Three steps on Web3Swap
-
Enter the LTC size and paste the Cardano payout address for Cardano mainnet on this Web3Swap ticket.
-
Confirm Exchange to lock the live Web3Swap quote and reveal this ticket’s deposit details.
-
Broadcast exactly that LTC amount to the deposit. After Litecoin mainnet confirms, ADA is paid to your wallet.
Before you broadcast
- Litecoin typically needs a few confirmations before the swap continues.
- Blocks target 2.5 minutes — still subject to mempool delays.
- Use a standard Litecoin mainnet address (Legacy, SegWit, or M-address formats supported on most routes).
- If ADA is late, refresh your wallet and re-check the ticket. When a payout hash is already listed, email or SimpleX support with your Exchange ID — Web3Swap has no login that lists expired orders.
Litecoin on Web3Swap — fast UTXO sends
LTC is a UTXO cousin of Bitcoin with quicker blocks and lighter fees. Web3Swap tickets treat it as a wallet-to-wallet rail — confirm the address format before you broadcast.
The speed and fees of the Litecoin blockchain
When you fund a swap with LTC, ~2.5-minute blocks help deposits confirm sooner than on many busier chains.
Typical fees stay low — about 0.0004 LTC (~$0.02 at current prices). Leave a little extra for the miner fee so the full amount you intend to send reaches the deposit address.
Litecoin address formats
If a send fails, your wallet may be using an unsupported address type for this route.
Contact support with your order ID before retrying on a different format.
Cardano tickets — ADA address format
ADA is Cardano’s native proof-of-stake asset. On Web3Swap, paste a mainnet address your wallet owns and broadcast only ADA — wrong-network sends will not credit the ticket.
ADA payout delays
Resync your Cardano wallet if the order shows a sent transaction but balance is unchanged.
When will ADA arrive?
Cardano block times are around 20 seconds — payouts typically follow within several blocks.
- Use a Shelley-era Cardano address compatible with your wallet.
- Check a Cardano explorer with the payout tx hash from your order page.
- Allow a few extra minutes if your wallet is still syncing the latest epoch.
Deposit checklist
Chain mismatches and bad addresses are the usual failure modes — skim these notes before you fund the deposit.

More anonymous no-KYC lanes and chain notes for each coin.
FAQ for this route
Do I need KYC or a Web3Swap login for LTC → ADA?
No. A standard Litecoin → Cardano ticket on Web3Swap skips signup and ID upload. You stay self-custodial on both legs.
How soon does ADA usually arrive?
After the Litecoin mainnet deposit is final, many payouts leave within minutes. Congestion on Litecoin mainnet or Cardano mainnet can stretch that — mempools and fees set the clock, not a compliance hold.
Does Web3Swap custody my LTC or ADA?
No. You broadcast LTC from a wallet you control; ADA pays only to the address you paste. Nothing sits as a named Web3Swap balance.
What if I send LTC on the wrong rail?
Match Litecoin mainnet exactly as printed on the Web3Swap ticket badge. A wrong-chain deposit often cannot be credited automatically — verify before you broadcast.
