Lightcoin terminal out of the United States

1. Preface: please make sure that you have a basic understanding of electronic money (especially cryptography money) before reading this article, and understand the basic knowledge of "POW workload proof mechanism", timestamp and block chain system, decentralization, etc., which will not be repeated here

bitcoin is rising wildly, and e-money has set off a wave of speculation. Light currency (LTC) soared more than ten times, reaching a high price of 300 yuan. At the same time, a large number of counterfeit coins appeared, and the increase was amazing. It's not unusual to see them rise several times a day. E-money market has shown a strong speculative, investment risk has emerged. But is bitcoin the only winner? Is there any other e-coin that can "" the miracle of bitcoin, or even surpass it

assuming the success of e-money in the future, some people say that we only need one e-money. If the number of bitcoin is limited, it's OK to use mbtc or smaller units to trade when the price is very high. Other electronic coins are repetitive and meaningless

let's see how bitcoin has changed from "meaningless behavior" to a successful case, and what experience can be summed up

firstly, based on the combination of private key and public key of electronic cryptocurrency, bitcoin creatively proposed the block chain mechanism, as well as the binding of mining (protecting the whole network) and currency issuance rewards. And the implementation of a constant total to create deflation expectations, difficulty automatic adjustment to ensure fairness, as well as competitive mining and competitive block branches, to maximize the protection of the interests of the holders and miners, to achieve a win-win situation

this mechanism mobilizes the enthusiasm of miners and forms a virtuous circle. BTC rises, calculating power rises, calculating power rises, BTC is more stable and has higher value, so as to promote the price to continue to rise. Until now, bitcoin has formed an indestructible block chain system, which is the most valuable part of the bitcoin system, ensuring the maximum security of bitcoin holders, as well as the decentralized network structure, ensuring the openness and fairness of the bitcoin world. Social capital has invested a lot in bitcoin, forming a whole instrial chain. This is the value created by bitcoin from scratch. Although there are speculative factors, to a certain extent, the market value of bitcoin reflects this value

BTC calculation force: http://blockchain.info/charts/hash-rate

but does this mean that bitcoin must be the most successful, and it will forever occupy the market share of the whole e-money in the future without further improvement

next, I'll make a comparison with LTC. Instead of recommending buying LTC, I'll talk about whether LTC can solve some problems of BTC and whether it will cause some new troubles< First of all, BTC has the following problems:

1, long confirmation time

I casually selected the current mining records and found that the block confirmation time was too long. First of all, the BTC default 10 minutes out of the block, has been a relatively long time. For some deals, it's a time of impatience. And because the difficulty is already very high, the block time is further uneven, sometimes it is normal not to block for 20 minutes. These 20 minutes, together with the confirmation waiting time and other processing time of various trading websites, often result in extremely slow recharge and withdrawal speed. It is common to wait for an hour. Waiting for a bitcoin transaction is really a boring thing, which limits its application in reality. Even for this reason, a third party, similar to Alipay's third party centralization letter, is needed to solve.

the two-and-a-half block time of LTC greatly alleviates this problem. An LTC transaction will be completed in a short time without any anxious waiting. It can be said that LTC solves the problem of BTC

2, centralization

although BTC claims to be a decentralized currency, it is relative to legal currency. In practice, e to historical problems and ASIC mining machine problems, BTC's centralization problem is very serious, which can be discussed from two aspects

the first is the centralization of computing power. Although ASIC mining machine is inevitable in history, BTC is rising rapidly, so the centralization of computing power is very serious. It can be seen from this picture that the first and second mines are ready to start 51%. Although it is said that 51% will destroy the whole network, which is not good for the mining pool, bitcoin is a place outside the law after all. Everything is guaranteed by mathematical formulas and algorithms, and credit is established voluntarily. In the face of huge profit temptation, it is inevitable that nothing will happen, or the confidence of the holders will be affected. This is not good for bitcoin

some people say that LTC will develop special mining machines sooner or later, so as to enter the era of centralization. I think there is a degree of problem. After all, it is a fact that bitcoin mines are seriously concentrated, and as long as the concentration of LTC is lower than BTC, the risk can be smaller

