Swapping Litecoin for Tron: what you need to know
Exchanging LTC for TRX is useful when you rebalance a portfolio or want to move from one network to another without buying stablecoins in between. At ROVEN exchange the coins are swapped directly, and the rate is locked when you create the order.
Litecoin (LTC) is one of the oldest Bitcoin forks, with blocks four times faster and low fees. Tron (TRX) is the coin of the Tron network, which carries most of the world’s USDT transfers.

Networks and addresses
| You send LTC | You receive TRX | |
|---|---|---|

| Network speed | a block comes roughly every 2.5 minutes | a block comes every 3 seconds |

What to watch out for
- Send LTC on the Litecoin network only and allow time for confirmations.
- TRX arrives at a “T…” address; the same coins later pay the fees for USDT TRC20.
- The rate is locked for 30 minutes: send LTC within that time and you’ll receive exactly the amount shown in the order.
How long the swap takes
