## FAQ

### How long does it take to swap XTZ to BCH on GhostSwap?

Most XTZ to BCH swaps finish in 5–15 minutes. Your XTZ deposit needs a few minutes to confirm on Tezos; after that the BCH is sent to your wallet and Bitcoin Cash confirms it in about 10–20 minutes. Busy networks can add a few minutes.

### Do I need KYC or an account to exchange XTZ to BCH?

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

### What are the fees for converting Tezos to Bitcoin Cash?

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

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

To receive Bitcoin Cash from your swap, we recommend using Electron Cash, Bitcoin.com Wallet, or Trust Wallet. Make sure your wallet supports the Bitcoin Cash network before starting the exchange. Double-check your BCH address before confirming — cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### What format is the BCH address?

Use a Bitcoin Cash address: it starts with bitcoincash:q, q or 1. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand.

### Can I track my XTZ to BCH 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 XTZ payment on TzKT (https://tzkt.io) and your incoming BCH on Blockchair (https://blockchair.com/bitcoin-cash).

### Is it safe to exchange XTZ for BCH on GhostSwap?

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

### How does a cross-chain XTZ to BCH swap work?

Tezos lives on Tezos and Bitcoin Cash on Bitcoin Cash, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your XTZ on Tezos and pays native BCH on Bitcoin Cash, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees.

### What happens if my XTZ to BCH exchange fails?

If a swap cannot be completed, the XTZ is refunded to the Tezos 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.
