Virtual currency with the largest circulation
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.
I feel that Babbitt's articles are more complicated, and some of them are more advanced. As a blockchain Xiao, I think the information of chain Oriental is more real-time and can be understood by novices
bitcoin does not have a centralized issuer, but is calculated and generated by network nodes. Anyone can participate in the proction of bitcoin
but bitcoin is not issued in unlimited quantity, and its circulation will be controlled by software algorithms. According to relevant algorithms, the more bitcoins there are, the more difficult it will be to make new ones.
because the total number of bitcoin is only 21 million, this year the number of bitcoin has reached 18 million, and the remaining number is not much. , in addition, many technology giants have expressed their views on bitcoin, such as musk, who said that Tesla may support bitcoin payment in the future, which will also make the bitcoin market more hot, Prices are also climbing
decentralized currency
bitcoin can stand out among a number of virtual currencies and achieve such a high price. One of the biggest characteristics is that bitcoin is a decentralized currency. Unlike our current centralized currency, bitcoin does not have a centralized distribution center
bitcoin is calculated and generated by Internet nodes, and anyone can participate in the proction of bitcoin. As long as there is the Internet, no matter where you are, anyone can trade and mine. This characteristic leads to the fact that bitcoin is more valuable than its counterfeit currency{ RRRRR}
