Most FIL to BRETT swaps are paid out within 10–25 minutes: the FIL deposit needs a few minutes to confirm on Filecoin, then the BRETT is sent to your wallet, and Base confirms the payout in about a minute. Busy networks can add a few minutes. ### How much is 1 FIL in BRETT? 1 FIL is worth about 204.9045 BRETT 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 BRETT 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 BRETT? No. GhostSwap has no accounts: you paste the Base address that should receive the BRETT, send FIL from your own wallet, and the BRETT goes straight to that address. No email, phone number or ID upload. ### What are the fees for converting Filecoin to Brett? The GhostSwap fee is already included in the rate in the exchange box, so the BRETT 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 BRETT? To receive Brett from your swap, we recommend using Coinbase Wallet, MetaMask or Rabby. Make sure your wallet supports the Base (Ethereum layer 2) network before starting the exchange. Double-check your BRETT address before confirming, cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed. ### What format is the BRETT address? Use a Base address: it starts with 0x followed by 40 hexadecimal characters. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand. Sending BRETT to an address on another network can lose the coins. ### Can I track my FIL to BRETT 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 BRETT on BaseScan (https://basescan.org). ### Is it safe to exchange FIL for BRETT on GhostSwap? GhostSwap is non-custodial: there is no account balance holding your coins. Your FIL deposit is converted and the BRETT is sent straight to the Base address you enter, so check that address twice, Base transfers cannot be reversed. ### How does a cross-chain FIL to BRETT swap work? Filecoin lives on Filecoin and Brett on Base, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your FIL on Filecoin and pays native BRETT on Base, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees. ### What happens if my FIL to BRETT 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. ## Related - [Reverse: BRETT to FIL](https://ghostswap.io/exchange/brett-fil/) ([Markdown](https://ghostswap.io/exchange/brett-fil.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)
