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.

DEGEN

What is Degen?

Degen (DEGEN) is a term commonly used in the crypto community to refer to high-risk, high-reward investments. A token named DEGEN may be associated with projects that embrace this culture. Due to the speculative nature, users should exercise caution and conduct thorough research.

DOT to DEGEN: questions and answers

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

How long does it take to swap DOT to DEGEN on GhostSwap?
Most DOT to DEGEN swaps are paid out within 5–15 minutes: the DOT deposit needs under a minute to confirm on Polkadot, then the DEGEN is sent to your wallet, and Base confirms the payout in about a minute. Busy networks can add a few minutes.
Do I need KYC or an account to exchange DOT to DEGEN?
No. GhostSwap has no accounts: you paste the Base address that should receive the DEGEN, send DOT from your own wallet, and the DEGEN goes straight to that address. No email, phone number or ID upload.
What are the fees for converting Polkadot to Degen?
The GhostSwap fee is already included in the rate in the exchange box, so the DEGEN amount you see is what you receive. On top of that, the Polkadot network fee for your deposit is paid in DOT by your wallet.
What wallet should I use to receive DEGEN?
To receive Degen from your swap, we recommend using Coinbase Wallet, MetaMask or Rabby. Make sure your wallet supports the Base (Ethereum layer 2) network before starting the exchange. Double-check your DEGEN address before confirming, cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.
What format is the DEGEN address?
Use a Base address: it starts with 0x followed by 40 hexadecimal characters. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand. Sending DEGEN to an address on another network can lose the coins.
Can I track my DOT to DEGEN 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 DEGEN on BaseScan (https://basescan.org).
Is it safe to exchange DOT for DEGEN on GhostSwap?
GhostSwap is non-custodial: there is no account balance holding your coins. Your DOT deposit is converted and the DEGEN is sent straight to the Base address you enter, so check that address twice, Base transfers cannot be reversed.
How does a cross-chain DOT to DEGEN swap work?
Polkadot lives on Polkadot and Degen on Base, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your DOT on Polkadot and pays native DEGEN on Base, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees.
What happens if my DOT to DEGEN exchange fails?
If a swap cannot be completed, the DOT is refunded to the Polkadot 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.
