About LTC
Layer 1
Nov 9, 2011
--
Litecoin—released in 2011 by former Google engineer Charlie Lee—derives from Bitcoin code but swaps SHA-256 for Scrypt, sets 2.5-minute blocks, and caps supply at 84 million coins. The faster block cadence yields quicker confirmations, and SegWit plus MimbleWimble Extension Blocks (MWEB) add scalability and optional privacy. Litecoin hosts over 8,000 merchants and processes ~150,000 daily transactions.
