Litecoin (LTC) is one of the oldest and most resilient cryptocurrencies, launched in 2011 by former Google engineer Charlie Lee as a faster, cheaper alternative to Bitcoin. Using the Scrypt proof-of-work algorithm, Litecoin processes a block every 2.5 minutes with a maximum supply of 84 million LTC. The LTC/USD pair maintains consistently high liquidity across global exchanges and is widely accepted as a payment method by merchants worldwide. The most recent Litecoin halving in August 2023 reduced block rewards to 6.25 LTC. The network introduced MimbleWimble Extension Blocks (MWEB) in 2022, adding optional transaction privacy. With over a decade of uninterrupted operation and no major protocol controversies, Litecoin remains a benchmark altcoin. CFD trading on LTC/USD provides straightforward exposure supported by deep, reliable market liquidity.
