Bitcoin and Litecoin are closely related cryptocurrencies — Litecoin was created in 2011 as a 'lighter' version of Bitcoin with faster block times (2.5 min vs 10 min) and lower fees. Swapping BTC to LTC is popular when you need faster transaction confirmations or lower on-chain fees for payments.
Litecoin is one of the oldest and most battle-tested cryptocurrencies. LTC transactions confirm 4x faster than Bitcoin and typically cost under $0.01 in fees. Many merchants who accept crypto prefer LTC for smaller payments. BTC→LTC is also a common way to diversify a Bitcoin-heavy portfolio.
