Most ETC to ATOM swaps are paid out within 10–25 minutes: the ETC deposit needs a few minutes to confirm on Ethereum Classic, then the ATOM is sent to your wallet, and Cosmos Hub confirms the payout in under a minute. Busy networks can add a few minutes. ### How much is 1 ETC in ATOM? 1 ETC is worth about 4.8150 ATOM 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 ATOM network fee. The rate floats with the market until your ETC deposit confirms, so the exchange box shows the exact amount before you send. ### Do I need KYC or an account to exchange ETC to ATOM? No. GhostSwap has no accounts: you paste the Cosmos Hub address that should receive the ATOM, send ETC from your own wallet, and the ATOM goes straight to that address. No email, phone number or ID upload. ### What are the fees for converting Ethereum Classic to Cosmos? The GhostSwap fee is already included in the rate in the exchange box, so the ATOM amount you see is what you receive. On top of that, the Ethereum Classic network fee for your deposit is paid in ETC by your wallet. ### What wallet should I use to receive ATOM? To receive Cosmos from your swap, we recommend using Keplr, Trust Wallet or Vultisig. Make sure your wallet supports the Cosmos Hub network before starting the exchange. Double-check your ATOM address before confirming, cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed. ### What format is the ATOM address? Use a Cosmos Hub address: it starts with cosmos1. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand. ### Do I need a Memo to receive ATOM? Only if the ATOM goes to an exchange or custodial account that gave you a Memo; enter it in the field shown in the exchange box. A personal ATOM wallet does not need one. ### Can I track my ETC to ATOM 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 ETC payment on Blockscout (https://etc.blockscout.com) and your incoming ATOM on Mintscan (https://www.mintscan.io/cosmos). ### Is it safe to exchange ETC for ATOM on GhostSwap? GhostSwap is non-custodial: there is no account balance holding your coins. Your ETC deposit is converted and the ATOM is sent straight to the Cosmos Hub address you enter, so check that address twice, Cosmos Hub transfers cannot be reversed. ### How does a cross-chain ETC to ATOM swap work? Ethereum Classic lives on Ethereum Classic and Cosmos on Cosmos Hub, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your ETC on Ethereum Classic and pays native ATOM on Cosmos Hub, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees. ### What happens if my ETC to ATOM exchange fails? If a swap cannot be completed, the ETC is refunded to the Ethereum Classic 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. ## Related - [Reverse: ATOM to ETC](https://ghostswap.io/exchange/atom-etc/) ([Markdown](https://ghostswap.io/exchange/atom-etc.md)) - [All GhostSwap pairs](https://ghostswap.io/exchange/) - [How to exchange](https://ghostswap.io/how-to-exchange/) - [Site guide for AI assistants](https://ghostswap.io/llms.txt)
