A unit of money
According to the current difficulty calculation, we can dig about 1.012 Laite coins a day. This is the average calculation result in the mine pool. If there is an efficient mine pool or solo, maybe more
litecoin (abbreviated as 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
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
design purpose
it is based on bitcoin protocol, but it is different from bitcoin in that 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

transactions
a peer-to-peer network similar to bitcoin handles lightcoin transactions, balances, and issues through a script workload proof scheme (when a sufficiently small hash value is found, the, A block will be created, and the lightcoin will be issued. The process of discovering the hash value and creating the block is called "mining"). The issuing rate of Leyte coins is reced by half every four years (every 840000 pieces) according to the proportional sequence, and finally the total number of LTCs is 84 million. Unlike bitcoin, the memory intensive feature of script makes it more suitable for "mining" with graphics processor (GPU). FPGA (field programmable gate array) and ASIC (application specific integrated circuit) implemented for script are more expensive than sha256 used for bitcoin
currently, lightcoin can exchange legal tender and bitcoin, most of which are through online trading platforms. Revocable transactions (such as credit card transactions) are generally not used to purchase Leyte, because Leyte transactions are irreversible, which brings the risk of refund. As of April 25, 2013, a Leyte is worth about $3.97 or 0.028 bitcoin. This makes Leyte the second largest electronic currency with a market value of about $35 million

litecain is a free software project released under MIT / X11 license, which allows you to run, modify and the software according to your own needs. You can also release a modified version of the software if you like
the software is released in a completely transparent form, and users can independently verify the binary version and the corresponding source code
mine pool
the lightcoin is generated by "miner's mining". Mining is done by hashing with computer graphics card. If the value of "mine burst" is calculated, the system will reward 50 lightcoins at one time. At present, the computing power of lightcoin is growing rapidly, and the miner can't find the mine through several computers. Therefore, it is necessary to join the mine pool, which collects all the computing power, It is estimated that the probability of calculating the "blasting" value is higher
at present, the well-known mine pools include BTCC (original bitcoin China) mine pool, waltc.net fish pool (f2pool), wemineltc, coinotron, silverfish, liteguardian, litecoin pool.org, etc. But at present, the highest income is f2pool. Recently, it launched lightcoin theory income + 10% of mine pool subsidy = your actual income, which has attracted the attention of many miners and the instry

data block chain
litecoin block chain, compared with its competitor bitcoin, can handle larger transaction volume. Due to the more frequent generation of data blocks, the network can support more transactions without modifying the software in the future
as a result, businesses can obtain faster transaction confirmation, and they can still wait for more transaction confirmation when they sell large value procts

bitcoin is an e-money payment system based on the global network
bitcoin is an e-money system based on the global decentralized network system, without the participation of central banks and third-party institutions, with a fixed total amount. Bitcoin has the characteristics of payment system and currency at the same time. Global network nodes are maintaining the bitcoin network all day<
English: bitcoin currency symbol: abbreviation: BTC or XBT
Introction to bitcoin by wiki
different from traditional currency, bitcoin's operation mechanism does not rely on the support or credit guarantee of central bank, government and enterprise, but on the network agreement reached with seed files in the network, which is a decentralized and self-improvement monetary system, Theoretically, it ensures that no one, institution or government can control the total amount of bitcoin or create inflation. Its total amount of money graally increased at the designed rate, and the increase rate graally slowed down, and finally reached the limit of 21 million in 2140<
Introction to bitcoin in network
bitcoin is based on a set of cipher codes and generated by complex algorithms. This rule is not interfered by any indivial or organization and is decentralized; Anyone can download and run the bitcoin client to participate in the proction of bitcoin; Bitcoin uses electronic signature to realize circulation, and checks repeated consumption through P2P distributed network. The generation and consumption of each bitcoin will be recorded through the P2P distributed network and informed to the whole network. There is no possibility of forgery. Bitcoin does not rely on specific currency institutions to issue, it is generated through a large number of calculations of specific algorithms. Bitcoin economy uses a distributed database composed of many nodes in the whole P2P network to confirm and record all transactions. The decentralized nature and algorithm of P2P can ensure that it is impossible to artificially manipulate the value of bitcoin through mass proction<

the difference between bitcoin and bitcoin
it should be noted that
in English, the words bitcoin and bitcoin represent two concepts of payment network and monetary unit
bitcoin starting with capital B represents bitcoin network system or bitcoin network protocol, which is a payment system based on decentralized network
you can simply understand bitcoin as a public accounting system built on the Internet and not manipulated by any third party. Bitcoin, which starts with lowercase B, refers to the digital currency (e-money, e-cash, cryptocurrency) built on bitcoin network. Bitcoin is the payment accounting unit built in bitcoin payment system. We call bitcoin the network system that proces bitcoin<
in Chinese, bitcoin and bitcoin are both called bitcoin without distinction in many places
its main features are as follows:
1. Decentralization
bitcoin is the first distributed virtual currency, and the whole network is composed of users without a central bank. Decentralization is the guarantee of bitcoin's security and freedom< Bitcoin can be managed on any computer connected to the Internet. No matter where you are, anyone can dig, buy, sell or collect bitcoin
3. Exclusive ownership
private key is required to control bitcoin, which can be stored in any storage medium in isolation. No one can get it except the user himself
4. Low transaction cost
bitcoin can be remitted free of charge, but in the end, a small transaction fee will be charged for each transaction to ensure faster transaction execution
5. No hidden cost
as a means of payment from a to B, bitcoin has no cumbersome limit of quota and proceres. If you know the other party's bitcoin address, you can pay<
6. Bitcoin is not completely anonymous

it will take some time to protect privacy when using bitcoin. All bitcoin transactions are publicly and permanently stored in the network, which means that anyone can view the balance and transaction records in any bitcoin address. Unless the bitcoin holder discloses personal information ring the transaction, the bitcoin address will not be associated with the real identity of the bitcoin holder. This is why it is recommended that bitcoin holders use multiple bitcoin addresses; In fact, you should create a new address each time to receive bitcoin. This is especially important when using bitcoin in public places, such as on websites. In addition, you can also consider using tools like tor to hide your IP address from being recorded.

7. Bitcoin is still experimental
bitcoin is an experimental new currency in active development. Although its experimentality is diminishing with its increasing usage, remember that bitcoin is a new invention, exploring ideas that have never been tried before, so no one can predict the future of bitcoin.
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.

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. But in fact, under the expulsion of interests, there has been an ASIC miner with scrypt algorithm, and the competition has become white hot. Many people claim that the recent decline of Leyte coin has something to do with the manufacturers of Leyte coin miner
similarly, at present, the competition among bitcoin mining machine manufacturers is still fierce. Since Avalon proced the world's first ASIC bitcoin miner, so far, it has upgraded three generations of miner chips, and the fourth generation of 28nm miner will come out soon.
According to the data of currency exchange , each Leyte coin is divided into 100000000 smaller units, which are defined by eight decimal places
