## What about Litecoin?

Litecoin is a peer-to-peer
Peer technology network currency, which is inspired by Bitcoin (BTC) and has the same technical implementation principle. What makes it different from Bitcoin is that it can be "mined" efficiently through consumer-grade hardware, providing faster transaction confirmation (2.5 minutes on average). The Litecoin network is expected to produce 84 million currency units.

With the popularity of Bitcoin, a large number of “copycat” Bitcoin electronic currencies have emerged around the world. As of now, there are at least 30 other electronic currencies around the world, such as Litecoin, Prime Coin, Biocoin, Ripple Coin, Lucky Coin, Mecard Coin, etc. The most famous of these altcoins is Litecoin, and there is even a saying in the industry called "Bit Gold, Lite Silver".

Charlie Lee, the creator of Litecoin, graduated from MIT and was a former employee of Google. He designed Litecoin in 2011.

Litecoin is inspired by Bitcoin and technically has the same implementation principles. The creation and transfer of Litecoin are based on an open source encryption protocol and are not managed by any central authority.

Charlie Lee liquidated Litecoin in December 2017 and was known as the "god operation" in the currency circle. He said on social media that he had sold and donated all his Litecoins, but the quantity and price of the sale were not announced.

In this regard, Charlie
Lee said he was sometimes accused of personal gain when talking about cryptocurrency prices on social media, so he believed holding Litecoin and publishing about it constituted a conflict of interest. However, many investors also questioned that Li Qiwei had lost confidence in Litecoin and wanted to withdraw from it.

At that time, Litecoin showed obvious upward momentum. After Charlie
Before Lee was liquidated, it reached a high price of $375, a 7,000% increase from the beginning of the year. Following its liquidation, both Litecoin and Bitcoin saw significant price pullbacks in 2018, with the cryptocurrency market in the doldrums.

After liquidating Litecoin, Charlie
Lee once said in an interview that he "regrets selling all Litecoin" because in the short term the selling price was lower than the highest level in history, but he still believed that this was the right decision in the long run and said he would fade out after Litecoin succeeds. .

However, because Bitcoin is the first, it is still very difficult for Litecoin to surpass Bitcoin. However, Litecoin is an altcoin of Bitcoin. , its development has been very good.
