## FAQ

### How long does it take to swap ICP to OP on GhostSwap?

Most ICP to OP swaps are paid out within 5–15 minutes: the ICP deposit needs a few seconds to confirm on Internet Computer, then the OP is sent to your wallet, and OP Mainnet confirms the payout in about a minute. Busy networks can add a few minutes.

### How much is 1 ICP in OP?

1 ICP is worth about 26.1512 OP 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 OP network fee. The rate floats with the market until your ICP deposit confirms, so the exchange box shows the exact amount before you send.

### Do I need KYC or an account to exchange ICP to OP?

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

### What are the fees for converting Internet Computer to Optimism?

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

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

To receive Optimism from your swap, we recommend using MetaMask or Rabby. Make sure your wallet supports the OP Mainnet (Ethereum layer 2) network before starting the exchange. Double-check your OP address before confirming, cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### What format is the OP address?

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

### Can I track my ICP to OP 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 ICP payment on the ICP Dashboard (https://dashboard.internetcomputer.org) and your incoming OP on Optimistic Etherscan (https://optimistic.etherscan.io).

### Is it safe to exchange ICP for OP on GhostSwap?

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

### How does a cross-chain ICP to OP swap work?

Internet Computer lives on Internet Computer and Optimism on OP Mainnet, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your ICP on Internet Computer and pays native OP on OP Mainnet, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees.

### What happens if my ICP to OP exchange fails?

If a swap cannot be completed, the ICP is refunded to the Internet Computer 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.
