## FAQ

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

Most XRP to KAS swaps are paid out within 5–15 minutes: the XRP deposit needs a few seconds to confirm on XRP Ledger, then the KAS is sent to your wallet, and Kaspa confirms the payout in a few minutes. Busy networks can add a few minutes.

### How much is 1 XRP in KAS?

1 XRP is worth about 33.4876 KAS at the market rate, before fees (market prices, 9 Oct 2026). GhostSwap's quote in the exchange box already includes the service fee and the KAS network fee. The rate floats with the market until your XRP deposit confirms, so the exchange box shows the exact amount before you send.

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

No. GhostSwap has no accounts: you paste the Kaspa address that should receive the KAS, send XRP 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 XRP 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, the XRP Ledger network fee for your deposit is paid in XRP by your wallet.

### 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 XRP 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 XRP payment on XRPSCAN (https://xrpscan.com) and your incoming KAS on Kaspa Explorer (https://explorer.kaspa.org).

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

GhostSwap is non-custodial: there is no account balance holding your coins. Your XRP 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 XRP to KAS swap work?

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

### What happens if my XRP to KAS 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.
