Before ppl judge me for being excited about a coin I believed in for the past 3 yrs…Know that I helped convince a whale to get into #Łitecoin. My 1st and foremost love is #LTC but @FlexaHQ @amptoken allowed me to spend LTC at over 40k locations nationwide.
- From RealCarlAllen:
@chamath Litecoin. $LTCThe fundamentals of litecoin are basically the same as bitcoin. The only difference is that there are 4x as many to be mined, and bitcoin was a few years earlierAs a store of value, a means of transfer, litecoin has all the same propertiesIt’s valued 1/250 btc
- From LucasNuzzi:
2/ First, let’s talk about network security (I’ll try to keep it simple). Unlike BTC, ETH, or really any other major network, Dogecoin does not have its own miners — it currently relies on another network, Litecoin, to survive.So how did this happen and what does it mean?

Due to an identifiable history being linked to each Bitcoin and Litecoin and an ability for one to analyze previous transactions on their respective blockchains, unfortunately, one Litecoin does not equal one Litecoin….To utilize MWEB, a crypto wallet or exchange would be required to integrate it and help serve as the gateway from which you could move your coins in/out from the main chain over to the MWEB side….Exchanges that support Litecoin can decide whether or not to support Litecoin’s MWEB feature and are not forced to embrace it….MWEB has the ability to scale better than Litecoin and Bitcoin while also having the side benefit of acting as a block size increase on the main chain without there actually being one….It’s interesting to note that the addition of MWEB will mark the second time in Litecoin’s nearly 10 year existence in which Litecoin implements an upgrade prior to Bitcoin….There’s a possibility that Litecoin’s MWEB may serve as a blueprint for Bitcoin to one day achieve higher fungibility and privacy as well.