the second is the centralization of holding money. I don't have statistics of LTC holding currency here, but I have statistics of BTC holding currency. This centralization of holding money is appalling. This means that a very small number of people control the vast majority of the wealth of the entire network. Of course, some addresses belong to the exchange, but this is absolutely very serious differentiation. Here's the data: http://btc.ondn.net/search

and the centralization of computing power aggravates this situation: half of bitcoin has been g out and concentrated in the hands of a few people, and then the rest that has not been g out will also be g out by a few people (because of the concentration of computing power). The new people have no choice but to pay for it

although some people refute me that since BTC is valuable, it should be exchanged with legal currency. The problem is that when the existing BTC has been monopolized, the future BTC will also be monopolized, and the price is not set by the buyer. It's like everyone says that China's real estate is unfair. If the existing houses are controlled by a few "real estate uncle" people, The land development in the future is also tightly controlled by the Bureau of land and resources. Isn't it true that the common people have to pay for it, and how much they will pay for it is up to them

- the original attitude towards real estate changed when it came to BTC. Of course, the reason is that the bottom of the BTC holder determines the head. As if you bought a few suites, you will say that the real estate market is fair

by contrast, LTC has only g up a quarter of the total, and the computing power is relatively average. Any ordinary people can buy a graphics card to dig their own mines. At least the new LTC can be obtained at a relatively balanced price. From this point of view, if the overall value of e-money needs to be increased by 10 billion or even 100 billion US dollars in the future, then adding all of them to BTC will only lead to a few people becoming millionaires of 100 billion US dollars, which is obviously not the original intention of developing e-money< There is a serious problem with Nakamoto's BTC, which is that Nakamoto has more than 2 million BTCs. Now we are willing to believe that Nakamoto is a good man and a God, but how can we trust an indivial when we believe in mathematics and physics? On the premise of minimum trust, Nakamoto is also a mortal. If the market value of BTC is large enough, Nakamoto's goods will become a time bomb. Even if he doesn't drop the price, he becomes the God of the world and has the most wealth. Not to mention that some BTCs confiscated by the FBI will be auctioned sooner or later. This good thing that has contributed to the American people will be left to the people of the world

LTC does not have this problem. The history is very clean. We dig together and everything is open. When digging LTC, many players already have BTC experience, so the mining is relatively balanced at the beginning, and there is no private situation such as the founding team stealing. This has laid a good foundation for LTC.

4. Whether the gold silver ratio is applicable to BTC and LTC is a funny question, which just shows the ignorance of public speculators. Bitkin, Wright silver, said that this statement of the media is a manifestation of extreme ignorance

first of all, is the value of e-money related to the circulation? If the circulation of LTC is a quarter of that of BTC, is the value of LTC a quarter of that of BTC? If I issue a kind of NCC with brain damage now, with only one circulation, should the price be 9999999

it's just as ridiculous to anchor the issue volume as to compare the circulation of stocks. Money can only be valued by the total market value. It's meaningless to talk about circulation. As for the gold and silver ratio, it's a big laugh. The ratio of gold and silver is determined by the instrial value and output of gold and silver. Electronic money has no value other than monetary property, and there is no such thing as output and reserves. The output and reserves of money are only monetary units. If you don't understand this, you can go back to the furnace

moreover, BTC and LTC have direct exchange markets, and their proportion is the result of market game, which is the short-term optimal solution in itself. There is nothing to say. What the market says is what it says, which has nothing to do with the current market, let alone gold and silver

5. About Shanzhai coin

some people say that LTC is also a kind of "counterfeit" currency, which has no value. Some people think that with so many counterfeit coins, you can fry any one that is not. I think both views are wrong

first of all, BTC is an open-source e-coin, and the word "Shanzhai" itself contains a strong central idea in the minds of the Chinese people, hoping that an Immortal Emperor or Nakamoto congda God has made a kind of immortal coin, and the others are all from "Shanzhai". In the open source world, everyone has the right to make money. Any money is "counterfeit" money. Bitcoin was worthless before, and its value was given after the market recognized it. As long as another currency can also be recognized and accepted by the market, it is reasonable to give it a market value, and the amount of market value given is also determined by the market, which may not exceed bitcoin

assuming that the long-term market is effective, excluding speculation, whether a currency can be given value by the market mainly depends on several factors (I personally think)

