Spread is the latest reading, shown as what crossing it costs on one LTC and as a share of the mid in basis points; the median column is over the last 24 hours. Depth is the notional value of resting orders within 1% of the mid on each side, converted to US dollars. Slippage is what a market buy of that size would pay above the mid on the book we read, and is blank where the visible book could not fill it.
- KuCoin (LTC/USDT): Quoted in USDT, counted at one US dollar.
- Crypto.com Exchange (LTC/USD): The 1% band runs past the last level the venue served, so depth is reported as not measured.
- Bitvavo (LTC/EUR): Quoted in EUR; USD figures use this book's own mid against the asset's snapshot US dollar price.
- Gate (LTC/USDT): Quoted in USDT, counted at one US dollar.
- Bitget (LTC/USDT): Quoted in USDT, counted at one US dollar.
- MEXC (LTC/USDT): Quoted in USDT, counted at one US dollar.
- Binance US (LTC/USD): The visible asks could not fill $50,000, so that slippage is not measured.

Method
Pairs are fixed per venue so each series measures the same book over time: the quote currency is chosen once, preferring US dollars, then dollar stablecoins, then euros or the venue's home currency. A non-dollar book's depth is converted using that book's own mid against LTC's snapshot US dollar price.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Which exchange has the tightest LTC spread?
- KuCoin, at $0.01 per LTC (1.89 bps) on LTC/USDT as of the sample taken 1 hour ago. Spreads move, so this page is re-measured every two hours.
- Does a tighter spread mean LTC is cheaper to buy there?
- Only in part. The spread is one of three costs: the trading fee, the spread you cross, and the deposit or card fee that got your money onto the venue. The fee pages put all three together for a given purchase size, and use the measured spread on this page wherever we have one.
- What does 1% depth tell me?
- It is the dollar value of orders resting within 1% of the mid price on one side of the book. A venue with a tight spread but shallow depth will still move against a large order — which is why the table also shows what $500, $5,000 and $50,000 market buys would pay.
