Litecoin for casino deposits: fees and confirmation time
Litecoin fees barely register, a typical transaction in our sample of 1,000 paid about $0.00032. How long you wait depends on the confirmations your casino asks for. Blocks average 2.5 minutes but arrive unevenly, and six confirmations took anywhere from about ten to over twenty minutes in the 600 blocks we checked.

What 1,000 transactions paid
| Share of transactions | Paid at most | In LTC | Fee rate |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 in 10 | $0.000071 | 0.00000141 | 1 litoshi/vB |
| Half | $0.00032 | 0.0000064 | 3 litoshi/vB |
| 9 in 10 | $0.0019 | 0.0000375 | 12.6 litoshi/vB |

Own sample, Blockchair transactions endpoint. 992 paid a fee, 3 were fee-free MWEB bookkeeping transactions, 5 were miner rewards. 1 LTC = 100,000,000 litoshi. Converted at $50.16.
Wallets set Litecoin fees all over the place. The cheapest tenth of that sample paid 1 litoshi per vbyte, the top one percent around 100, and still almost nobody paid more than two cents. Whatever your wallet pre-fills is fine. If it offers a custom fee, there's no reason to raise it for a casino deposit, since blocks were never full that evening.
The amount sent makes no difference to the fee. A typical transaction in the sample moved about $110 and paid a fee of roughly a quarter of a thousandth of a percent. At a casino the bigger cost is usually its own LTC withdrawal fee or minimum, which you'll find in the cashier.
Confirmations in minutes
| Confirmations | Typical wait (median) | Slow case (9 in 10 faster) |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 1.7 min | 6.1 min |
| 3 | 6.7 min | 13.5 min |
| 6 | 14.4 min | 22.8 min |
| 12 | 30.2 min | 39.1 min |
Measured over every run of 1, 3, 6 and 12 consecutive blocks in the sample, using block timestamps from Blockchair. Miners set timestamps, so single gaps are approximate. The wait for your first confirmation also depends on when in the gap you sent.
Don't worry if a Litecoin deposit takes longer than the 2.5 minutes you were told. In our 600 blocks half the gaps were under two minutes, but 88 went past five and one ran 14. After ten minutes or so, paste your transaction ID into Blockchair or another explorer and look at the confirmation count. If it already shows what the casino asked for and the balance still hasn't moved, write to support.
Each casino decides how many confirmations a coin needs and usually prints it in the cashier or the FAQ. Look it up before you deposit. Three Litecoin confirmations came in quicker than one average Bitcoin block that day.
MWEB and address types
If you use Litecoin Core or Cake Wallet, look at the receiving address before you request a withdrawal. Both can hand out an MWEB address starting with ltcmweb1, from Litecoin's optional privacy layer, and not every cashier can pay to one. Switch to a regular address starting with ltc1, L or M for the payout. MWEB also shows up in block explorers as small fee-free transactions, three of them in our sample.
- Bitcoin addresses look similar. Litecoin and Bitcoin share the same address design. If the cashier shows bc1 or an address starting with 1 under Litecoin, stop and check the network.
- Wrapped LTC. LTC tokens on BNB Chain or Ethereum are not native Litecoin and need their own network option.
- Small withdrawals pile up. Each casino payout lands as a separate coin, and spending many at once makes your next transaction bigger. At Litecoin fee rates that still costs fractions of a cent.
Is there a Litecoin share figure?
The casino deposit panel cited by Gambling.com reads four chains, none of them Litecoin, so there's no LTC share to quote. What it does show is stablecoins taking roughly 73 to 76% of deposit value. A Litecoin balance at a casino moves with the LTC price until you cash out.

Questions
What is the network fee for a Litecoin deposit?
Almost nothing. Across 1,000 transactions we pulled that evening, half paid $0.00032 or less, nearly all the rest stayed under $0.0019, and the snapshot median over 24 hours was $0.00035.
How many minutes until a Litecoin deposit confirms?
Count the confirmations your casino wants. Over 600 blocks on 11 and 12 November 2026, three of them took 6.7 minutes at the median and 13.5 minutes at the slow end.
Can I withdraw Litecoin to an MWEB address?
Only if the casino supports it. MWEB addresses start with ltcmweb1, and many cashiers accept only regular Litecoin addresses (ltc1, L or M). Use a regular address to be safe.
Is Litecoin faster than Bitcoin for casino deposits?
Usually. Litecoin targets one block each 150 seconds and Bitcoin one each 600. On 12 November 2026 three Litecoin confirmations took a median 6.7 minutes, and a single Bitcoin block took 11.8 minutes on average.
