## From OP Mainnet to Theta: swapping OP for THETA

OP is the governance token of the Optimism Collective and runs on OP Mainnet, an Ethereum layer 2. THETA is the staking and governance coin of Theta Network, a separate layer-1 chain built for video delivery and edge computing. This pair moves OP from a rollup into native THETA on Theta mainnet, for example to stake it, with no account.

OP Mainnet confirms the deposit in about a minute, and most swaps finish in 5 to 15 minutes. Both chains use 0x addresses, so the format alone does not tell you which network a wallet is set up for. Copy the receive address from Theta Wallet, which shows both THETA and TFUEL.

### Tips

- Paste a Theta mainnet address (0x plus 40 hex characters) from Theta Wallet.
- Send OP from OP Mainnet, not from Ethereum mainnet or another chain, keep a little ETH on OP Mainnet for gas, and enter that address as the refund address.
- Get a little TFUEL before you stake or move the THETA, because Theta charges every fee in TFUEL. TFUEL is a separate coin in the exchange box.

### Can I swap OP to THETA without KYC?

Yes. A standard swap needs no account, email or ID. Paste your Theta address, check the floating rate and send the OP from OP Mainnet.

### Is the THETA an ERC-20 token?

No. THETA started as an ERC-20 but moved to its own Theta mainnet in 2019. This pair pays native THETA on Theta mainnet, not a token on Ethereum or OP Mainnet.

## FAQ

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

Most OP to THETA swaps are paid out within 5–15 minutes: the OP deposit needs about a minute to confirm on OP Mainnet, then the THETA is sent to your wallet, and Theta Network confirms the payout in a few minutes.

### How much is 1 OP in THETA?

1 OP is worth about 0.561961 THETA 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 THETA network fee. The minimum for this pair is about 250 OP. The OP Mainnet network fee for sending the OP is paid separately, in ETH on OP Mainnet. The rate floats with the market until your OP deposit confirms.

### Can I send OP straight to my THETA address?

No. Theta Network addresses look the same as OP Mainnet addresses, but OP sent to one stays on OP Mainnet: it lands at that address on OP Mainnet and never becomes THETA on Theta Network. To swap, send the OP to the one-time deposit address GhostSwap shows, and the THETA is paid to the Theta Network address you enter.

### What wallet and address do I need to receive THETA?

Use a Theta Network address from a wallet you control, such as Theta Wallet. The address starts with 0x followed by 40 hexadecimal characters. GhostSwap never holds your funds: the THETA is sent straight to the address you enter.

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

If a swap cannot be completed, the OP is refunded to the OP Mainnet address you entered as the sender address.
