## FAQ

### How long does it take to swap ETC to DRIFT on GhostSwap?

Most ETC to DRIFT swaps are paid out within 10–25 minutes: the ETC deposit needs a few minutes to confirm on Ethereum Classic, then the DRIFT is sent to your wallet, and Solana confirms the payout in under a minute. Busy networks can add a few minutes.

### Do I need KYC or an account to exchange ETC to DRIFT?

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

### What are the fees for converting Ethereum Classic to Drift?

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

To receive Drift from your swap, we recommend using Phantom, Solflare or a Ledger. Make sure your wallet supports the Solana (SPL token) network before starting the exchange. Double-check your DRIFT address before confirming, cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### What format is the DRIFT address?

Use a Solana address: it is 32–44 letters and numbers with no 0x prefix. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand. Sending DRIFT to an address on another network can lose the coins.

### Can I track my ETC to DRIFT 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 DRIFT on Solscan (https://solscan.io).

### Is it safe to exchange ETC for DRIFT on GhostSwap?

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

### How does a cross-chain ETC to DRIFT swap work?

Ethereum Classic lives on Ethereum Classic and Drift on Solana, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your ETC on Ethereum Classic and pays native DRIFT on Solana, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees.

### What happens if my ETC to DRIFT 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.
