About Litecoin (LTC)

Litecoin is a Bitcoin-derived cryptocurrency created in 2011 by Charlie Lee as a faster, lighter complement to Bitcoin. It uses Scrypt proof-of-work with a 2.5-minute block time and supports SegWit. Litecoin anchors the scrypt merge-mining ecosystem — Dogecoin and the wider AuxPoW family are secured by Litecoin's hashrate. ccnodes runs Litecoin as the primary chain of its merge-mining pool, served from its own full node and Fulcrum address index.
