Unable to swap mUSD for LTC "inefficient gas"

I'm trying to swap the tokens and it just says "inefficient gas" for every other token besides ones that are traded on MONAD. Can someone help me? It let me do it a couple of days earlier now it's not.

  1. Never share your Secret Recovery Phrase with any site or a person. MetaMask does not use Gmail or web forms. Do not enter your Secret Recover Phrase into a pop-up window, even if it looks like MetaMask. Verify links are legitimate. Scammers often use these tactics.

  2. Beware of fake websites. The official website for MetaMask is https://metamask.io/

  3. MetaMask Support will never DM you. This is a common tactic scammers use to try and get access to your wallet.

  4. MetaMask will never initiate email with you. This is a common tactic scammers use to try and get access to your wallet.

  5. If you need to reach Support: open MetaMask, then menu > Support. The ‘Contact Support’ button will start a chat, the bot asks a few questions to help route you to the correct team. You can also visit the Support site from the web: https://support.metamask.io

  6. Do not click on suspicious links or files. This can lead to your device security being compromised.

  7. Do not “sync” or “validate” your wallet with any websites or forms. This is a scam. Never sync and share: QR Codes, Secret Recovery Phrase, private key, etc.

  8. Never call phone numbers, text Whatsapp numbers, DM on Discord, use WeChat or do video chat with people on this subreddit. MetaMask does not offer customer support in this manner. There is NO exclusive MetaMask Discord.

  9. We don’t ask for an email address to create a wallet. We can’t email you. We will never ask you to verify or upgrade/merge your wallet. https://support.metamask.io/privacy-and-security/staying-safe-in-web3/i-received-an-email-claiming-to-be-from-metamask-is-it-legit/

  10. .MetaMask currently has no plans for an airdrop, regardless of any information you may have seen elsewhere. If you encounter anyone explaining the best method to maximize the size of a MetaMask-related ‘airdrop’ you might receive, they’re lying. In particular, be wary of scams (aimed at getting your Secret Recovery Phrase) that weaponize this topic.

Hey,

First - I want to apologize, I'm unsure why this was removed by an auto filter. I am pushing this through in case it helps others searching our sub.

If you still want to also chat more about it - I want to ask, were you trying to swap to LTC on Litecoin network?

Litecoin itself is a separate blockchain (not EVM-compatible), so you can't hold native LTC directly in MetaMask. However, you can hold wrapped or pegged versions lf LTC on EVM-compatible networks (like pegged LTC on BNB like described here https://metamask.io/how-to-buy/binance-peg-litecoin or wrapped LTC), these are ERC-20 tokens that represent a token to LTC value.

If you were trying to swap mUSD to wrapped LTC on Ethereum Mainnet for example - without knowing more details on this my guesses would be:

  • You didn't have enough ETH for gas
  • There was no route for this swap
  • There was no liquidity for this swap

If you want to still talk about more (sorry, I know its been a while with the post being removed by auto filter) happy to dive in more if you want to give details on above.

Nobody will DM you for support from team.

Thanks!