2. 1. Do you have your own account? Do you remember the code? If you have all of them, you can check them on the platform. If they are invested on the BLC platform, I can check them for you
2. Don't simply define what MLM is. Many people don't know how to pretend to understand it, and they gloat over it. They want you to lose money and watch it
3. Investing in BTC, LTC, and EGD will not be a problem. Over the past few years, the problems have been caused by the investors' families or friends around them. The solution is that you should learn to operate by yourself
4. In recent three years, most of the collapsed investment platforms in China are entities, and some of them are fake virtual coins. Now I'm talking about lightcoin, which is as reliable as bitcoin. The characteristics or advantages of investing Wright coin, no matter whether it increases or does not increase in value, players are making a lot of money. For example, 1000 Wright coins are a single (today's price is 26). 3 yuan a piece), get 10 coins a day, 220 coins a month, but can withdraw 60%, the remaining 40% storage, when stored to 1000, automatically upgrade to 2000, that is, two single, then get 20 coins a day, and so on
5. Note that since 2014, many domestic financial experts have commented on how bad bitcoin is, and some messy people will also make sarcastic remarks. Over the past two years, there have been comments on videos and bad articles, but all of them are wrong. Why? Because it's new. It is impossible for backward cultural environment to accept new things in time. Looking at the latest and cutting-edge things depends on what people in the United States or other developed countries are doing.

4. Compared with struggling repeatedly in the 2000-3000 range in April, the current price is more than 3000, but the popularity seems to be even colder. Compared with the price at that time, the lightcoin has fallen by half instead of rising, and the LTC / BTC exchange rate has dropped by 1%
however, once it reaches the bottom of the market, it will start to warm up. Don't forget, last year was a big bull market after LTC / BTC fell below 1%

will LTC return to zero
I don't think so. I'm not saying that LTC will not fall any more. I'm just saying that if BTC has a bull market in the future, LTC will certainly have a bull market. The essence of LTC's current decline is that the niche coincides with BTC, which has no characteristics and application. The myth that scrypt algorithm can resist mining machine has been shattered

but what about other counterfeit coins
e to the strategy of fast halving, the computing power of dog coin is far from enough to compete with LTC. In theory, other algorithms such as X11 and x13, which are known to be able to resist mining machines, will be cracked sooner or later. In fact, coins such as mark and black, which are characterized by anonymity, are not very competitive. Anonymity is just a small demand, Can you imagine that money will be completely anonymous in the future? Anonymity is always just a small demand
I saw a "dark forest theory of cryptography currency" before, and I really forgot who put forward it in the circle. What I said was that under the premise of mining machinery, the currency of sha256 algorithm is easy to be killed by Avalon, so it doesn't grow very long; Now scrypt algorithm mining machine comes out, who is the master of this algorithm field? It can only be LTC. After a lot of currencies fall to a certain extent, they are in danger without the support of computing power. They speed up the capital flight, then speed up the escape of computing power, and enter the dead cycle. It's very difficult to get out and finally die slowly
dog coin is now in such a cycle. Coupled with the fact that it has been halved too fast, the escape of computing power is more obvious. Without computing power, the pow coin is a joke. The system is weak, and the big money can only go out, but the price has been falling, so can computing power. In addition, dog is just a fad culture, just like Jiangnan style, Who else is singing in the street now? Therefore, the prospect of dog coin is very bad. The dog coin is like this, and other scrypt coins are not worth mentioning. It seems that LTC dominates scrypt algorithm
BTC applications are colorful and LTC applications are scarce, which can't be compared. However, other currencies don't seem to have any applications either. All kinds of second-generation coins are too busy to worry about. Therefore, it's not a problem. When BTC rises sharply, it's expected that LTC will rise more than BTC
of course, I'm not encouraging you to buy the bottom. I haven't entered the LTC since 60

5. There is a lot of discussion about "Wright is dead" on the Internet, mainly because of the sharp drop in its price in the past few months
is the Wright coin dying? In fact, for many reasons, it is not reliable to say that Leyte currency is extinct or that it has lost its second place in virtual currency. There are also signs that the rumors are coming from other virtual currency supporters, not from the lettercoin community. There are still many advantages to lightcoin, which can make it the second largest virtual currency in the world. Now they need to focus on the miners

