## FAQ

### How long does it take to swap VET to FIL on GhostSwap?

Most VET to FIL swaps finish in 5–15 minutes. Your VET deposit needs under a minute to confirm on VeChainThor; after that the FIL is sent to your wallet and Filecoin confirms it in a few minutes. Busy networks can add a few minutes.

### Do I need KYC or an account to exchange VET to FIL?

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

### What are the fees for converting VeChain to Filecoin?

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

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

To receive Filecoin from your swap, we recommend using Ledger, Trust Wallet, or Glif. Make sure your wallet supports the Filecoin network before starting the exchange. Double-check your FIL address before confirming — cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### What format is the FIL address?

Use a Filecoin address: it usually starts with f1. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand.

### Can I track my VET to FIL 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 VET payment on VeChain Explorer (https://explore.vechain.org) and your incoming FIL on Filfox (https://filfox.info).

### Is it safe to exchange VET for FIL on GhostSwap?

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

### How does a cross-chain VET to FIL swap work?

VeChain lives on VeChainThor and Filecoin on Filecoin, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your VET on VeChainThor and pays native FIL on Filecoin, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees.

### What happens if my VET to FIL exchange fails?

If a swap cannot be completed, the VET is refunded to the VeChainThor 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.
