## FAQ

### How long does it take to swap HBAR to ATOM on GhostSwap?

Most HBAR to ATOM swaps finish in 5–15 minutes. Your HBAR deposit needs a few seconds to confirm on Hedera; after that the ATOM is sent to your wallet and Cosmos Hub confirms it in under a minute. Busy networks can add a few minutes.

### Do I need KYC or an account to exchange HBAR to ATOM?

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

### What are the fees for converting Hedera Hashgraph to Cosmos?

The GhostSwap fee is already included in the rate in the exchange box, so the ATOM amount you see is what you receive. On top of that, the Hedera network fee for your deposit is paid in HBAR by your wallet.

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

To receive Cosmos from your swap, we recommend using Keplr or Trust Wallet. Make sure your wallet supports the Cosmos Hub network before starting the exchange. Double-check your ATOM address before confirming — cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### What format is the ATOM address?

Use a Cosmos Hub address: it starts with cosmos1. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand.

### Do I need a Memo to receive ATOM?

Only if the ATOM goes to an exchange or custodial account that gave you a Memo; enter it in the field shown in the exchange box. A personal ATOM wallet does not need one.

### Can I track my HBAR to ATOM 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 HBAR payment on HashScan (https://hashscan.io) and your incoming ATOM on Mintscan (https://www.mintscan.io/cosmos).

### Is it safe to exchange HBAR for ATOM on GhostSwap?

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

### How does a cross-chain HBAR to ATOM swap work?

Hedera Hashgraph lives on Hedera and Cosmos on Cosmos Hub, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your HBAR on Hedera and pays native ATOM on Cosmos Hub, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees.

### What happens if my HBAR to ATOM exchange fails?

If a swap cannot be completed, the HBAR is refunded to the Hedera 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.
