NETWORK-AWARE SWAP GUIDE
Exchange ETH to LTC with Guarda
Quick answer: enter the ETH amount, compare the provider's final LTC quote, send only on Ethereum, and verify that the receiving address supports Litecoin. Your recovery phrase is never an exchange input.
The live calculation uses CoinGecko spot-market references and is not an executable offer. The selected provider determines the spread, minimum, maximum, compliance checks and confirmation threshold.
Before swapping ETH to LTC
Check the sending side
Confirm that both the provider and your wallet use Ethereum mainnet. Assets sent over an unsupported network may not appear without a manual recovery process.
Check the receiving side
Use the Litecoin network and a valid LTC address. Do not send LTC to a Bitcoin address despite similarities between the networks.
Allow for settlement
Ethereum settlement depends on gas conditions and provider confirmation rules. Litecoin uses shorter block intervals than Bitcoin, while providers may require several confirmations.
What changes the ETH to LTC result?
The reference rate moves with both Ethereum and Litecoin. The amount delivered can also change because of the provider spread, liquidity, the Ethereum sending fee, the Litecoin receiving conditions and price movement before the order is locked.
ETH risk: Ethereum gas fees change with network demand. Token approvals and smart-contract interactions introduce risks beyond a simple ETH transfer.
LTC risk: LTC is volatile, and transaction fees and confirmation times vary with network conditions.

ETH to LTC — FAQ
Ethereum settlement depends on gas conditions and provider confirmation rules. The receiving Litecoin must then reach the confirmation threshold shown by the provider, so there is no guaranteed fixed duration.
A self-custody wallet does not require a custodial exchange account. The integrated exchange provider can still request checks when required by risk controls or local rules.
Compare the provider spread, the sending-network fee and any receiving-network cost shown in the binding quote. The CoinGecko calculation on this page is only a market reference.
Send native ETH on Ethereum and confirm that the destination accepts native LTC on Litecoin. Never choose a network only because the ticker looks familiar.
The exchange provider should issue an order or transaction identifier. Keep it until the LTC transfer reaches your wallet and verify the result on the appropriate block explorer.
