Tunnel in 3 steps
-
Choose how much LTC to send and paste the Solana address that should receive funds on Solana mainnet.
-
Open the order to freeze the quote and reveal a one-time deposit destination.
-
Broadcast LTC to that destination. Once confirmations clear, SOL is pushed to your payout 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).
- Still waiting on SOL? Give the wallet a few minutes to sync, then share your Exchange ID with support if the order already lists a payout hash.
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."
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.
Solana — high-speed layer-1
SOL is the native token of Solana — built for fast, low-cost transfers and a large ecosystem of on-chain apps.
SOL not showing in my wallet?
Refresh or resync your Solana wallet. If the order shows a sent tx, verify the address matches exactly.
How fast is the SOL payout?
Solana settlements are typically very quick once your deposit confirms.
- Most SOL payouts land within minutes — often faster than Bitcoin or Ethereum routes.
- Check the order page for a payout signature before contacting support.
- Keep a small SOL balance in your wallet for future transaction fees.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need KYC to swap LTC for SOL on TunnelSwap?
No. TunnelSwap is an anonymous no-KYC, privacy-first exchange. There is no account, no ID upload, and no standing balance for Litecoin → Solana swaps.
How fast is a LTC → SOL swap?
Most routes settle within minutes. Final timing follows Litecoin mainnet deposit confirmations and Solana mainnet payout speed.
Does TunnelSwap hold my LTC or SOL?
No. You fund the deposit from your wallet and SOL is sent straight to the address you paste — non-custodial, wallet to wallet.
What if I use the wrong network for LTC?
Only send on the network shown for the order (Litecoin mainnet). Wrong-chain deposits can be unrecoverable — review the safety guides before you broadcast.
