Before you swap LTC to ZEC
- Send LTC on Litecoin only — your deposit address is generated for Litecoin (starts with ltc1, L or M).
- Your wallet adds the Litecoin network fee on top of the amount you send, so keep a little extra LTC.
- Litecoin adds a block about every 150 seconds and your deposit is credited after 6 confirmations on Litecoin, so expect about 15 min to confirm on Litecoin + manual payout.
- Send between 0.1 and 5,000 LTC; the widget won’t create a swap outside this range.
- You need an address on Zcash to receive ZEC (transparent (t1…/t3…), shielded (z…) or unified (u…)).
Swapping the other way? Deposits of 0.1–1,000 ZEC are credited after 12 confirmations on Zcash: about 15 min to confirm on Zcash + manual payout. Use the ZEC to LTC exchange page.
Fees and exchange rate
ShadowSwap adds no spread or service fee: the LTC → ZEC rate is the ratio of their live USD prices. Your wallet pays the Litecoin fee for the deposit in LTC; the Zcash network fee for sending your ZEC is deducted from the payout. The ZEC amount is calculated when you create the swap and saved on your order. See how ShadowSwap fees work.
FAQ: LTC to ZEC
About 15 min to confirm on Litecoin + manual payout. Your LTC deposit is credited after 6 confirmations on Litecoin, where a block is added about every 150 seconds; payouts are not automatic, so the ShadowSwap team then sends your ZEC on Zcash.
On this page, ZEC is sent on Zcash. You need an address on Zcash to receive it — transparent (t1…/t3…), shielded (z…) or unified (u…).
ShadowSwap does: your LTC goes to a one-time Litecoin deposit address that ShadowSwap controls until the team sends your ZEC. Check the address, network and amount before you send.
