## FAQ

### How long does it take to swap ZEC to FLIP on GhostSwap?

Most ZEC to FLIP swaps finish in 20–60 minutes. Your ZEC deposit needs about 10–20 minutes to confirm on Zcash; after that the FLIP is sent to your wallet and Ethereum confirms it in about 2–5 minutes. Busy networks can add a few minutes.

### How much FLIP do I get for 1 ZEC?

At 2 Oct 2026, 13:45 UTC, 1 ZEC swapped to about 4,314.73 FLIP on GhostSwap, after the service fee and the FLIP 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 ZEC to FLIP?

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

### What are the fees for converting Zcash to Chainflip?

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

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

To receive Chainflip 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 FLIP address before confirming — cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### What format is the FLIP 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 FLIP to an address on another network can lose the coins.

### Can I track my ZEC to FLIP 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 ZEC payment on Blockchair (https://blockchair.com/zcash) and your incoming FLIP on Etherscan (https://etherscan.io).

### Is it safe to exchange ZEC for FLIP on GhostSwap?

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

### Will my FLIP be linked to my ZEC?

Since Zcash is optional — supports both transparent (public) and shielded (fully private) transactions via zk-SNARKs, the source of your funds is already protected. The FLIP you receive will appear as a fresh transaction on the Ethereum (ERC-20) blockchain with no visible connection to your ZEC holdings. GhostSwap requires no KYC, so there's no account linking the two.

### How does a cross-chain ZEC to FLIP swap work?

Zcash lives on Zcash and Chainflip on Ethereum, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your ZEC on Zcash and pays native FLIP on Ethereum, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees.

### What happens if my ZEC to FLIP exchange fails?

If a swap cannot be completed, the ZEC is refunded to the Zcash 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.
