Three steps on ToSwap
-
Set the ETH amount and paste the Litecoin address that should collect payout on Litecoin mainnet.
-
Tap Exchange to lock the live ToSwap quote and reveal this order’s deposit details.
-
Send exactly that ETH amount to the deposit. After Base mainnet confirms, LTC is pushed to your wallet.
Before you broadcast
- Base confirmations are usually fast — often within a minute.
- Send ETH on Base mainnet only — not Ethereum L1, Optimism, or Arbitrum unless your order says otherwise.
- Use a Base-compatible wallet and address (0x…). Leave enough ETH on Base for gas on top of the swap amount.
- If LTC is late, refresh your wallet and re-check the order status. When a payout hash is already listed, email or SimpleX support with your Exchange ID — ToSwap has no login that can reopen expired pages.
ETH on Base — Coinbase L2
Native ETH on Base — Ethereum's value on Coinbase's L2 with low fees, fast finality, and growing on-chain activity.
ETH on Base mainnet
Use a Base wallet for deposits. Ethereum mainnet ETH is a different network — wrong-chain sends may not be credited.
Leave enough ETH on Base for gas in addition to the amount you swap.
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.
Deposit checklist
Chain mismatches and bad addresses are the usual failure modes — skim these notes before you fund the deposit.

FAQ for this route
Is KYC or a ToSwap account required for ETH → LTC?
No. ToSwap never opens a profile or asks for ID documents on a standard Ethereum (Base) to Litecoin order. You stay non-custodial on both legs.
How fast does LTC usually arrive?
Many payouts leave within minutes after the Base mainnet deposit confirms. Congestion on Base mainnet or Litecoin mainnet can stretch that — fees and mempools set the clock, not a manual review.
Does ToSwap hold my ETH or LTC?
No hosted balance. You broadcast ETH from a wallet you control; LTC is paid only to the address you paste. Nothing sits under a ToSwap username.
What if I send ETH on the wrong network?
Match Base mainnet exactly as printed on the order badge. A wrong-chain deposit often cannot be credited automatically — double-check before you broadcast.
