Lettercoin and eth
was released on October 7, 2011. It is currently the highest market value counterfeit coin, about 1% of BTC's market value, or US $1000W. Compared with BTC, LTC is faster, with an average of 2.5 minutes and 6 confirmations per block in 15 minutes. In addition, the number of LTCs is four times that of BTCs, with a total of 8400w. At present, LTC uses scrypt algorithm, which needs a lot of memory support. The professional mining machine on the market can not be used for LTC mining, only the graphics card
what is the difference between lightcoin and bitcoin
1. Transaction: easier to use, larger volume and greater appreciation potential. The block confirmation time is shorter, which is four times faster than bitcoin. For example, pizza owners are more willing to accept LTC payment to save transaction time< Mining:
special algorithm creates the unique charm of LTC, which is also the key to stand out from Shanzhai coins. Scrypt algorithm uses sha256 as its subroutine, and scrypt itself needs a lot of memory, each hash is used as the input seed, and then needs a lot of memory to store another seed pseudo-random sequence, Generate pseudo-random points of sequence and output hash value. The key is that scrypt algorithm needs a lot of memory while sha256 algorithm does not. So in this era when BTC mining of graphics card is coming to an end, LTC mining is about to usher in a golden period of development. Because of the high cost of memory, any ASIC or FPGA has no advantage over graphics card mining. LTC has advantages, at least in the foreseeable future
3. The biggest threat of bitcoin is 51% attack:
some shanzhais are killed by 51% attack. To be honest, LTC is a worry for the development of LTC and BTC, of course. However, the specific problems they face are different: BTC can avoid 51% attack through technology upgrading (such as end block reconstruction, careful node upgrading, and calculation difficulty), However, there is no way to evade LTC technology. However, e to the scattered computing power of graphics card mining and the increasing difficulty, this problem needs to be paid attention to, but don't worry too much. With the use of ASIC in BTC, the risk of 51% attack is increasing. I hope BTC development team can solve this problem as soon as possible.
in addition, there are Ruibo coin, Ruitai coin, vitality coin, dog coin and other excellent counterfeit coins.
BTC, usdt, ETH, BCH, LTC mean respectively:
1, BTC
bitcoin. The concept was first proposed by Nakamoto in 2009. According to Nakamoto's idea, the open source software is designed and released, and the P2P network is built on it. Bitcoin is a kind of P2P digital currency. Point to point transmission means a decentralized payment system
2, usdt
TEDA currency is a virtual currency that links cryptocurrency with legal currency US dollar, and is a virtual currency kept in foreign exchange reserve account and supported by legal currency
EthEthereum is an open source public blockchain platform with intelligent contract function, which provides decentralized Ethereum virtual machine to process point-to-point contract through its special cryptocurrency ether
4. BCH
bitcoin cash is a new version of bitcoin with different configurations launched by a small number of bitcoin developers
at 20:20 on August 1, 2017, bitcoin cash starts mining, and each bitcoin investor's account will have the same amount of bitcoin cash (BCH)
5, LTC
litecoin, abbreviated as LTC, currency symbol: & # 321;; It is a kind of network currency based on "peer-to-peer" technology. It is also an open source software project under MIT / X11 license. It can help users make instant payments to anyone in the world
