## Monero to Litecoin: spending XMR on a fast, low-fee chain

XMR to LTC suits Monero holders who need to pay a merchant or person who takes Litecoin but not Monero. Litecoin adds a block about every 2.5 minutes and its transfer fees are usually low, which makes it a practical coin to spend. Unlike Monero, an ordinary Litecoin payment shows its addresses and amount on public explorers such as Blockchair. The LTC goes straight to the Litecoin wallet you name, and no account is involved.

The slow step is the Monero deposit: the swap waits for about 10 confirmations, roughly 20 minutes, before the payout goes out. Litecoin then confirms the LTC within a few blocks, so most swaps finish in 20 to 60 minutes. Litecoin's optional private layer, MWEB, is not used for the payout, though you can move the coins into it later.

### Tips

- The payout needs a regular Litecoin address (ltc1, L or M), for example from Nexus Wallet, Exodus or a Ledger; MWEB addresses starting with ltcmweb1 are rejected.
- Send the XMR from your own wallet (Feather, Cake Wallet or Monero GUI) and give one of its addresses for refunds; Monero hides where a payment came from, so a refund can only go where you tell it.
- Monero locks the change from your deposit transaction for 10 blocks, so part of your wallet balance can show as locked for about 20 minutes after you send.

### Can I swap XMR to LTC without KYC?

Yes. A standard swap needs no account, email or ID. Paste your Litecoin address, check the floating rate shown before you send, then send the XMR from your own wallet; if the swap cannot complete, the refund goes to your Monero address.

### Can the LTC be paid straight into MWEB?

No. The payout goes to a standard Litecoin address. Cake Wallet on iOS or Android supports MWEB and can then move the LTC into it with a peg-in transaction that you sign yourself.

## FAQ

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

Most XMR to LTC swaps are paid out within 20–60 minutes: the XMR deposit needs about 20 minutes (10 confirmations) to confirm on Monero, then the LTC is sent to your wallet, and Litecoin confirms the payout in about 10 minutes (blocks every 2.5 minutes). Busy networks can add a few minutes.

### How much LTC do I get for 5 XMR?

At 8 Oct 2026, 06:45 UTC, 5 XMR swapped to about 42.7577 LTC on GhostSwap, after the service fee and the LTC network fee. The rate floats with the market, so the exchange box shows the exact live amount before you send.

### What are the fees for converting Monero to Litecoin?

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

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

To receive Litecoin from your swap, we recommend using Nexus Wallet, Exodus or a Ledger. Make sure your wallet supports the Litecoin network before starting the exchange. Double-check your LTC address before confirming, cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### What format is the LTC address?

Use a Litecoin address: it starts with ltc1, L or M. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand.

### Can I track my XMR to LTC 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 incoming LTC on Blockchair (https://blockchair.com/litecoin).

### Is it safe to exchange XMR for LTC on GhostSwap?

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

### Will my LTC be linked to my XMR?

Monero is private by default: ring signatures, stealth addresses and RingCT hide the sender, the receiver and the amount of every transaction. The source of your funds is already protected. The LTC you receive will appear as a fresh transaction on the Litecoin blockchain with no visible connection to your XMR holdings. GhostSwap requires no KYC, so there's no account linking the two.

### How does a cross-chain XMR to LTC swap work?

Monero lives on Monero and Litecoin on Litecoin, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your XMR on Monero and pays native LTC on Litecoin, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees.

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

If a swap cannot be completed, the XMR is refunded to the Monero 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.
