## FAQ

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

Most ZEC to TIA swaps are paid out within 20–60 minutes: the ZEC deposit needs about 10–20 minutes to confirm on Zcash, then the TIA is sent to your wallet, and Celestia confirms the payout in under a minute. Busy networks can add a few minutes.

### How much is 1 ZEC in TIA?

At 4 Oct 2026, 06:20 UTC, 1 ZEC swapped to about 2,705.99 TIA on GhostSwap, after the service fee. The minimum for this pair is about 0.023 ZEC. The rate floats with the market until your ZEC deposit confirms, so the exchange box shows the exact amount before you send.

### Do I need KYC or an account to exchange ZEC to TIA?

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

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

The GhostSwap fee is already included in the rate in the exchange box, so the TIA 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 TIA?

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

### What format is the TIA address?

Use a Celestia address: it starts with celestia1. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand.

### Do I need an Extra ID to receive TIA?

Only if the TIA goes to an exchange or custodial account that gave you an Extra ID; enter it in the field shown in the exchange box. A personal TIA wallet does not need one.

### Can I track my ZEC to TIA 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 TIA on Mintscan (https://www.mintscan.io/celestia).

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

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

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

Zcash privacy is optional: it supports both transparent (public) and shielded (fully private) transactions via zk-SNARKs. Coins sent from a private balance keep their history out of public view. The TIA you receive will appear as a fresh transaction on the Celestia 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 TIA swap work?

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

### Is it legal to own and swap Zcash?

In most countries, yes: owning and swapping Zcash is not banned, although some centralized exchanges have stopped listing privacy coins in certain regions. Privacy is a legitimate need, and using privacy-enhancing tools is not illegal in itself. You are responsible for following the cryptocurrency rules where you live.

### What happens if my ZEC to TIA 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.
