US Dollar (USD)
About Litecoin (LTC)
Litecoin (LTC) is one of the earliest altcoins, launched in October 2011 by former Google engineer Charlie Lee. It was designed as the 'silver to Bitcoin's gold' — faster block times (2.5 minutes vs Bitcoin's 10), a different hashing algorithm (Scrypt, originally more resistant to ASIC mining), and a larger total supply (84 million LTC vs Bitcoin's 21 million). Litecoin has historically served as a testing ground for Bitcoin-compatible technology, adopting innovations like Segregated Witness (SegWit) and the Lightning Network before Bitcoin. Litecoin activated MimbleWimble Extension Blocks (MWEB) in 2022, adding optional privacy features. The network has operated continuously with high uptime since launch and remains one of the longest-running cryptocurrencies. LTC is accepted by numerous merchants and payment processors as a faster alternative to Bitcoin for smaller transactions.
