## FAQ

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

Most RLUSD to BTC swaps are paid out within 10–25 minutes: the RLUSD deposit needs about 2–5 minutes to confirm on Ethereum, then the BTC is sent to your wallet, and Bitcoin confirms the payout in 10–30 minutes (1–3 confirmations). Busy networks can add a few minutes.

### How much is 1 RLUSD in BTC?

1 RLUSD is worth about 0.0000117071 BTC 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 BTC network fee. The rate floats with the market until your RLUSD deposit confirms, so the exchange box shows the exact amount before you send.

### Do I need KYC or an account to exchange RLUSD to BTC?

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

### What are the fees for converting Ripple USD to Bitcoin?

The GhostSwap fee is already included in the rate in the exchange box, so the BTC 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 BTC?

To receive Bitcoin from your swap, we recommend using Sparrow, Electrum or a hardware wallet. Make sure your wallet supports the Bitcoin network before starting the exchange. Double-check your BTC address before confirming — cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### What format is the BTC address?

Use a Bitcoin address: it starts with bc1, 3 or 1. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand.

### Can I track my RLUSD to BTC 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 BTC on mempool.space (https://mempool.space).

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

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

### Why swap RLUSD to BTC?

Converting Ripple USD to Bitcoin moves dollar-pegged funds into Bitcoin. Bitcoin is used for peer-to-peer payments and as a long-term store of value. Unlike a stablecoin, its price moves with the market. GhostSwap needs no account on a centralized exchange and no KYC.

### What happens if my RLUSD to BTC 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.
