## Swapping Litecoin for DRIFT on Solana

DRIFT is an SPL token on Solana. It launched in 2024 as the governance token of Drift Protocol, a Solana perpetuals exchange that renamed itself Velocity in July 2026. LTC to DRIFT lets Litecoin holders get the token in one step, without buying SOL first or opening an exchange account. The DRIFT is paid to the Solana address you enter.

Litecoin is the slow side of this pair. Its blocks come about every 2.5 minutes and the deposit needs roughly 10 minutes to confirm, so most swaps finish in 15 to 35 minutes, while Solana settles the DRIFT payout in seconds. A normal Litecoin wallet fee is enough to get the deposit into the next few blocks.

### Tips

- Paste a Solana address from Phantom or Solflare: 32 to 44 base58 characters with no 0x. A Litecoin address cannot hold DRIFT.
- Send LTC from your own wallet and enter a regular Litecoin address (ltc1, L or M) as the refund address.
- Once the payout arrives, open the token in your wallet or on Solscan and check that its mint begins with DriFtup. Other tokens named DRIFT are different assets.

### Can I swap LTC for DRIFT without KYC?

Yes. Standard swaps ask for no account, email or ID. Paste your Solana address, add your Litecoin refund address and send the LTC.

### Do I need SOL in my wallet to receive DRIFT?

No, the payout arrives without it. You will need a small amount of SOL for the fee when you later send or trade the DRIFT.

## FAQ

### How long does it take to swap LTC to DRIFT on GhostSwap?

Most LTC to DRIFT swaps are paid out within 15–35 minutes: the LTC deposit needs about 10 minutes (blocks every 2.5 minutes) to confirm on Litecoin, then the DRIFT is sent to your wallet, and Solana confirms the payout in under a minute.

### How much is 1 LTC in DRIFT?

At 12 Oct 2026, 13:25 UTC, 1 LTC swapped to about 3,533.79 DRIFT on GhostSwap, after the service fee. The minimum for this pair is about 0.47 LTC. The Litecoin network fee for sending the LTC is paid separately, in LTC. The rate floats with the market until your LTC deposit confirms.

### Can I send LTC straight to my DRIFT address?

No. LTC moves on Litecoin and DRIFT on Solana, so LTC can only be sent to a Litecoin address. To swap, send the LTC to the one-time deposit address GhostSwap shows, and the DRIFT is paid to the Solana address you enter, with no bridge or wrapped token.

### What wallet and address do I need to receive DRIFT?

Use a Solana address from a wallet you control, such as Phantom, Solflare or a Ledger. The address is 32–44 letters and numbers with no 0x prefix. Sending DRIFT to an address on another network can lose the coins. GhostSwap never holds your funds: the DRIFT is sent straight to the address you enter.

### What happens if my LTC to DRIFT exchange fails?

If a swap cannot be completed, the LTC is refunded to the Litecoin address you entered as the sender address.
