## FAQ

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

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

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

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

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

The GhostSwap fee is already included in the rate in the exchange box, so the XRP 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 XRP?

To receive XRP from your swap, we recommend using Xaman (formerly Xumm), Trust Wallet, or a Ledger hardware wallet. A new XRP address only becomes active once it holds the small network reserve (1 XRP since December 2024). Make sure your wallet supports the XRP Ledger network before starting the exchange. Double-check your XRP address before confirming — cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### What format is the XRP address?

Use a XRP Ledger address: it starts with r. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand.

### Do I need a Destination Tag to receive XRP?

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

### Can I track my XAUT to XRP 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 XRP on XRPScan (https://xrpscan.com).

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

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

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

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

### What happens if my XAUT to XRP 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.
