Frequently asked questions
Do I need KYC to swap RUNE to TAO?
No. SendSwap is a non-custodial instant exchange — no account, no ID checks, and no KYC for THORChain to Bittensor swaps.
How long does RUNE to TAO take?
Most swaps finish in 1–5 minutes. Timing depends on THORChain mainnet and Bittensor mainnet confirmations and current network load.
Is RUNE to TAO non-custodial?
Yes. You send RUNE from your wallet and receive TAO directly to the address you provide — SendSwap never holds your keys.
What if I send RUNE on the wrong network?
Always match the network on your order page (THORChain mainnet for deposits). Wrong-network sends may not be credited — read our swap safety guides before you send.
