Litecoin is one of the earliest cryptocurrencies created as a faster and more lightweight version of Bitcoin. Launched in 2011, it was designed to improve the speed and cost of transactions while maintaining many of Bitcoin’s core principles, including decentralisation, fixed supply, and transparency.
Often referred to as “digital silver” to Bitcoin’s gold, Litecoin processes blocks faster and has lower transaction fees. This makes it a popular choice for people who want to send crypto quickly or experiment with smaller payments.
While newer projects have entered the market, Litecoin continues to be widely used and supported. It’s known for its reliability, strong community, and long track record as one of the most established digital assets. If you're new to crypto or looking for something tried and tested, Litecoin is a smart place to start.
