## FAQ

### How long does it take to swap HNT to SAND on GhostSwap?

Most HNT to SAND swaps are paid out within 5–15 minutes: the HNT deposit needs under a minute to confirm on Solana, then the SAND is sent to your wallet, and Ethereum confirms the payout in about 2–5 minutes. Busy networks can add a few minutes.

### How much is 1 HNT in SAND?

1 HNT is worth about 8.1175 SAND at the market rate, before fees (market prices, 2 Oct 2026). GhostSwap's quote in the exchange box already includes the service fee and the SAND network fee. The rate floats with the market until your HNT deposit confirms, so the exchange box shows the exact amount before you send.

### Do I need KYC or an account to exchange HNT to SAND?

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

### What are the fees for converting Helium to The Sandbox?

The GhostSwap fee is already included in the rate in the exchange box, so the SAND amount you see is what you receive. On top of that, your wallet needs a little SOL to pay the Solana network fee for sending HNT.

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

To receive The Sandbox from your swap, we recommend using MetaMask, Rabby or a Ledger. Make sure your wallet supports the Ethereum (ERC-20) network before starting the exchange. Double-check your SAND address before confirming — cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### What format is the SAND address?

Use an Ethereum address: it starts with 0x followed by 40 hexadecimal characters. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand. Sending SAND to an address on another network can lose the coins.

### Can I track my HNT to SAND 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 HNT payment on Solscan (https://solscan.io) and your incoming SAND on Etherscan (https://etherscan.io).

### Is it safe to exchange HNT for SAND on GhostSwap?

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

### How does a cross-chain HNT to SAND swap work?

Helium lives on Solana and The Sandbox on Ethereum, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your HNT on Solana and pays native SAND on Ethereum, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees.

### What happens if my HNT to SAND exchange fails?

If a swap cannot be completed, the HNT is refunded to the Solana 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.
