## FAQ

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

Most TFUEL to BTC swaps finish in 10–25 minutes. Your TFUEL deposit needs a few minutes to confirm on Theta Network; after that the BTC is sent to your wallet and Bitcoin confirms it in 10–30 minutes (1–3 confirmations). Busy networks can add a few minutes.

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

No. GhostSwap has no accounts: you paste the Bitcoin address that should receive the BTC, send TFUEL 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 Theta Fuel 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, the Theta Network network fee for your deposit is paid in TFUEL by your wallet.

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

To receive Bitcoin from your swap, we recommend using Electrum, Sparrow Wallet, or a hardware wallet like Ledger or Trezor. 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 TFUEL 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 TFUEL payment on Theta Explorer (https://explorer.thetatoken.org) and your incoming BTC on Mempool.space (https://mempool.space).

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

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

### How does a cross-chain TFUEL to BTC swap work?

Theta Fuel lives on Theta Network and Bitcoin on Bitcoin, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your TFUEL on Theta Network and pays native BTC on Bitcoin, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees.

### What happens if my TFUEL to BTC exchange fails?

If a swap cannot be completed, the TFUEL is refunded to the Theta Network 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.
