## FAQ

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

Most TIA to BTC swaps finish in 5–15 minutes. Your TIA deposit needs under a minute to confirm on Celestia; 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 TIA to BTC?

No. GhostSwap has no accounts: you paste the Bitcoin address that should receive the BTC, send TIA 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 Celestia 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 Celestia network fee for your deposit is paid in TIA 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 TIA 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 TIA payment on Mintscan (https://www.mintscan.io/celestia) and your incoming BTC on Mempool.space (https://mempool.space).

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

GhostSwap is non-custodial: there is no account balance holding your coins. Your TIA 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 TIA to BTC swap work?

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

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

If a swap cannot be completed, the TIA is refunded to the Celestia 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.
