Swap LTC for BTC

Check this before sending LTC

  • The address network is Bitcoin. Sending through another network usually means losing the transfer.
  • The transfer must not be smaller than 87 LTC.
  • Copy the address whole, then compare the first and last characters after pasting.
  • Coins go through an AML check: a flagged transfer can be held until the check is finished.

Common questions: LTC → BTC

What rate does LTC to BTC run at?
As of Sep 17, 2026 23:13 it is 1 LTC = 0.000707704 BTC. The figure recalculates on its own, and the calculator always shows the fresh one. In dollars that is around $54.15.
What amounts does LTC → BTC accept?
From 87 to 187,000 LTC per order. The lower limit is roughly $4,652.76.
Where does the 87 LTC floor come from?
Network fees and order handling eat a small transfer alive — below 87 LTC the swap stops making sense for either side.
What else is taken on top of the rate?
The payout is already calculated at the rate in the calculator. On top of it you only pay the network fee for sending LTC, and that one goes to the blockchain, not to us.
How long does LTC to BTC take?
The clock starts with confirmations: the order goes into work once Litecoin confirms your transfer. After that it comes down to how busy the network is. A block in Litecoin closes in about 2.5 min.
Which network will BTC arrive in?
Bitcoin leaves in its own Bitcoin network — a plain BTC address is all you need.
What if the rate moves while I am paying?
The rate is pinned to the order and does not move while the order is alive. It can be recalculated if the payment arrives late or for a different amount — so send the exact sum, and send it promptly.
What did the LTC to BTC rate do this month?
The month came in at minus 1.16%. Low 0.000616608, high 0.000699877, middle 0.000663864 BTC per LTC.
Can I go back, BTC to LTC?
