## FAQ

### How long does it take to swap DOT to GRT on GhostSwap?

Most DOT to GRT swaps are paid out within 5–15 minutes: the DOT deposit needs under a minute to confirm on Polkadot, then the GRT is sent to your wallet, and Ethereum confirms the payout in about 2–5 minutes. Busy networks can add a few minutes.

### How much is 1 DOT in GRT?

1 DOT is worth about 41.5823 GRT at the market rate, before fees (market prices, 2 Oct 2026). GhostSwap's quote in the exchange box already includes the service fee and the GRT network fee. The rate floats with the market until your DOT deposit confirms, so the exchange box shows the exact amount before you send.

### Do I need KYC or an account to exchange DOT to GRT?

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

### What are the fees for converting Polkadot to The Graph?

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

To receive The Graph from your swap, we recommend using MetaMask, Rabby or a Ledger. Make sure your wallet supports the Ethereum network before starting the exchange. Double-check your GRT address before confirming — cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### What format is the GRT address?

Use an Ethereum address: it starts with 0x followed by 40 hexadecimal characters. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand. Sending GRT to an address on another network can lose the coins.

### Can I track my DOT to GRT 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 GRT on Etherscan (https://etherscan.io).

### Is it safe to exchange DOT for GRT on GhostSwap?

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

### How does a cross-chain DOT to GRT swap work?

Polkadot lives on Polkadot and The Graph on Ethereum, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your DOT on Polkadot and pays native GRT on Ethereum, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees.

### What happens if my DOT to GRT 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.
