Hoskinson, Cardano takes a methodical, academic approach to solving blockchain scalability, interoperability, and sustainability. ADA is used for staking, governance voting, and paying transaction fees on the network. Cardano's Ouroboros proof-of-stake consensus protocol is one of the most energy-efficient in the industry. The platform supports smart contracts through Plutus and continues to expand its DeFi and real-world application ecosystem. Exchange ADA on GhostSwap for over 1,500 crypto pairs, no KYC required.

Why Swap DOT for ADA?

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about exchanging DOT to ADA on GhostSwap.

How long does it take to swap DOT to ADA on GhostSwap?
When you exchange Polkadot to Cardano on GhostSwap, the process typically takes 12–60 seconds for your DOT to confirm on the Polkadot network. Once confirmed, your Cardano is sent to your wallet and arrives within 1–5 minutes. Total swap time is usually under 30 minutes, though network congestion can occasionally cause delays.
Do I need KYC or an account to exchange DOT to ADA?
No. GhostSwap is a non-custodial, no-KYC exchange. You can convert Polkadot to Cardano without creating an account, uploading ID documents, or providing any personal information. Just enter your Cardano wallet address, send your DOT, and receive your ADA — that's it.
What are the fees for converting Polkadot to Cardano?
GhostSwap charges a small service fee that's already included in the exchange rate you see — there are no hidden fees. On top of that, Polkadot fees are low, typically less than $0.10. The rate shown in the swap preview is the exact amount of ADA you'll receive.
What wallet should I use to receive ADA?
To receive Cardano from your swap, we recommend using Yoroi, Eternl, or Daedalus wallet. Make sure your wallet supports the Cardano network before starting the exchange. Double-check your ADA address before confirming — cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.
Can I track my DOT to ADA 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 DOT payment on Subscan (https://polkadot.subscan.io) and your incoming ADA on CardanoScan (https://cardanoscan.io).
Is it safe to exchange DOT for ADA on GhostSwap?
Yes. GhostSwap is a non-custodial exchange, which means we never hold your funds or private keys. Your Polkadot is converted and sent directly to your Cardano wallet address. We don't store personal data, and all swaps are processed through secure, encrypted connections.
How does a cross-chain DOT to ADA swap work?
Polkadot runs on the Polkadot network while Cardano runs on the Cardano network — they can't be sent directly to each other. GhostSwap handles the cross-chain conversion for you: you send DOT to our temporary deposit address, we convert it, and send the equivalent ADA to your wallet. No bridge protocols or technical knowledge required.
What happens if my DOT to ADA exchange fails?
In the rare case of a failed exchange, GhostSwap will automatically attempt to refund your DOT to the refund address you provided. If you didn't provide a refund address, or if you need assistance, our support team is available to help resolve the issue. Most problems are caused by sending the wrong amount or using an incompatible wallet address.
