Exchange in 3 steps
-
Set the XLM amount and paste your Litecoin payout address on Litecoin mainnet.
-
Create the order to lock the quote and see the deposit address.
-
Send XLM to that deposit. After confirmations, LTC is paid to your wallet.
Before you broadcast
- Stellar confirmations are typically very fast — often within seconds.
- A minimum XLM balance may be required to activate or maintain your Stellar account.
- Use a Stellar mainnet address (starts with G…). Include a memo if your receive wallet or exchange requires one.
- LTC not visible yet? Wait a few minutes, resync your wallet, then contact support with your order ID if the payout tx is already listed.
Stellar — fast payments network
XLM (Stellar Lumens) powers the Stellar network — built for low-cost cross-border transfers and tokenized assets.
Sending XLM on Stellar
Send native XLM on Stellar mainnet from a compatible wallet.
If your payout destination requires a memo, enter it exactly on your order form — missing memos are a common support issue.
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."
When will LTC arrive?
Usually within several blocks after your deposit confirms — often under 15 minutes in normal conditions.
LTC payout troubleshooting
- Verify your Litecoin address format matches what your wallet expects (Legacy, SegWit, or M-address).
- Check a Litecoin explorer with the payout tx hash from your order page.
- Resync your wallet if the transaction is confirmed on-chain but balance is unchanged.

Frequently asked questions
Is identity verification required to trade XLM for LTC?
No. HideSwap operates as an anonymous no-KYC crypto exchange — no profile, no ID upload, and no funded account for Stellar → Litecoin.
How long is a XLM → LTC order?
Typical completion is a few minutes. Stellar mainnet and Litecoin mainnet confirmation times set the pace.
Do you custody XLM or LTC?
No. You send XLM yourself and LTC is paid to the address you enter — HideSwap does not keep a wallet balance for you.
What if I pick the wrong XLM network?
Match the network printed on the order (Stellar mainnet). A mismatch can strand the deposit — check the swap safety notes first.
