Most ETC to NEAR swaps are paid out within 10–25 minutes: the ETC deposit needs a few minutes to confirm on Ethereum Classic, then the NEAR is sent to your wallet, and NEAR confirms the payout in a few seconds. Busy networks can add a few minutes. ### How much is 1 ETC in NEAR? 1 ETC is worth about 1.5341 NEAR 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 NEAR 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 NEAR? No. GhostSwap has no accounts: you paste the NEAR address that should receive the NEAR, send ETC from your own wallet, and the NEAR goes straight to that address. No email, phone number or ID upload. ### What are the fees for converting Ethereum Classic to NEAR Protocol? The GhostSwap fee is already included in the rate in the exchange box, so the NEAR 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 NEAR? To receive NEAR Protocol from your swap, we recommend using Meteor, HOT Wallet or MyNearWallet. Make sure your wallet supports the NEAR network before starting the exchange. Double-check your NEAR address before confirming, cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed. ### What format is the NEAR address? Use a NEAR address: it is a named account such as alice.near or 64 hexadecimal characters. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand. ### Can I track my ETC to NEAR 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 NEAR on NearBlocks (https://nearblocks.io). ### Is it safe to exchange ETC for NEAR on GhostSwap? GhostSwap is non-custodial: there is no account balance holding your coins. Your ETC deposit is converted and the NEAR is sent straight to the NEAR address you enter, so check that address twice, NEAR transfers cannot be reversed. ### How does a cross-chain ETC to NEAR swap work? Ethereum Classic lives on Ethereum Classic and NEAR Protocol on NEAR, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your ETC on Ethereum Classic and pays native NEAR on NEAR, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees. ### What happens if my ETC to NEAR 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: NEAR to ETC](https://ghostswap.io/exchange/nearmainnet-etc/) ([Markdown](https://ghostswap.io/exchange/nearmainnet-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)
