## FAQ

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

Most XMR to AVAX swaps are paid out within 20–60 minutes: the XMR deposit needs about 20 minutes (10 confirmations) to confirm on Monero, then the AVAX is sent to your wallet, and Avalanche X-Chain confirms the payout in a few seconds. Busy networks can add a few minutes.

### How much AVAX do I get for 5 XMR?

At 11 Oct 2026, 19:43 UTC, 5 XMR swapped to about 245.9883 AVAX on GhostSwap, after the service fee and the AVAX network fee. The rate floats with the market, so the exchange box shows the exact live amount before you send.

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

No. GhostSwap has no accounts: you paste the Avalanche X-Chain address that should receive the AVAX, send XMR from your own wallet, and the AVAX goes straight to that address. No email, phone number or ID upload.

### What are the fees for converting Monero to Avalanche?

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

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

To receive Avalanche from your swap, we recommend using Core (copy its X-Chain address). For AVAX in MetaMask or another 0x wallet, pick AVAX C-Chain instead. Make sure your wallet supports the Avalanche X-Chain network before starting the exchange. Double-check your AVAX address before confirming, cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### What format is the AVAX address?

Use an Avalanche X-Chain address: it starts with X-avax1 (an X-Chain address; 0x C-Chain addresses are not accepted). Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand.

### Can I track my XMR to AVAX 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 incoming AVAX on Avascan (https://avascan.info).

### Is it safe to exchange XMR for AVAX on GhostSwap?

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

### Will my AVAX be linked to my XMR?

Monero is private by default: ring signatures, stealth addresses and RingCT hide the sender, the receiver and the amount of every transaction. The source of your funds is already protected. The AVAX you receive will appear as a fresh transaction on the Avalanche X-Chain blockchain with no visible connection to your XMR holdings. GhostSwap requires no KYC, so there's no account linking the two.

### How does a cross-chain XMR to AVAX swap work?

Monero lives on Monero and Avalanche on Avalanche X-Chain, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your XMR on Monero and pays native AVAX on Avalanche X-Chain, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees.

### What happens if my XMR to AVAX exchange fails?

If a swap cannot be completed, the XMR is refunded to the Monero 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.
