Most USDC to INJ swaps are paid out within 10–25 minutes: the USDC deposit needs about 2–5 minutes to confirm on Ethereum, then the INJ is sent to your wallet, and Injective confirms the payout in under a minute. Busy networks can add a few minutes. ### How much is 1 USDC in INJ? 1 USDC is worth about 0.126873 INJ 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 INJ network fee. The rate floats with the market until your USDC deposit confirms, so the exchange box shows the exact amount before you send. ### Do I need KYC or an account to exchange USDC to INJ? No. GhostSwap has no accounts: you paste the Injective address that should receive the INJ, send USDC from your own wallet, and the INJ goes straight to that address. No email, phone number or ID upload. ### What are the fees for converting USD Coin to Injective Protocol? The GhostSwap fee is already included in the rate in the exchange box, so the INJ 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 USDC. ### What wallet should I use to receive INJ? To receive Injective Protocol from your swap, we recommend using Keplr or Trust Wallet. Make sure your wallet supports the Injective network before starting the exchange. Double-check your INJ address before confirming, cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed. ### What format is the INJ address? Use an Injective address: it starts with inj1. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand. ### Do I need a Memo to receive INJ? Only if the INJ goes to an exchange or custodial account that gave you a Memo; enter it in the field shown in the exchange box. A personal INJ wallet does not need one. ### Can I track my USDC to INJ 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 USDC payment on Etherscan (https://etherscan.io) and your incoming INJ on Mintscan (https://www.mintscan.io/injective). ### Is it safe to exchange USDC for INJ on GhostSwap? GhostSwap is non-custodial: there is no account balance holding your coins. Your USDC deposit is converted and the INJ is sent straight to the Injective address you enter, so check that address twice, Injective transfers cannot be reversed. ### Why swap USDC to INJ? Converting USD Coin to Injective Protocol moves dollar-pegged funds into Injective Protocol. Injective Protocol is the native coin of Injective. Unlike a stablecoin, its price moves with the market. GhostSwap needs no account on a centralized exchange and no KYC. ### What happens if my USDC to INJ exchange fails? If a swap cannot be completed, the USDC 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. ## Related - [Reverse: INJ to USDC](https://ghostswap.io/exchange/inj-usdc/) ([Markdown](https://ghostswap.io/exchange/inj-usdc.md)) - [All GhostSwap pairs](https://ghostswap.io/exchange/) - [How to exchange](https://ghostswap.io/how-to-exchange/) - [Site guide for AI assistants](https://ghostswap.io/llms.txt)
