LTC → XTZ: swap details at ROVEN exchange
Exchanging LTC for XTZ 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. Tezos (XTZ) is a smart contract blockchain that upgrades through holder votes, without hard forks.

Shifting between LTC and XTZ is a normal part of managing a portfolio: you change your exposure without cashing out to fiat. With XTZ you get access to the apps, staking and tokens of the Tezos network.
Networks and addresses
| You send LTC | You receive XTZ | |

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

What to watch out for
