What is Litecoin?

Litecoin (LTC) is an open source рееr-tо-рееr cryptocurrency that was created by Charlie Lee, an ex-Google employee in early 2011 and has gained fairly widespread adoption since its inception.

Litecoin is based on the same open-source code behind Bitcoin, with some notable differences. Litecoin is often referred to as the silver to Bitcoin’s gold.
