## FAQ

### How long does it take to swap USDT AVAX to DRIFT on GhostSwap?

Most USDT AVAX to DRIFT swaps are paid out within 5–15 minutes: the USDT AVAX deposit needs a few seconds to confirm on Avalanche C-Chain, then the DRIFT is sent to your wallet, and Solana confirms the payout in under a minute. Busy networks can add a few minutes.

### Do I need KYC or an account to exchange USDT AVAX to DRIFT?

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

### What are the fees for converting Tether (Avalanche) to Drift?

The GhostSwap fee is already included in the rate in the exchange box, so the DRIFT amount you see is what you receive. On top of that, your wallet needs a little AVAX to pay the Avalanche C-Chain network fee for sending USDT AVAX.

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

To receive Drift from your swap, we recommend using Phantom, Solflare or a Ledger. Make sure your wallet supports the Solana (SPL token) network before starting the exchange. Double-check your DRIFT address before confirming — cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### What format is the DRIFT address?

Use a Solana address: it is 32–44 letters and numbers with no 0x prefix. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand. Sending DRIFT to an address on another network can lose the coins.

### Can I track my USDT AVAX to DRIFT 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 USDT AVAX payment on Snowtrace (https://snowtrace.io) and your incoming DRIFT on Solscan (https://solscan.io).

### Is it safe to exchange USDT AVAX for DRIFT on GhostSwap?

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

### Why swap USDT AVAX to DRIFT?

Converting Tether (Avalanche) to Drift moves dollar-pegged funds into Drift. Drift is used for governance of the Drift perpetuals exchange on Solana. Unlike a stablecoin, its price moves with the market. GhostSwap needs no account on a centralized exchange and no KYC.

### What happens if my USDT AVAX to DRIFT exchange fails?

If a swap cannot be completed, the USDT AVAX is refunded to the Avalanche C-Chain 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.
