Litecoin is a digital currency, originally created in 2011 by a Google engineer called Charlie Lee. Charlie Lee modified, also known as fork, the Bitcoin code that was made public. Litecoin’s algorithm got popular since it’s not as complex to mine as Bitcoin.
Litecoin (LTC) is comparable to Bitcoin in many of its characteristics, however, there are two main differences between their blockchains: speed and amount. To create one block on Bitcoin it takes 10 minutes, while Litecoin needs roughly 2.5 minutes. This is mainly due to its more frequent block generation – meaning 4 times the speed.
Moreover, Litecoin blockchain attracts many users, as it can produce 84 million coins, which is four times the quantity of Bitcoin capability.
Litecoin offers substantial liquidity, trade volume and industry support, since it has been in the crypto market for quite a while for now.
