## FAQ

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

Most LINK to XAUT swaps finish in 10–25 minutes. Your LINK deposit needs about 2–5 minutes to confirm on Ethereum; after that the XAUT is sent to your wallet and Ethereum confirms it in about 2–5 minutes. Busy networks can add a few minutes.

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

No. GhostSwap has no accounts: you paste the Ethereum address that should receive the XAUT, send LINK 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 Link 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, your wallet needs a little ETH to pay the Ethereum network fee for sending LINK.

### 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 a 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 LINK 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 LINK payment on Etherscan (https://etherscan.io).

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

GhostSwap is non-custodial: there is no account balance holding your coins. Your LINK 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.

### What happens if my LINK to XAUT 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.
