Swapping LTC to XMR moves value from Litecoin, a transparent public-ledger coin, into Monero, a privacy coin whose amounts, senders, and receivers are hidden on-chain. A no-KYC swap does this crypto-to-crypto without an account: you send LTC from your wallet, and XMR arrives at the Monero address you supply. GhostSwap routes this pair non-custodially, so your funds are never held.
TL;DR: You can swap LTC to XMR with no account and no KYC. Send Litecoin from your own wallet, receive Monero at your XMR address, floating-rate, typically in about 8 minutes.
A no-KYC swap is a crypto-to-crypto exchange that needs no signup, email, or identity verification. Unlike a centralised exchange, it never takes custody of your coins — the swap passes through wallet-to-wallet.
Why swap LTC to XMR
Litecoin and Monero solve different problems. Litecoin is fast and cheap to move, but its ledger is public: every LTC transaction, amount, and address is permanently visible to anyone. Monero (XMR) is a privacy coin — it obscures the sender, receiver, and amount of each transaction at the protocol level using ring signatures and stealth addresses.
Moving LTC into XMR converts a transparent balance into one that isn't linkable on a public explorer. That's the practical reason this pair exists as a route.
GhostSwap supports this swap with no account and no KYC. It is a non-custodial pass-through: your LTC and XMR are never held by GhostSwap. You supply a Monero receiving address and a Litecoin refund address, and the coins move between wallets.
How to swap LTC to XMR (step by step)
- Pick the pair — Open the swap widget and select LTC as the send coin and XMR as the receive coin. No account, no email, no KYC.
- Enter your Monero address — Paste the XMR address where you want to receive funds. Add a Litecoin refund address in case a deposit needs to be returned.
- Get your floating-rate quote — You'll see an estimate based on floating-rate pricing from aggregated liquidity across leading crypto markets.
- Send your LTC — Send Litecoin from your wallet to the one-time deposit address shown. GhostSwap detects the deposit on-chain.
- Receive XMR — Once your LTC deposit confirms, the swap executes and Monero lands at your address. Completion is typically around 8 minutes, though it varies with chain congestion.
You can start a LTC to XMR swap on the homepage widget — no sign-up step to clear first.

One thing worth flagging: floating rate means the exact XMR amount is set when your LTC deposit is detected on-chain, not when you click. During normal conditions the spread is small, but if LTC/XMR moves sharply while your deposit confirms, the output reflects that move. There is no fixed-rate lock before your funds arrive.
Where to receive your XMR
To hold Monero after the swap, use a dedicated XMR wallet. Cake Wallet, Feather, and Monerujo all generate a Monero address you can paste into the receive field. Download wallet software only from its official source — the canonical Monero client lives at getmonero.org.
The Litecoin side is simpler: any LTC wallet that lets you send to an arbitrary address works as the source of funds.
