Who takes the LTC → ETH route
- Fuel for EthereumWithout Ethereum nothing moves in Ethereum — every transfer and every contract call is paid in it.
- Different basketsDaily moves of LTC and ETH over 90 days line up at 0.74 (they travel together) — the looser the link, the less a portfolio depends on one coin.
- A road both waysThe ETH → LTC direction is open too, so going back into LTC takes the same route.

How the LTC → ETH order runs
- Work out the amount in the calculator: orders start at 1.7788 LTC.
- Enter a ETH address in Ethereum and a way to reach you.
- Send LTC in Litecoin for exactly the amount stated in the order.
- Once the network confirms your transfer, Ethereum leaves for your address. The order page tracks every step.
Check this before sending LTC
- The address network is Ethereum. Sending through another network usually means losing the transfer.
- The transfer must not be smaller than 1.7788 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 → ETH
What rate does LTC to ETH run at?
As of Sep 18, 2026 01:08 it is 1 LTC = 0.0221469 ETH. The figure recalculates on its own, and the calculator always shows the fresh one. In dollars that is around $54.28.
What amounts does LTC → ETH accept?
From 1.7788 to 187,000 LTC per order. The lower limit is roughly $95.13.
Where does the 1.7788 LTC floor come from?
Network fees and order handling eat a small transfer alive — below 1.7788 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 ETH 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 ETH arrive in?
Ethereum leaves in its own Ethereum network — a plain ETH address is all you need.
Where is receiving ETH cheaper?
The cheapest is usually ETH Arbitrum, ETH BEP20, ETH Optimism. Still, the network is chosen by what the recipient supports, not by the fee.
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 ETH rate do this month?
The month came in at minus 9.21%. Low 0.0196735, high 0.0232856, middle 0.0210893 ETH per LTC.
Can I go back, ETH to LTC?
Yes, the reverse direction is open: 1 ETH = 45.6534 LTC. The link sits right under the calculator.
