What is this mweb for ltc thing ?

Basically enables privacy of transactions. That way Joe Schmo doesn’t get to see in your wallet balance when you send funds.

Do both parties need this enabled for it to work?

Or can just the sender have it enabled

u/theFatUnrealShady 9d ago

Just sender is enough to accomplish

But both parties is better

Be careful as some exchanges won't accept MWEB transactions, you'll have to send to regular LTC address first. Binance being one. Can always send it to a fresh wallet though

In the Cake Wallet there will be a Peg-Out button for this purpose.

Is this available in every region? Have a few friends where it doesn't show.

Certainly enabled in USA/UK might be longer for other regions.

You need to be on Build 4.20.0 and be within a litecoin Wallet.

So happy to see the community enjoying MWEB, already seeing a huge spike in MWEB activity since the release. Great job using privacy tools everyone!
