How do I exchange LTC to XMR?
Pick LTC and XMR
Pick LTC in “You send” and XMR in “You get”, then enter the amount. The box shows how much XMR you get after all fees, and the minimum for this pair.
Paste your Monero address
Paste the Monero address that should receive the XMR: it is 95 characters and starts with 4 (standard) or 8 (subaddress). Wallets that work: Feather, Cake Wallet or Monero GUI. Then enter the Litecoin address you send LTC from; a refund, if ever needed, goes there.
Send LTC on Litecoin
Send exactly the amount shown from your own Litecoin wallet to the one-time deposit address, on the Litecoin network.
Receive XMR
Your XMR is paid out once your LTC deposit confirms, and Monero then confirms it in about 20 minutes (10 confirmations). Most swaps finish within minutes. The exact time depends on how fast each network confirms your deposit. Follow each step on the status page with your swap ID.
Litecoin's 2.5-minute blocks and your deposit
Litecoin works much like Bitcoin but produces a block about every 2.5 minutes, four times as often. Your deposit is usually confirmed in about 10 minutes, after which most swaps finish within minutes. You can follow the LTC transaction on Blockchair by pasting its transaction ID.
The network fee is set by your wallet and paid in LTC, separately from the quote. Like Bitcoin, Litecoin charges by transaction size rather than by amount, but its fees are usually low, so even modest swaps lose little to them. Nexus Wallet, Exodus and Ledger Live pick a reasonable fee automatically.
Send the exact amount the box shows, in a single transaction. A wallet that splits the payment into two transfers, or a second top-up sent later, creates separate deposits that do not match the quote.
Send from a regular Litecoin address, not MWEB
Litecoin has an optional privacy layer called MWEB, with its own addresses that start with ltcmweb1. Coins held there are not sent the same way as ordinary LTC. For this swap, send from an ordinary ltc1, L or M address, and enter that same address as the sender address.
If your LTC sits in an MWEB balance, for example in Cake Wallet, move it back to a regular address in your own wallet first, then start the swap from there. The sender address also receives any refund, so it has to be one that can take an ordinary Litecoin payment.
In multi-coin apps, make sure you copy the sender address from the Litecoin account. An ltc1 address is the Litecoin counterpart of a Bitcoin bc1 address, and the two are easy to confuse at a glance.
Litecoin or Bitcoin as the way into Monero
| LTC to XMR | BTC to XMR | |
|---|---|---|
| Block interval | About 2.5 minutes | About 10 minutes |
| Deposit confirmation | About 10 minutes | One to three blocks |
| Network fee | Usually low | Varies with how busy the mempool is |
| Sender address | ltc1, L or M | bc1, 3 or 1 |
If you hold both coins, Litecoin is often the quicker and cheaper way to reach XMR, especially for smaller amounts where a Bitcoin fee would take a noticeable share. The Monero side is identical either way. For the Bitcoin route, see BTC to XMR.
Litecoin's faster blocks shorten only the deposit side. The payout to your Monero wallet and the 10-block lock that follows work the same whichever coin you start from, so the total time to spendable XMR is closer between the two routes than the block interval suggests.
Where the XMR is paid
The payout goes to the Monero address you paste, and only a Monero wallet can receive it. Litecoin wallets such as Nexus or Ledger Live do not handle XMR, so use a Monero wallet such as Feather, Cake Wallet or Monero GUI, which gives you the seed and the subaddresses directly.
Monero addresses are 95 characters long. The main address of a wallet starts with 4, and each subaddress starts with 8. A fresh subaddress for this swap means the XMR does not arrive at an address you have shared with anyone else. Copy it with the wallet's copy button and compare the first and last characters after pasting.
When the payout arrives, the wallet lists it as locked. Monero applies a 10-block wait, roughly 20 minutes, to every incoming output, and the coins unlock by themselves. If nothing appears, let the wallet finish syncing, and check that its restore height is earlier than the day of the swap.
Refunds and checking a stuck swap
If a swap cannot be completed, the LTC is refunded to the sender address you entered. That is the reason to send from a wallet where you hold the keys. An exchange account has a deposit address that changes or is shared, and a refund sent there may never be matched to you.
The status page for your swap ID shows each step. Look up the LTC transaction on Blockchair first: if it is still unconfirmed, the swap is simply waiting for the Litecoin network. If it has confirmed and the status page shows no progress for a long while, email support@ghostswap.io with the swap ID and the Litecoin transaction ID. Please don't send the LTC again while you wait for a reply.
Why Litecoin holders swap to Monero
Ordinary Litecoin transactions are as public as Bitcoin ones: addresses, amounts and the links between them can be read on any explorer. MWEB adds privacy only for coins moved into it, and many wallets and services do not support it. Monero makes every transfer private by default, with no opt-in step.
Litecoin is also common where payments are small and frequent, such as payment processors, tips and mining payouts. Swapping that LTC into XMR turns a stream of traceable small payments into a balance that nobody can read from the outside. Is Monero traceable? explains the limits of that privacy.
Some holders keep LTC for paying and XMR for saving. Swapping between the two whenever the balance builds up keeps the public Litecoin wallet small while the rest sits where outsiders cannot read it.
Common mistakes with LTC to XMR
- Sending from an MWEB balance or entering an ltcmweb1 address as the sender address.
- Using an exchange account to send the LTC, so a refund has no address of yours to go to.
- Splitting the deposit into two Litecoin transactions instead of one for the quoted amount.
- Pasting a Litecoin address into the Monero field, or typing the 95-character XMR address by hand.
- Topping up with more LTC while the first deposit still has unconfirmed blocks to go.
