## FAQ

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

Most NEAR to ETH swaps are paid out within 5–15 minutes: the NEAR deposit needs a few seconds to confirm on NEAR, 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 NEAR in ETH?

1 NEAR is worth about 0.002036 ETH 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 ETH network fee. The rate floats with the market until your NEAR deposit confirms, so the exchange box shows the exact amount before you send.

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

No. GhostSwap has no accounts: you paste the Ethereum address that should receive the ETH, send NEAR 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 NEAR Protocol 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, the NEAR network fee for your deposit is paid in NEAR by your wallet.

### 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 NEAR 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 NEAR payment on NearBlocks (https://nearblocks.io) and your incoming ETH on Etherscan (https://etherscan.io).

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

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

### How does a cross-chain NEAR to ETH swap work?

NEAR Protocol lives on NEAR and Ethereum on Ethereum, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your NEAR on NEAR and pays native ETH on Ethereum, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees.

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

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