▸ /notes
01
Faster blocks, cheaper fees.
Litecoin's 2.5-minute block target means the mempool clears 4× more often than Bitcoin's. Outside short demand spikes, fee rates settle near the minimum tier — making LTC a low-friction settlement layer for small payments.
02
Same vbytes accounting.
Litecoin inherited SegWit and the witness discount. Tx-size estimates here are identical to Bitcoin's because the script structure is the same: a 1-input 2-output P2WPKH spend is ~141 vbytes whether it confirms on Bitcoin or Litecoin.
03
Estimates, not guarantees.
Mempool conditions change quickly. The "next block" tier is a snapshot — high-throughput periods can push fees up faster than the page refreshes. For time-sensitive sends, pad the rate or use replace-by-fee.
▸ /faq
01

How are Litecoin fees calculated?

Same as Bitcoin: total fee = vbytes × fee rate (litoshi/vB). Vbytes count witness data at a 4× discount, so SegWit and Taproot transactions pay less than legacy ones for the same logical operation.

02

Why are Litecoin fees so low?

Litecoin produces blocks roughly 4× faster than Bitcoin (every 2.5 minutes vs 10) and has lower demand pressure. The mempool clears more often, so fee rates settle near the minimum almost continuously.

03

Are tx vbytes the same as Bitcoin?

Yes — Litecoin inherits Bitcoin's SegWit and script structure, so a P2WPKH 1-input/2-output transaction is the same ~141 vbytes on both chains.

04

Where does the data come from?

Live from a public Litecoin fee-estimation endpoint that aggregates current mempool conditions. Numbers refresh automatically every minute.
