## FAQ

### How long does it take to swap XLM to MEW on GhostSwap?

Most XLM to MEW swaps are paid out within 5–15 minutes: the XLM deposit needs a few seconds to confirm on Stellar, then the MEW 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 XLM to MEW?

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

### What are the fees for converting Stellar to cat in a dogs world?

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

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

To receive cat in a dogs world 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 MEW address before confirming, cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### What format is the MEW 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 MEW to an address on another network can lose the coins.

### Can I track my XLM to MEW 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 XLM payment on StellarExpert (https://stellar.expert) and your incoming MEW on Solscan (https://solscan.io).

### Is it safe to exchange XLM for MEW on GhostSwap?

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

### How does a cross-chain XLM to MEW swap work?

Stellar lives on Stellar and cat in a dogs world on Solana, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your XLM on Stellar and pays native MEW on Solana, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees.

### What happens if my XLM to MEW exchange fails?

If a swap cannot be completed, the XLM is refunded to the Stellar 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.
