## FAQ

### How long does it take to swap KAS to XAUT on GhostSwap?

Most KAS to XAUT swaps are paid out within 10–25 minutes: the KAS deposit needs a few minutes to confirm on Kaspa, then the XAUT 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 KAS in XAUT?

1 KAS is worth about 0.0000102479 XAUT 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 XAUT network fee. The rate floats with the market until your KAS deposit confirms, so the exchange box shows the exact amount before you send.

### Do I need KYC or an account to exchange KAS to XAUT?

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

### What are the fees for converting Kaspa to Tether Gold?

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

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

To receive Tether Gold from your swap, we recommend using MetaMask, Rabby or a Ledger. Make sure your wallet supports the Ethereum network before starting the exchange. Double-check your XAUT address before confirming — cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### What format is the XAUT 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 XAUT to an address on another network can lose the coins.

### Can I track my KAS to XAUT 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 KAS payment on Kaspa Explorer (https://explorer.kaspa.org) and your incoming XAUT on Etherscan (https://etherscan.io).

### Is it safe to exchange KAS for XAUT on GhostSwap?

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

### How does a cross-chain KAS to XAUT swap work?

Kaspa lives on Kaspa and Tether Gold on Ethereum, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your KAS on Kaspa and pays native XAUT on Ethereum, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees.

### What happens if my KAS to XAUT exchange fails?

If a swap cannot be completed, the KAS is refunded to the Kaspa 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.
