## FAQ

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

Most DOT to SHIB swaps are paid out within 5–15 minutes: the DOT deposit needs under a minute to confirm on Polkadot, then the SHIB 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 SHIB?

1 DOT is worth about 204,081.63 SHIB 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 SHIB 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 SHIB?

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

### What are the fees for converting Polkadot to SHIBA INU?

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

To receive SHIBA INU from your swap, we recommend using MetaMask, Rabby or a Ledger. Make sure your wallet supports the Ethereum (ERC-20) network before starting the exchange. Double-check your SHIB address before confirming, cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### What format is the SHIB 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 SHIB to an address on another network can lose the coins.

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

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

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

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

### What happens if my DOT to SHIB 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.