6. About three years ago, lightcoin was invented by Chinese American Charles Lee, the younger brother of Li Qiyuan, CEO of bitcoin China. Bitcoin house reports

lightcoin is inspired by bitcoin (BTC) and has the same implementation principle in technology. The creation and transfer of lightcoin is based on an open source encryption protocol and is not managed by any central authority. Lightcoin aims to improve bitcoin. Compared with bitcoin, lightcoin has three significant differences. First, the lightcoin network can process a block every 2.5 minutes (instead of 10 minutes), so it can provide faster transaction confirmation. Second, the lightcoin network is expected to proce 84 million lightcoins, four times the amount of money issued by bitcoin network. Thirdly, the scrypt encryption algorithm first proposed by Colin Percival is used in lightcoin's workload proof algorithm, which makes it easier to mine lightcoin on ordinary computer than bitcoin. Each Leyte is divided into 100000000 smaller units, defined by eight decimal places.

7. According to Forbes magazine's list of the top 30 virtual currencies listed by the total market value and price of virtual currencies as of 10:00 a.m. local time on the 27th, there are at least 60 kinds of virtual currencies currently traded, according to caijing.com and the venture capital post According to the Forbes report, bitcoin ranked first in market value and unit price. It was the lightcoin designed by Li Qiwei, a former Google programmer, that won "erlianya". In the past week up to the 27th, the price of lightcoin rose rapidly from $6 to $26, a considerable increase

because bitcoin is a virtual currency, and it was issued in 2009, which can be regarded as the leading currency, while lightcoin was issued in 2011. During this period, there will be other digital currency shocks. However, lightcoin has been ranked the second in the list so far. How objective is its value and investment intensity
for the current trading environment, digital currency can also be invested in mobile phones. If you want to do it on the mobile phone, you can only download the software app about the relevant platform, register and log in, which is convenient and fast. The app of domain Kingdom has attracted the attention and praise of many investors. Investors only need to create an account of their own on the website, and then pay $100 to activate the account to trade. It should be noted that the $100 here is not a handling charge, but the capital of the investor
compared with other investment methods, the investment time of virtual currency is shorter and the profit is faster. In fact, no matter what kind of investment you are making, technology and mentality are indispensable. Therefore, we should maintain a good investment mentality, not be in a hurry for success, but be progressive.

8. Of course, there are people in the United States who play bitcoin. After all, lightcoin was also invented by Chinese Americans, the younger brother of Li Qiyuan, President of bitcoin China. Cryptocurrencies such as bitcoin and lightcoin came from Europe and the United States. At first, those who played bitcoin were all European and American countries. However, it is commendable that the Chinese are relatively smart, and every upgrading of the mining instry is inseparable from China

for example, the bitcoin mining entered the ASIC era, thanks to Avalon and roast cat. Of course, the butterfly experiment in the United States also contributed, but the consistent ticket skipping style of the butterfly laboratory in the United States is despised. There is also the roast cat with the upgrading of technology is graally marginalized, at present only Avalon has been in the forefront of innovation. It's the same with Laite coin ASIC mining. The Chinese were the first to develop Laite coin ASIC mining chips, which broke the myth that ASIC chips can't be used in Laite coin mining.

9. Lettercoin is network currency
litecoin (abbreviated as LTC, currency symbol: Ł) 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
lightcoin is inspired by bitcoin (BTC) and has the same implementation principle in technology. The creation and transfer of lightcoin is based on an open source encryption protocol and is not managed by any central organization. Lightcoin aims to improve bitcoin. Compared with bitcoin, lightcoin has three significant differences. First, the lightcoin network can process a block every 2.5 minutes (instead of 10 minutes), so it can provide faster transaction confirmation. Second, the lightcoin network is expected to proce 84 million lightcoins, four times the amount of money issued by bitcoin network. Thirdly, the scrypt encryption algorithm first proposed by Colin Percival is used in lightcoin's workload proof algorithm, which makes it easier to mine lightcoin on ordinary computer than bitcoin. Each Leyte is divided into 100000000 smaller units, defined by eight decimal places.

10. Isolated witness (usually abbreviated as segwit) is an update of bitcoin software, which aims to solve a series of serious problems faced by bitcoin
segwit is a proposed update to bitcoin core developed by bitcoin's long term team. Bitcoin core is the most popular bitcoin standard client, which is used by most enterprises in the instry.
