## FAQ

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

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

### How much is 1 DOT in USDT AVAX?

1 DOT is worth about 1.2201 USDT AVAX 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 USDT AVAX 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 USDT AVAX?

No. GhostSwap has no accounts: you paste the Avalanche C-Chain address that should receive the USDT AVAX, send DOT from your own wallet, and the USDT AVAX goes straight to that address. No email, phone number or ID upload.

### What are the fees for converting Polkadot to Tether (Avalanche)?

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

To receive Tether (Avalanche) from your swap, we recommend using Core or MetaMask. Make sure your wallet supports the Avalanche C-Chain network before starting the exchange. Double-check your USDT AVAX address before confirming — cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### What format is the USDT AVAX address?

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

### Can I track my DOT to USDT AVAX 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 USDT AVAX on Snowtrace (https://snowtrace.io).

### Is it safe to exchange DOT for USDT AVAX on GhostSwap?

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

### Why swap DOT to USDT AVAX?

Converting Polkadot to Tether (Avalanche) moves the value into a dollar-pegged stablecoin in your own wallet, without using a centralized exchange or going through KYC.

### What happens if my DOT to USDT AVAX 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.
