## FAQ

### How long does it take to swap TAO to XRP on GhostSwap?

Most TAO to XRP swaps are paid out within 10–25 minutes: the TAO deposit needs a few minutes to confirm on Bittensor, then the XRP is sent to your wallet, and XRP Ledger confirms the payout in a few seconds. Busy networks can add a few minutes.

### How much is 1 TAO in XRP?

1 TAO is worth about 211.3546 XRP at the market rate, before fees (market prices, 12 Oct 2026). GhostSwap's quote in the exchange box already includes the service fee and the XRP network fee. The rate floats with the market until your TAO deposit confirms, so the exchange box shows the exact amount before you send.

### Do I need KYC or an account to exchange TAO to XRP?

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

### What are the fees for converting Bittensor to XRP?

The GhostSwap fee is already included in the rate in the exchange box, so the XRP amount you see is what you receive. On top of that, the Bittensor network fee for your deposit is paid in TAO by your wallet.

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

To receive XRP from your swap, we recommend using Xaman or a Ledger. A new XRP address only becomes active once it holds the small network reserve (1 XRP since December 2024). Make sure your wallet supports the XRP Ledger network before starting the exchange. Double-check your XRP address before confirming, cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### What format is the XRP address?

Use an XRP Ledger address: it starts with r. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand.

### Do I need a Destination Tag to receive XRP?

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

### Can I track my TAO to XRP 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 TAO payment on Taostats (https://taostats.io) and your incoming XRP on XRPSCAN (https://xrpscan.com).

### Is it safe to exchange TAO for XRP on GhostSwap?

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

### How does a cross-chain TAO to XRP swap work?

Bittensor lives on Bittensor and XRP on XRP Ledger, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your TAO on Bittensor and pays native XRP on XRP Ledger, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees.

### What happens if my TAO to XRP exchange fails?

If a swap cannot be completed, the TAO is refunded to the Bittensor 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.
