Most XRP to TAO swaps are paid out within 5–15 minutes: the XRP deposit needs a few seconds to confirm on XRP Ledger, then the TAO is sent to your wallet, and Bittensor confirms the payout in a few minutes. Busy networks can add a few minutes. ### How much is 1 XRP in TAO? 1 XRP is worth about 0.004803 TAO at the market rate, before fees (market prices, 12 Oct 2026). GhostSwap's quote in the exchange box already includes the service fee and the TAO 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 TAO? No. GhostSwap has no accounts: you paste the Bittensor address that should receive the TAO, send XRP from your own wallet, and the TAO goes straight to that address. No email, phone number or ID upload. ### What are the fees for converting XRP to Bittensor? The GhostSwap fee is already included in the rate in the exchange box, so the TAO 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 TAO? To receive Bittensor from your swap, we recommend using Talisman or Nova Wallet. Make sure your wallet supports the Bittensor network before starting the exchange. Double-check your TAO address before confirming, cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed. ### What format is the TAO address? Use a Bittensor address: it starts with 5 (SS58 format). Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand. ### Can I track my XRP to TAO swap? Yes. After initiating your swap, GhostSwap provides a transaction status page where you can monitor progress in real-time.

GhostSwap is non-custodial: there is no account balance holding your coins. Your XRP deposit is converted and the TAO is sent straight to the Bittensor address you enter, so check that address twice, Bittensor transfers cannot be reversed. ### How does a cross-chain XRP to TAO swap work? XRP lives on XRP Ledger and Bittensor on Bittensor, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your XRP on XRP Ledger and pays native TAO on Bittensor, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees. ### What happens if my XRP to TAO 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. ## Related - [Reverse: TAO to XRP](https://ghostswap.io/exchange/tao-xrp/) ([Markdown](https://ghostswap.io/exchange/tao-xrp.md)) - [All GhostSwap pairs](https://ghostswap.io/exchange/) - [How to exchange](https://ghostswap.io/how-to-exchange/) - [Site guide for AI assistants](https://ghostswap.io/llms.txt)
