LitDEX

LitDEX is a fully on-chain trading venue on LitVM, an EVM-compatible zero-knowledge rollup for Litecoin that pays gas in zkLTC and anchors settlement to the Litecoin main chain. Beyond swaps and liquidity it bundles token and contract deployment, a points system, on-chain mini-games, NFTs and .lit names, plus a Hub layer for social functions, aiming to put trading, issuance and identity in one execution environment.

It addresses the absence of a programmable layer in the Litecoin ecosystem: LTC has long served only for payments and store of value, leaving asset issuance and complex trading without a home, while bridges add their own trust assumptions. A zero-knowledge rollup adds EVM execution while keeping main-chain settlement, connecting Litecoin's hashpower security to Ethereum tooling so developers can reuse Solidity contracts. LiteForge testnet figures disclosed in May 2026 showed 1 million transactions, 468,100 game rounds, 119,700 unique players and 300,000 contract deployments. Its narrative is the programmable entry to Litecoin.
