## FAQ

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

Most DOT to LEO swaps finish in 5–15 minutes. Your DOT deposit needs under a minute to confirm on Polkadot; after that the LEO is sent to your wallet and Ethereum confirms it in about 2–5 minutes. Busy networks can add a few minutes.

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

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

### What are the fees for converting Polkadot to UNUS SED LEO?

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

To receive UNUS SED LEO 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 LEO address before confirming — cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### What format is the LEO address?

Use a 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 LEO to an address on another network can lose the coins.

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

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

GhostSwap is non-custodial: there is no account balance holding your coins. Your DOT deposit is converted and the LEO 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 LEO swap work?

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

### What happens if my DOT to LEO 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.
