History
Litecoin was released via an open-source client on GitHub on October 7, 2011 by Charlie Lee, a Google employee who later became Engineering Director at Coinbase. The Litecoin network went live on October 13, 2011.
It was a source code fork of the Bitcoin Core client, differing primarily by having a decreased block generation time (2.5 minutes), increased maximum number of coins, different hashing algorithm (scrypt, instead of SHA-256), and a slightly modified GUI.
During the month of November 2013, the aggregate value of Litecoin experienced massive growth which included a 100% leap within 24 hours.
In May 2017, Litecoin became the first of the top 5 (by market cap) cryptocurrencies to adopt Segregated Witness. Later in May of the same year, the first Lightning Network transaction was completed through Litecoin, transferring 0.00000001 LTC from Zürich to San Francisco in under one second.
Differences from Bitcoin
Litecoin is different in some ways from Bitcoin.[citation needed]
The Litecoin Network aims to process a block every 2.5 minutes, rather than Bitcoin's 10 minutes. This allows Litecoin to confirm transactions much faster than Bitcoin.
Litecoin uses scrypt in its proof-of-work algorithm, a sequential memory-hard function requiring asymptotically more memory than an algorithm which is not memory-hard.[citation needed]
Due to Litecoin's use of the scrypt algorithm, FPGA and ASIC devices made for mining Litecoin are more complicated to create and more expensive to produce than they are for Bitcoin, which uses SHA-256.
When it comes to Litecoin as a method of payment, in early days there was correlation to Bitcoin in terms of extended payment patterns. Although one might assume that payment patterns of Litecoin would converge to Bitcoin, it has been found that there is little correlation of the payment patterns of Litecoin vs Bitcoin today, and these patterns continue to diverge over time

And from a practical perspective, tyrannies are less energy-efficient than free markets because they require tyrants to expend resources enforcing compliance with their imposed rulesets and protecting their turf. Voluntary games (free market capitalism) outcompete involuntary games (centrally planned socialism) as they do not accrue these enforcement and protection costs: hence the reason capitalism (freedom) outcompetes socialism (slavery) in the long run. Since interpersonal interdependency is at the heart of the comparative advantage and division of labor dynamics that drive the value proposition of economic cooperation and competition, we can say that money is an infinite game: meaning that its purpose is not to win, but rather to continue to play. After all, if one player has all the money, the game ends (like the game of Monopoly).ethereum сложность ethereum blockchain bitcoin 30 miningpoolhub monero 22 bitcoin

Putting 1-5% of a portfolio into Bitcoin can potentially improve risk-adjusted returns as a non-correlated asset. In the most bullish case, it could go up 10-20x or more, including in an environment where stocks and many other assets decrease in value. In a bearish case, it could lose value or even go to zero.mining ethereum

It takes a small amount of money to move the needle on a small investment, but a lot of money to move the needle on a big investment. It’s easier for the network to go from $20 million to $200 million (requiring a few thousand enthusiasts), in other words, than to go from $200 billion to $2 trillion (requiring mass retail adoption and/or broad institutional buy-in).carding bitcoin analysis bitcoin boom bitcoin microsoft ethereum bitcoin ebay 3 bitcoin bitcoin проблемы txid ethereum ethereum android bitcoin tor boom bitcoin korbit bitcoin monero криптовалюта monero новости ethereum покупка algorithm bitcoin

cryptocurrency tech The lack of savings and economic instability is all driven by the broken incentives of the underlying currency, and this is the principal problem which bitcoin fixes. By eliminating the possibility of monetary debasement, incentives that were broken become aligned; there will only ever be 21 million and that alone is sufficiently powerful to begin to reverse the trend of financialization. While each bitcoin is divisible into 100 million units (or down to 8 decimal points), the nominal supply of bitcoin is capped at 21 million. Bitcoin can be divided into smaller and smaller units as more and more people adopt it as a monetary standard, but no one can arbitrarily create more bitcoin. Consider a terminal state in which all 21 million bitcoin are in circulation; technically, no more than 21 million bitcoin can be saved, but the consequence is that 100% of all bitcoin are always being saved — by someone at any particular point in time. Bitcoin (including fractions thereof) will transfer from person to person or company to company but the total supply will be static (and perfectly inelastic).bitcoin news Did you know?bitcoin математика rx580 monero bitcoin скачать By JAKE FRANKENFIELDrpc bitcoin china bitcoin приложение bitcoin bitcoin goldmine darkcoin bitcoin ethereum обмен bitcoin loto

Now, if your bank gets hacked similarly - 5 key operatives in the bank decide to swipe your money and pretend it was external hackers - SWIFT transfers are made to accounts in Russia and China. Here it will always ultimately be at the discretion of legal agencies whether you 'actually' still have the money that is stolen. Because dollars are not real, they can be created at a whim, and while reversing international transfers is not quite so simple, very often that reversal can be achieved (e.g. recent SWIFT hack at bangladesh bank; $1 billion stolen, all but $80 million 'recovered' (just means wire transfers reversed)). Added to that consider that fiat money is insured, so even when transfers can't be reversed, the money can be 'recovered'. If too many banks get hacked all at once the Federal Reserve and the government together can make up some 'fund' that magically reassigns balances any time they like, with sufficient political will (that's essentially what was happening in 2008 TARP etc).multisig bitcoin bitcoin википедия bitcoin elena blockstream bitcoin bitcoin mt5 bitcoin make bitcoin casascius bitcoin converter пузырь bitcoin книга bitcoin ютуб bitcoin сеть ethereum cryptocurrency capitalisation mooning bitcoin bitcoin вирус bitcoin hardfork monero btc bitcoin clouding cubits bitcoin secp256k1 ethereum обмен ethereum nicehash bitcoin monero wallet bitcoin 5 монеты bitcoin bitcoin конверт tether пополнение future bitcoin mail bitcoin api bitcoin android tether ethereum пул bitcoin icons net bitcoin кредиты bitcoin By Learning - Coinbase Holiday Dealкупить bitcoin habrahabr bitcoin bitcoin настройка bitcoin free 16 bitcoin ethereum siacoin ethereum farm розыгрыш bitcoin bitcoin китай ethereum debian video bitcoin ebay bitcoin poloniex ethereum ethereum forks bitcoin даром обменник tether BitcoinCash was created when a group of Bitcoin users disagreed with some of Bitcoin’s rules and broke away to form their own digital currency in 2017.

Today’s Bitcoin network uses what is called Proof-of-Work to do this. The first iteration of this was something called Reusable Proof-of-Work and it was introduced by Hal Finney. Its goal was to prevent digital tokens or 'money' from being spent twice, what is classically known as the 'double-spend problem.'A 'seed' is calculated for each block. This seed is different for every 'epoch,' where each epoch is 30,000 blocks long. For the first epoch, the seed is the hash of a series of 32 bytes of zeros. For every subsequent epoch, it is the hash of the previous seed hash. Using this seed, a node can calculate a pseudo-random 'cache.'кошелька bitcoin finney ethereum bitcoin кошелька bitcoin doubler bitcoin обвал
