## FAQ

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

Most ETC to XTZ swaps finish in 10–25 minutes. Your ETC deposit needs a few minutes to confirm on Ethereum Classic; after that the XTZ is sent to your wallet and Tezos confirms it in a few minutes. Busy networks can add a few minutes.

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

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

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

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

To receive Tezos from your swap, we recommend using Temple or Kukai. Make sure your wallet supports the Tezos network before starting the exchange. Double-check your XTZ address before confirming — cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### What format is the XTZ address?

Use a Tezos address: it starts with tz1, tz2 or tz3. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand.

### Can I track my ETC to XTZ 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 XTZ on TzKT (https://tzkt.io).

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

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

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

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

### What happens if my ETC to XTZ 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.
