## FAQ

### How long does it take to swap FDUSD to ADA on GhostSwap?

Most FDUSD to ADA swaps are paid out within 5–15 minutes: the FDUSD deposit needs under a minute to confirm on BNB Smart Chain, then the ADA is sent to your wallet, and Cardano confirms the payout in a few minutes (blocks about every 20 seconds). Busy networks can add a few minutes.

### How much is 1 FDUSD in ADA?

1 FDUSD is worth about 3.9648 ADA at the market rate, before fees (market prices, 11 Oct 2026). GhostSwap's quote in the exchange box already includes the service fee and the ADA network fee. The rate floats with the market until your FDUSD deposit confirms, so the exchange box shows the exact amount before you send.

### Do I need KYC or an account to exchange FDUSD to ADA?

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

### What are the fees for converting First Digital USD to Cardano?

The GhostSwap fee is already included in the rate in the exchange box, so the ADA amount you see is what you receive. On top of that, your wallet needs a little BNB to pay the BNB Smart Chain network fee for sending FDUSD.

### What wallet should I use to receive ADA?

To receive Cardano from your swap, we recommend using Eternl, Lace or VESPR. Make sure your wallet supports the Cardano network before starting the exchange. Double-check your ADA address before confirming, cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### What format is the ADA address?

Use a Cardano address: it starts with addr1. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand.

### Can I track my FDUSD to ADA 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 FDUSD payment on BscScan (https://bscscan.com) and your incoming ADA on Cardanoscan (https://cardanoscan.io).

### Is it safe to exchange FDUSD for ADA on GhostSwap?

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

### Why swap FDUSD to ADA?

Converting First Digital USD to Cardano moves dollar-pegged funds into Cardano. Cardano is used for staking, governance, and peer-reviewed smart contracts. Unlike a stablecoin, its price moves with the market. GhostSwap needs no account on a centralized exchange and no KYC.

### What happens if my FDUSD to ADA exchange fails?

If a swap cannot be completed, the FDUSD is refunded to the BNB Smart Chain 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.
