## FAQ

### How long does it take to swap LDO to ETH on GhostSwap?

Most LDO to ETH swaps are paid out within 10–25 minutes: the LDO deposit needs about 2–5 minutes to confirm on Ethereum, then the ETH 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 LDO in ETH?

1 LDO is worth about 0.000174 ETH at the market rate, before fees (market prices, 4 Oct 2026). GhostSwap's quote in the exchange box already includes the service fee and the ETH network fee. The rate floats with the market until your LDO deposit confirms, so the exchange box shows the exact amount before you send.

### Do I need KYC or an account to exchange LDO to ETH?

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

### What are the fees for converting Lido DAO to Ethereum?

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

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

To receive Ethereum 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 ETH address before confirming — cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### What format is the ETH 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.

### Can I track my LDO to ETH 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 LDO payment on Etherscan (https://etherscan.io).

### Is it safe to exchange LDO for ETH on GhostSwap?

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

### What happens if my LDO to ETH exchange fails?

If a swap cannot be completed, the LDO is refunded to the Ethereum 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.
