## FAQ

### How long does it take to swap PYUSD to TIA on GhostSwap?

Most PYUSD to TIA swaps are paid out within 10–25 minutes: the PYUSD deposit needs about 2–5 minutes to confirm on Ethereum, then the TIA is sent to your wallet, and Celestia confirms the payout in under a minute. Busy networks can add a few minutes.

### How much is 1 PYUSD in TIA?

1 PYUSD is worth about 2.2230 TIA 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 TIA network fee. The rate floats with the market until your PYUSD deposit confirms, so the exchange box shows the exact amount before you send.

### Do I need KYC or an account to exchange PYUSD to TIA?

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

### What are the fees for converting PayPal USD to Celestia?

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

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

To receive Celestia from your swap, we recommend using Keplr or Trust Wallet. Make sure your wallet supports the Celestia network before starting the exchange. Double-check your TIA address before confirming — cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### What format is the TIA address?

Use a Celestia address: it starts with celestia1. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand.

### Do I need an Extra ID to receive TIA?

Only if the TIA goes to an exchange or custodial account that gave you an Extra ID; enter it in the field shown in the exchange box. A personal TIA wallet does not need one.

### Can I track my PYUSD to TIA 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 PYUSD payment on Etherscan (https://etherscan.io) and your incoming TIA on Mintscan (https://www.mintscan.io/celestia).

### Is it safe to exchange PYUSD for TIA on GhostSwap?

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

### Why swap PYUSD to TIA?

Converting PayPal USD to Celestia moves dollar-pegged funds into Celestia. Celestia is used for paying for data availability on the Celestia modular network. Unlike a stablecoin, its price moves with the market. GhostSwap needs no account on a centralized exchange and no KYC.

### What happens if my PYUSD to TIA exchange fails?

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