    Exchange in 3 steps

    1. Choose how much LTC to send and enter your Zcash address on Zcash mainnet.

    2. Hit Exchange to open your order page with the live rate and deposit details.

    3. Transfer LTC to the address on your order — after confirmations, ZEC is sent to your wallet automatically.

    What do you need to know?

    • Litecoin typically needs a few confirmations before the swap continues.
    • Blocks target 2.5 minutes — still subject to mempool delays.
    • Use a standard Litecoin mainnet address (Legacy, SegWit, or M-address formats supported on most routes).
    • ZEC not visible yet? Wait a few minutes, resync your wallet, then contact support with your order ID if the payout tx is already listed.

    Litecoin — Bitcoin's first fork

    Litecoin (LTC) is a 2011 Bitcoin fork created by Charlie Lee, with early input from other developers including a former Google engineer. It keeps peer-to-peer transfers but targets faster blocks and lower everyday fees. Traders often call it "digital silver."

    The speed and fees of the Litecoin blockchain

    When you fund a swap with LTC, ~2.5-minute blocks help deposits confirm sooner than on many busier chains.

    Typical fees stay low — about 0.0004 LTC (~$0.02 at current prices). Leave a little extra for the miner fee so the full amount you intend to send reaches the deposit address.

    Litecoin address formats

    If a send fails, your wallet may be using an unsupported address type for this route.

    Contact support with your order ID before retrying on a different format.

    Zcash — optional shielded privacy

    ZEC supports transparent and shielded addresses — pick the receive format your wallet actually supports.

    Confirm address type matches your wallet. Rescan the blockchain in your Zcash client if needed.

    Transparent vs shielded payouts

    Zcash supports both transparent (t-) and shielded (z-) addresses — they are not interchangeable.

    • Use the address type your wallet actually supports before placing the order.
    • Shielded payouts may take longer to appear depending on wallet software.
    • If the order shows a sent tx but balance is zero, rescan the chain in your Zcash client first.
