USDT ERC20 → LTC: swap details at ROVEN exchange
If you hold USDT ERC20 and want Litecoin, you don’t need an exchange account. At ROVEN exchange the swap takes a few minutes: you see the final amount in advance, and an operator checks every order by hand.
USDT ERC20 is the Tether stablecoin on Ethereum, accepted by virtually every exchange and DeFi service. Litecoin (LTC) is one of the oldest Bitcoin forks, with blocks four times faster and low fees.
Why swap USDT ERC20 for LTC
A stablecoin is a handy way to hold dollars, but to benefit from market growth or use the Litecoin network you need LTC itself. Litecoin was built for fast, cheap transfers, which makes it handy for payments.
Networks and addresses
| You send USDT ERC20 | You receive LTC | |
|---|---|---|
| Network | Ethereum (ERC20) | Litecoin |
| Address | “0x” + 40 characters | “ltc1…”, “L…” or “M…” |
| Network speed | a block comes every 12 seconds | a block comes roughly every 2.5 minutes |
| Memo / tag | Not needed | Not needed |
What to watch out for
- Send USDT on Ethereum (ERC20), not BEP20 or Polygon — their addresses look the same.
- A Litecoin address starts with “ltc1”, “L” or “M”; it’s best to avoid legacy “3…” addresses.
- To send USDT your wallet needs some ETH to pay the network fee.
- Send the exact amount from the order and do it within 30 minutes, while the locked rate is valid.
How long the swap takes
Swap speed depends on both networks. On Ethereum (ERC20), a block comes every 12 seconds; on Litecoin, a block comes roughly every 2.5 minutes. The whole USDT ERC20 to LTC swap usually takes 5 to 30 minutes once your transfer is confirmed.
The current rate is 1 USDT = 0.01900452 LTC and the minimum amount is 50 USDT. Create an order in the form above, and ROVEN exchange will send swap updates by email or Telegram.
