How the LTC → ZEC exchange runs

  1. Work out the amount in the calculator — orders start at 1.6064 LTC.
  2. Give a ZEC address on Zcash and a contact for the order.
  3. Send LTC on Litecoin, exactly the amount the order shows.
  4. Nothing else is needed from you: as soon as the network confirms the transfer, the robot sends Zcash to your address. The order page shows the status.

Swap LTC for ZEC

Check this before sending LTC

  • The address network is Zcash. Sending through another network almost always means losing the transfer.
  • The transfer must not be smaller than 1.6064 LTC.
  • Copy the address in full, then check its first and last characters once it is pasted.
  • Send exactly the amount stated in the order: the automation matches your payment against it, and any difference sends the order back for recalculation.

Common questions: LTC → ZEC

What rate does LTC to ZEC run at?
As of Nov 10, 2026 13:19 it is 1 LTC = 0.0450008 ZEC. The figure updates on its own, and the calculator always shows the current one. On the market that is around $51.92.
What amounts does LTC → ZEC accept?
From 1.6064 to 194,000 LTC per order. The floor is roughly $82.63.
Why can I not swap less than 1.6064 LTC?
The network fee and the handling do not depend on the amount. On a transfer below 1.6064 LTC they eat a noticeable share of it, and the swap stops making sense for either side.
Is anything charged on top of the rate?
No. The payout is already worked out at the rate in the calculator. Separately you pay only the network fee for sending LTC, and the blockchain takes that one.
How long does swapping LTC for ZEC take?
The clock starts with confirmations: as soon as Litecoin confirms your transfer, the order goes out for payout with no operator involved. After that the timing is set by how busy the network is — which is the difference between quick and instant. A block in Litecoin closes in about 2.5 min.
Which network will ZEC arrive in?
Zcash arrives in its own Zcash network — a plain ZEC address is all you need.
What happens if the rate moves while I am paying?
Nothing: the rate is locked in the order and holds for as long as the order is alive. It is recalculated only if the payment arrives late or for a different amount — so send the exact sum, and send it promptly.
What did the LTC to ZEC rate do over the month?
Over the month, minus 16.19%: a low of 0.0397619, a high of 0.0524501, an average of 0.0470168 ZEC per 1 LTC.
Can a LTC to ZEC swap be seen from the outside?
Public networks keep every transfer in the explorer, open to anyone. Privacy coins shut that down: Monero by default, Zcash and Dash when a shielded transfer is picked.
Can I swap back, ZEC for LTC?
Yes, the reverse is open too: 1 ZEC = 22.2214 LTC. The link to switch sits under the calculator.
