## MEW for Tezos: a Solana meme coin into XTZ

MEW (cat in a dogs world) is a cat-themed meme coin issued as an SPL token on Solana. This pair swaps it for XTZ, the native coin of Tezos. Tezos is a proof-of-stake chain known for its NFT art scene on marketplaces such as objkt, and for baking, its name for validating blocks. The XTZ goes to your own tz address, with no account.

Solana confirms the MEW deposit in under a minute and the Tezos payout is usually confirmed within a few minutes, so most swaps finish in 5 to 15 minutes. The MEW transfer pays its fee in SOL, so keep a little SOL in the sending wallet. A brand-new tz1 address can receive the XTZ without any setup first.

### Tips

- Paste a Tezos address starting with tz1, tz2 or tz3 from Temple, Kukai or a Ledger. Do not use a KT1 address, which belongs to a smart contract, or a 0x address from Etherlink, a separate network.
- Send MEW from Phantom, Solflare or another Solana wallet you control and enter that address as the refund address.
- The first time a brand-new Tezos account sends XTZ, the wallet adds a one-time reveal step with a small extra fee. That is normal.

### Can I swap MEW for XTZ without KYC?

Yes. A standard swap needs no account, email or ID. Paste your Tezos address, check the floating rate and send the MEW from your Solana wallet.

### Can I delegate the XTZ to a baker right away?

Yes. You set delegation in Temple or Kukai, and it does not lock the coins, so the XTZ stays spendable. Staking is a separate option that freezes the XTZ until an unstake delay has passed.

## FAQ

### How long does it take to swap MEW to XTZ on GhostSwap?

Most MEW to XTZ swaps finish in 5–15 minutes. Your MEW deposit needs under a minute to confirm on Solana; after that the XTZ is sent to your wallet and Tezos confirms it in a few minutes. Busy networks can add a few minutes.

### What are the fees for converting cat in a dogs world to Tezos?

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

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

To receive Tezos from your swap, we recommend using Temple or Kukai. Make sure your wallet supports the Tezos network before starting the exchange. Double-check your XTZ address before confirming — cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### What format is the XTZ address?

Use a Tezos address: it starts with tz1, tz2 or tz3. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand.

### Can I track my MEW to XTZ 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 MEW payment on Solscan (https://solscan.io) and your incoming XTZ on TzKT (https://tzkt.io).

### Is it safe to exchange MEW for XTZ on GhostSwap?

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

### How does a cross-chain MEW to XTZ swap work?

cat in a dogs world lives on Solana and Tezos on Tezos, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your MEW on Solana and pays native XTZ on Tezos, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees.

### What happens if my MEW to XTZ exchange fails?

If a swap cannot be completed, the MEW is refunded to the Solana 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.
