Litecoin (LTC) with an offline key
Litecoin (LTC) is one of the oldest cryptocurrencies, launched in 2011 as a faster sibling of Bitcoin.

Receive and send LTC
Set up the wallet
Install Locker Protocol Wallet in Chrome or Brave, and Locker Vault on a spare phone kept offline. Your addresses reach the extension by QR code.
Receive LTC
Give your address on the network the sender uses. The network matters: LTC sent on one network does not arrive on another.
Send LTC
Enter the recipient and the amount in the extension and check the network fee, then scan the request with the Vault, read it there and approve.
A transfer is paid in the network's own coin, even when you send a token: keep a little of the coin shown in the table.
LTC: questions people ask
Which network should I use to receive LTC?
The one the sender uses. When you withdraw from an exchange, choose the same network in the withdrawal form as the address you give. If they do not match, the funds may not arrive.
Does Locker Protocol Wallet charge a fee to hold or send LTC?
No. Holding costs nothing and a transfer costs only the network fee. The wallet's own fee applies to swaps and bridges made in the extension, at most 0.25%, and it is shown before you sign.
Where is the private key that controls my LTC?
On Locker Vault, the offline device, derived from your recovery phrase. The extension on your computer only knows your addresses, so malware there cannot move your LTC.
