## FAQ

### How long does it take to swap XAUT to KAS on GhostSwap?

Most XAUT to KAS swaps finish in 10–25 minutes. Your XAUT deposit needs about 2–5 minutes to confirm on Ethereum; after that the KAS is sent to your wallet and Kaspa confirms it in a few minutes. Busy networks can add a few minutes.

### Do I need KYC or an account to exchange XAUT to KAS?

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

### What are the fees for converting Tether Gold to Kaspa?

The GhostSwap fee is already included in the rate in the exchange box, so the KAS 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 XAUT.

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

To receive Kaspa from your swap, we recommend using Kaspium or KasWare. Make sure your wallet supports the Kaspa network before starting the exchange. Double-check your KAS address before confirming — cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### What format is the KAS address?

Use a Kaspa address: it starts with kaspa:. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand.

### Do I need a Public key to receive KAS?

Only if the KAS goes to an exchange or custodial account that gave you a Public key; enter it in the field shown in the exchange box. A personal KAS wallet does not need one.

### Can I track my XAUT to KAS 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 XAUT payment on Etherscan (https://etherscan.io) and your incoming KAS on the Kaspa Explorer (https://explorer.kaspa.org).

### Is it safe to exchange XAUT for KAS on GhostSwap?

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

### How does a cross-chain XAUT to KAS swap work?

Tether Gold lives on Ethereum and Kaspa on Kaspa, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your XAUT on Ethereum and pays native KAS on Kaspa, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees.

### What happens if my XAUT to KAS exchange fails?

If a swap cannot be completed, the XAUT 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.
