## FAQ

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

Most XRP to APE swaps finish in 5–15 minutes. Your XRP deposit needs a few seconds to confirm on XRP Ledger; after that the APE is sent to your wallet and Ethereum confirms it in about 2–5 minutes. Busy networks can add a few minutes.

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

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

### What are the fees for converting XRP to ApeCoin?

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

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

To receive ApeCoin from your swap, we recommend using MetaMask, Rabby, or a hardware wallet like Ledger. Make sure your wallet supports the Ethereum (ERC-20) network before starting the exchange. Double-check your APE address before confirming — cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### What format is the APE address?

Use a Ethereum address: it starts with 0x followed by 40 hexadecimal characters. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand. Sending APE to an address on another network can lose the coins.

### Can I track my XRP to APE 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 XRP payment on XRPScan (https://xrpscan.com) and your incoming APE on Etherscan (https://etherscan.io).

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

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

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

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

### What happens if my XRP to APE exchange fails?

If a swap cannot be completed, the XRP is refunded to the XRP Ledger 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.
