Leyte belongs to P2P
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 (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.

They are:
bitcoin
the concept of bitcoin was first proposed by Nakamoto in 2009. According to Nakamoto's ideas, the open source software was designed and released, and the P2P network was built on it. Bitcoin is a kind of P2P digital currency. Point to point transmission means a decentralized payment system
bitcoin cash
bitcoin cash is a new version of bitcoin with different configurations launched by a small number of bitcoin developers
extended data:
virtual currency refers to non real currency. Well known virtual currency, such as network company's network currency, Tencent company's Q currency, Q point, Shanda company's voucher, Sina's Micro currency (used for micro games, Sina reading, etc.), chivalrous Yuanbao (used for chivalrous road game), silver pattern (used for bixue Qingtian game)
the popular digital currencies in 2013 are bitcoin, Leyte coin, infinite coin, quark coin, zeta coin, BBQ coin, pennies (Internet), invisible gold bar, red coin and prime currency. At present, hundreds of digital currencies are issued all over the world. Popular in the circle & quot; The legend of "bitcoin, Wright silver, infinite copper, pennies aluminum"
(1) organizers or business operators, through developers, require the developed personnel to pay fees or pay fees in disguised form by subscribing for commodities, so as to obtain the qualification to join or develop other personnel, and seek illegal interests
(2) the organizer or operator, through the development personnel, requires other personnel developed by the development personnel to join, forms the relationship between the upper and lower line, and calculates and pays the online remuneration based on the sales performance of the lower line, so as to seek illegal interests.
litecoin is short for LTC, and its English name is litecoin. Litecoin stands for lightweight. The meaning behind litecoin is lightweight currency
1. Bitcoin generates a block every 10 minutes, while lightcoin LTC generates a block every 2.5 minutes. This means that lightcoin has faster transaction confirmation efficiency. Bitcoin transfer sometimes takes 1 hour or even longer to arrive at the account, but lightcoin generally takes less than 20 minutes to confirm
2. Since the LTC speed of lightcoin is four times that of bitcoin, and the reward of each block is the same as bitcoin, the total amount of money is four times that of bitcoin, which is 84 million lightcoins, which is higher than that of bitcoin<
3. Bitcoin adopts sha256 encryption algorithm, and lightcoin adopts script encryption algorithm. Compared with bitcoin, lightcoin LTC has a slightly lower computational load, which makes it easier to mine and more suitable for graphics card
(GPU) operation. At the same time, FPGA (field programmable gate array) and ASIC (application specific integrated circuit) implemented for script are better than sha256 used for bitcoin, More expensive.
2. The distribution range of P2P network is relatively small, usually in an office or a home
3. The network security management is decentralized, so the data confidentiality is poor
4. Sharing resources and services through the most direct exchange, using non centralized, equal status of each node, as a server and client
because peer-to-peer networks do not need special servers for network support, and do not need other components to improve the performance of the network, so the networking cost is low, and it is suitable for small and medium enterprises or families with less network<

owser / server and slave / master. For example, both intranet and Internet are based on client / server and browser / server mode, while the early host system is based on slave / master mode. The characteristics of these modes are: they are all application oriented, there must be an application server in the network, the user's request must be completed through the application server, and the communication between users must also pass through the server. In peer-to-peer network, users can communicate directly, share resources and work together<
4 software type editing
peer to peer network software mainly includes the following types:
1. Instant messaging software, such as ICQ, anychat, etc. Two or more users can communicate through text, voice or file, and even communicate with mobile phones
peer to peer network
2. Software for sharing file resources, such as Napster and Gnutella. Users can directly download or upload files from any PC installed with similar software, and retrieve and the shared files
3. Game software. Many current online games are realized through peer-to-peer network
4. Storage software, such as FARSITE, is used to store storage objects on the network
5. Data search and query software, such as infrasearch and pointera, is used to complete information retrieval in peer-to-peer networks
6. Collaborative computing software, such as netbatch, can connect thousands or tens of thousands of PCs and use their idle time for collaborative computing
7. Collaborative processing software, such as groove, can be used for enterprise management
8. P2P distributed computing
9, bitcoin, lightcoin and other virtual digital currencies are all built on the P2P network<
5 technical standard editor
there is no unified standard for peer-to-peer networks in the world
in August 2000, a P2P working group was established, with members including Intel, IBM and HP. The other main obstacles to the development of peer-to-peer network are right, network bandwidth, management and security. How to connect phones, mobile phones, household appliances and instrial equipment is also a problem to be solved in peer-to-peer networks
domestic
the domestic peer-to-peer network market started in 2000
there are two main applications in China: file sharing and collaborative work
in terms of file sharing, a number of domestic companies have launched their own procts. At present, the main Chinese peer-to-peer network software include workslink, ezpeer, Jelawat, Kuro and toperson, as well as PASP_ E-school real-time interactive multimedia online classroom teaching software. In the future, enterprise peer-to-peer network application will be a hot spot, which will mainly solve the problems of enterprise internal transaction processing collaboration, enterprise portal, enterprise virtual private network (VPN), remote interaction and broadband applications. Domestic enterprise application procts based on peer-to-peer network technology include km server, SME knowledge management software, etc.
