Ltc Address Profile
ltc_address_profileLitecoin (ltc, LTC, mainnet) address PROFILE (lifetime summary): total received & sent (LTC), number of distinct senders/receivers, receiving/spending counts, first/last activity. Use to triage a LTC address during tracing — how much flowed and how connected. NOTE: an aggregate profile, not hop-by-hop edges — ltc_address_flow_summary returns the top counterparties, ltc_flow_edges and ltc_tx_flow the edges. Role from the ratio: Distinct_Senders ≫ Distinct_Receivers = consolidator; the reverse = distributor; thousands of both = mega-hub (exchange — don't trace deeper). Received_LTC / Sent_LTC are cumulative TURNOVER, not holdings: every output ever paid to the address (including the change it pays back to itself inside its own spending transactions) and every input it ever spent. The same coins are counted each time they pass through, so a busy exchange wallet's totals can exceed the coin's total supply many times over; Received_LTC minus Sent_LTC is the balance at this address. Litecoin totals come from a pre-aggregated table that holds a few duplicated and a few missing records. They match the transactions exactly on an ordinary address; on a busy one they can be off in either direction by up to a fraction of a percent (a Litecoin exchange address: 10 receiving outputs and 78 LTC too many, 0.14 %), so a negative balance, or a remainder on an emptied address, can be that artifact rather than real funds. For an exact figure on a single transaction use ltc_tx_flow. No address labels are returned here: identify addresses with labels_for_addresses(chain='litecoin'), which knows only a few hundred Litecoin addresses (exchange reserve wallets, sanctioned entities) — pass many addresses in ONE call; an empty answer there is a coverage gap, not a clean address. Amounts are in LTC; for a USD value use currency_price with currency_id "ltc".

| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| format | No | Shape of the returned data. "rows" (the default) returns one item per row. "columnar" returns a single item, {"columns":[...],"rows":[[value,...],...]}, naming the columns once and listing each row's values in that order; it is more compact for large results and carries the same values. | rows |
| address | Yes | Litecoin address — L… or M… (34 characters, base58, case-sensitive) or ltc1… (bech32, any case). Give an old-style 3… P2SH address in its M… form; private MWEB (ltcmweb1…) addresses and the m-… / d-… script placeholders are rejected. An address of another chain does not have this form and is refused. |
