## FAQ

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

Most HNT to XLM swaps finish in 5–15 minutes. Your HNT deposit needs under a minute to confirm on Solana; after that the XLM is sent to your wallet and Stellar confirms it in a few seconds. Busy networks can add a few minutes.

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

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

### What are the fees for converting Helium to Stellar?

The GhostSwap fee is already included in the rate in the exchange box, so the XLM 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 XLM?

To receive Stellar from your swap, we recommend using Lobstr or Freighter. Make sure your wallet supports the Stellar network before starting the exchange. Double-check your XLM address before confirming — cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### What format is the XLM address?

Use a Stellar address: it starts with G and is 56 characters long. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand.

### Do I need a Memo.ID to receive XLM?

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

### Can I track my HNT to XLM 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 XLM on StellarExpert (https://stellar.expert).

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

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

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

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

### What happens if my HNT to XLM 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.
