## FAQ

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

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

### How much is 1 DOT in HBAR?

1 DOT is worth about 11.6932 HBAR at the market rate, before fees (market prices, 8 Oct 2026). GhostSwap's quote in the exchange box already includes the service fee and the HBAR 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 HBAR?

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

### What are the fees for converting Polkadot to Hedera Hashgraph?

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

To receive Hedera Hashgraph from your swap, we recommend using HashPack. Make sure your wallet supports the Hedera network before starting the exchange. Double-check your HBAR address before confirming, cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### What format is the HBAR address?

Use a Hedera address: it is an account ID such as 0.0.12345. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand.

### Do I need a Memo to receive HBAR?

Only if the HBAR goes to an exchange or custodial account that gave you a Memo; enter it in the field shown in the exchange box. A personal HBAR wallet does not need one.

### Can I track my DOT to HBAR 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 HBAR on HashScan (https://hashscan.io).

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

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

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

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

### What happens if my DOT to HBAR 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.
