What is Litecoin (LTC)?

Launched in 2011 as a fork of Bitcoin, Litecoin was designed as the "silver to Bitcoin's gold": the same proof-of-work foundation with blocks four times faster and lower fees, well suited to small, frequent transfers. With an 84 million coin cap and more than a decade of continuous operation, LTC is one of the longest-running cryptocurrencies. At XBTFX, LTC is both a deposit asset and an MT5 account currency.

LTC account currency

Trade Forex with Litecoin as your settlement currency

Open an MT5 account in LTC and every position you take, from EUR/USD and XAU/USD to the Nasdaq 100, share CFDs and other crypto CFDs, settles its P&L in LTC. Your balance stays in LTC, and you can offset LTC exposure with a short LTC/USD CFD on the same account.

  • Stack in LTC, not dollars

    Your equity grows or shrinks in LTC. LTC is your benchmark; fiat is one of the things you trade against.

  • No conversion on the way in or out

    Deposit LTC, trade in LTC and withdraw LTC, with no forced USD conversion when you fund or withdraw.

  • Battle-tested proof of work

    The same Bitcoin-style proof-of-work security with faster blocks, and more than a decade of continuous uptime.
