## FAQ

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

Most RLUSD to ADA swaps finish in 10–25 minutes. Your RLUSD deposit needs about 2–5 minutes to confirm on Ethereum; after that the ADA is sent to your wallet and Cardano confirms it 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 RLUSD to ADA?

No. GhostSwap has no accounts: you paste the Cardano address that should receive the ADA, send RLUSD 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 Ripple USD 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 ETH to pay the Ethereum network fee for sending RLUSD.

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

To receive Cardano from your swap, we recommend using Eternl, Lace, or Daedalus wallet. 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 RLUSD 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 RLUSD payment on Etherscan (https://etherscan.io) and your incoming ADA on CardanoScan (https://cardanoscan.io).

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

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

### Why swap RLUSD to ADA?

Converting Ripple USD to Cardano allows you to move from a stable, dollar-pegged asset into Cardano for staking, governance, and peer-reviewed smart contracts. Using GhostSwap means you can enter a ADA position privately, without signing up for a centralized exchange or completing KYC verification.

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

If a swap cannot be completed, the RLUSD 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.
