What are Litecoin and LTC?
Litecoin (LTC) is digital money built for instant, near-zero-cost payments worldwide. It uses peer-to-peer technology, meaning transactions and issuance are managed collectively by the network rather than a central authority.
Litecoin’s blockchain also uses more frequent block generation than Bitcoin.
How to buy Litecoin in the US
In the Crypto.com App, the basic flow is:
- Sign up and verify your identity. Download the Crypto.com App or register online, confirm your email and complete identity verification.
- Top up your account.
- Select Litecoin on the trading screen and complete your purchase.
Once funds are available, you can buy Litecoin and manage it in one place.
How can you fund a Litecoin purchase?
You can fund your account for a Litecoin purchase using bank transfers, including ACH or wire, debit or credit cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal or crypto deposited from another wallet.
If you deposit crypto from another wallet, make sure you’re sending a supported cryptocurrency to the correct address. Crypto transactions are irreversible, and trying to deposit a non-supported token may result in the loss of tokens.
What is the minimum Litecoin purchase?
The minimum amount required to buy Litecoin on Crypto.com is as little as US$1. This means you can buy a small fraction of Litecoin rather than needing to buy a whole coin.
