So, lets say you want to buy Verge (XVG), how would I do it following your way?

What is LTC? Is it Lightcoin? if so, I went to LightCoin's Site and was told that I should use a currency exchange site like Bittrex! Meaning that I would have to first buy BTC through a website like Gemeni and then transfer...etc Please explain your steps if you don't mind. Your time is highly appreciated!! Thank you!
