FIL

What is Filecoin?

Filecoin (FIL) is a decentralized storage network that allows anyone to rent out unused hard drive space and earn FIL tokens in return. Built by Protocol Labs (the team behind IPFS), Filecoin creates a marketplace for storage where prices are determined by supply and demand rather than corporate pricing. FIL is used to pay for storage, retrieve data, and participate in the network's proof-of-replication and proof-of-spacetime consensus mechanisms.

ADA

What is Cardano?

Cardano (ADA) is a third-generation blockchain platform built on peer-reviewed research and formal verification methods. Developed by Ethereum co-founder Charles Hoskinson, Cardano takes a methodical, academic approach to solving blockchain scalability, interoperability, and sustainability. ADA is used for staking, governance voting, and paying transaction fees on the network. Cardano's Ouroboros proof-of-stake consensus protocol is one of the most energy-efficient in the industry. The platform supports smart contracts through Plutus and continues to expand its DeFi and real-world application ecosystem.

FIL to ADA: questions and answers

Everything you need to know about exchanging FIL to ADA on GhostSwap.

How long does it take to swap FIL to ADA on GhostSwap?
Most FIL to ADA swaps are paid out within 10–25 minutes: the FIL deposit needs a few minutes to confirm on Filecoin, 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 FIL in ADA?
1 FIL is worth about 4.1981 ADA 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 ADA network fee. The rate floats with the market until your FIL deposit confirms, so the exchange box shows the exact amount before you send.
Do I need KYC or an account to exchange FIL to ADA?
No. GhostSwap has no accounts: you paste the Cardano address that should receive the ADA, send FIL 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 Filecoin 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, the Filecoin network fee for your deposit is paid in FIL by your wallet.
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 FIL 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 FIL payment on Filfox (https://filfox.info) and your incoming ADA on Cardanoscan (https://cardanoscan.io).
Is it safe to exchange FIL for ADA on GhostSwap?
GhostSwap is non-custodial: there is no account balance holding your coins. Your FIL 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.
How does a cross-chain FIL to ADA swap work?
Filecoin lives on Filecoin and Cardano on Cardano, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your FIL on Filecoin and pays native ADA on Cardano, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees.
What happens if my FIL to ADA exchange fails?
If a swap cannot be completed, the FIL is refunded to the Filecoin 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.
