## FAQ

### How long does it take to swap LINK to ALGO on GhostSwap?

Most LINK to ALGO swaps are paid out within 10–25 minutes: the LINK deposit needs about 2–5 minutes to confirm on Ethereum, then the ALGO is sent to your wallet, and Algorand confirms the payout in under a minute. Busy networks can add a few minutes.

### How much is 1 LINK in ALGO?

1 LINK is worth about 101.0960 ALGO 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 ALGO network fee. The rate floats with the market until your LINK deposit confirms, so the exchange box shows the exact amount before you send.

### Do I need KYC or an account to exchange LINK to ALGO?

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

### What are the fees for converting Link to Algorand?

The GhostSwap fee is already included in the rate in the exchange box, so the ALGO 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 LINK.

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

To receive Algorand from your swap, we recommend using Pera or Defly. Make sure your wallet supports the Algorand network before starting the exchange. Double-check your ALGO address before confirming, cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### What format is the ALGO address?

Use an Algorand address: it is 58 characters of capital letters and digits. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand.

### Can I track my LINK to ALGO 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 LINK payment on Etherscan (https://etherscan.io) and your incoming ALGO on Allo (https://allo.info).

### Is it safe to exchange LINK for ALGO on GhostSwap?

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

### How does a cross-chain LINK to ALGO swap work?

Link lives on Ethereum and Algorand on Algorand, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your LINK on Ethereum and pays native ALGO on Algorand, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees.

### What happens if my LINK to ALGO exchange fails?

If a swap cannot be completed, the LINK 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.
