## FAQ

### How long does it take to swap POPCAT to ADA on GhostSwap?

Most POPCAT to ADA swaps are paid out within 5–15 minutes: the POPCAT deposit needs under a minute to confirm on Solana, then the ADA is sent to your wallet, and Cardano confirms the payout in a few minutes (blocks about every 20 seconds). Busy networks can add a few minutes.

### Do I need KYC or an account to exchange POPCAT to ADA?

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

### What are the fees for converting Popcat to Cardano?

The GhostSwap fee is already included in the rate in the exchange box, so the ADA 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 POPCAT.

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

To receive Cardano from your swap, we recommend using Eternl, Lace or VESPR. Make sure your wallet supports the Cardano network before starting the exchange. Double-check your ADA address before confirming, cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### What format is the ADA address?

Use a Cardano address: it starts with addr1. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand.

### Can I track my POPCAT to ADA 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 POPCAT payment on Solscan (https://solscan.io) and your incoming ADA on Cardanoscan (https://cardanoscan.io).

### Is it safe to exchange POPCAT for ADA on GhostSwap?

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

### How does a cross-chain POPCAT to ADA swap work?

Popcat lives on Solana and Cardano on Cardano, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your POPCAT on Solana and pays native ADA on Cardano, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees.

### What happens if my POPCAT to ADA exchange fails?

If a swap cannot be completed, the POPCAT 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.
