## FAQ

### How long does it take to swap OP to ORCA on GhostSwap?

Most OP to ORCA swaps are paid out within 5–15 minutes: the OP deposit needs about a minute to confirm on OP Mainnet, then the ORCA is sent to your wallet, and Solana confirms the payout in under a minute. Busy networks can add a few minutes.

### How much is 1 OP in ORCA?

1 OP is worth about 0.073622 ORCA at the market rate, before fees (market prices, 2 Oct 2026). GhostSwap's quote in the exchange box already includes the service fee and the ORCA network fee. The rate floats with the market until your OP deposit confirms, so the exchange box shows the exact amount before you send.

### Do I need KYC or an account to exchange OP to ORCA?

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

### What are the fees for converting Optimism to Orca?

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

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

To receive Orca from your swap, we recommend using Phantom, Solflare or a Ledger. Make sure your wallet supports the Solana (SPL token) network before starting the exchange. Double-check your ORCA address before confirming — cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### What format is the ORCA address?

Use a Solana address: it is 32–44 letters and numbers with no 0x prefix. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand. Sending ORCA to an address on another network can lose the coins.

### Can I track my OP to ORCA 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 OP payment on Optimistic Etherscan (https://optimistic.etherscan.io) and your incoming ORCA on Solscan (https://solscan.io).

### Is it safe to exchange OP for ORCA on GhostSwap?

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

### How does a cross-chain OP to ORCA swap work?

Optimism lives on OP Mainnet and Orca on Solana, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your OP on OP Mainnet and pays native ORCA on Solana, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees.

### What happens if my OP to ORCA exchange fails?

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