all three major domestic exchanges can trade: bitcoin China BTCC, bank okcoin and currency network Huobi. In addition to bitcoin, only lightcoin can trade in these three exchanges. It can be seen that lightcoin is comparable to bitcoin in terms of security and recognition
whether you can invest or not depends on the specific situation of the indivial. You can't give specific suggestions
there will be an important upgrade of Leyte soon, and the K-line chart shows that the current price is at a historical low
finally, I would like to remind you that many MLM teams now see the value of bitcoin and lettercoin, such as global circulation, anonymity, decentralization and so on. We must carefully distinguish between bitcoin and lettercoin in the name of MLM.
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.
Litecoin (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< better use of digital currency trading platform coin exchange
data expansion:
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

According to the domestic bitcoin, lightcoin trading platform bitcoin China and fire coin network quotation: at present, the price of lightcoin is about 58 yuan
recently, e to the FBI auction of bitcoin and the rumor that the Bank of communications will thoroughly investigate the account number of bitcoin trading platform and the impact of bitcoin core developers' outcry for stagnation in the development of bitcoin basic protocol, the prices of bitcoin and lightcoin have dropped. Among them, the price of lightcoin has not been affected by the rising price of bitcoin. The price is moderate and keeps growing slowly. When the price of bitcoin falls, lightcoin still falls
extended data:
design purpose
based on bitcoin protocol, but different from bitcoin, even at the present stage, it can efficiently "mine" through consumer hardware. Liteoin provides you with faster transaction confirmation (2.5 minutes on average). It uses hard memory and mining workload proof algorithm based on scrypt (an encryption algorithm). It is oriented to ordinary computer and graphics processor (GPU) used by most people. The litecain network is expected to proce 84 million currency units
one of the design purposes of litecoin is to provide a mining algorithm, which can be run simultaneously on the bitcoin mining machine. With the rise of application specific integrated circuits (ASIC) designed for bitcoin mining, litecoin is also closely following the technological evolution. But before the widespread use of litecoin currency, it is unlikely that there will be an application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) specially designed for litecoin
bitcoin, lightcoin and other virtual cryptocurrencies are defined by the central bank as a kind of special Internet goods in China. Citizens can buy and sell freely at their own risk, which denies their monetary attribute. Central bank governor Zhou Xiaochuan once said that bitcoin is more like a tradable asset, similar to stamps. Since it's a commodity or asset, it's legal. Citizens' property is sacred and inviolable. Bitcoin house also published the full text of the joint notice on bitcoin risk issued by the central bank and other five ministries and commissions in 2013. You can see it from the emotional point of view
most of the major countries in the world also adopt a cold attitude towards bitcoin, because bitcoin may be used for money laundering, drug trading and other illegal activities.
At 15:16 on June 20, 2015, the price of bitcoin in China is: 17.27 yuan / piece. Here is the market chart:
if the country dies out, people can rely on virtual currency to manage themselves, which is equivalent to no Seigniorage and no quantitative easing
virtual currency, which provides many new algorithms, cryptography, Internet technology, identification technology and new trading platform technology, has replaced many government functions. Can we say that virtual currency is a Noah's Ark for human beings to move towards the future?
