How the swap works
-
Type the USDT amount and paste your Litecoin payout address on Litecoin mainnet.
-
Press Exchange to open the live quote and the deposit address for this order.
-
Broadcast USDT to that deposit. After the required confirmations, LTC is sent to your wallet.
Check these before you send
- ERC-20 USDT follows Ethereum confirmation times.
- Send USDT on Ethereum mainnet only β not Tron TRC-20.
- Leave ETH in your wallet for gas when sending ERC-20 USDT.
- If LTC has not appeared yet, wait a few minutes and refresh the wallet. When the order already shows a payout tx, contact support with your order ID.
Tether β USD-pegged stablecoin
USDT on Ethereum (ERC-20) is widely used in DeFi β send only on Ethereum mainnet.
USDT on Ethereum mainnet
Use an ERC-20 compatible Ethereum address. TRC-20 USDT is a different asset.
Litecoin β 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 β 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
Does USDT to LTC require KYC or an account?
No. PeakSwap does not ask for a profile, ID documents, or a hosted balance for Tether to Litecoin.
How long until LTC arrives?
Many orders finish in a few minutes. ERC-20 on Ethereum deposit confirmations and Litecoin mainnet payout time set the wait.
Do you hold USDT or LTC for me?
No. You send USDT from a wallet you control and LTC is paid to the address you provide β PeakSwap does not keep a user wallet.
What if I send USDT on the wrong chain?
Use ERC-20 on Ethereum exactly as shown on the order. A wrong-network send may not be credited β read the swap safety notes first.
