Litecoin's ecosystem is a lighter, faster fork of Bitcoin — Scrypt mining instead of SHA-256, roughly 4x faster block times — positioned by the nonprofit Litecoin Foundation as a payments-focused complement to Bitcoin rather than a competitor to it.
How it works
- Transaction broadcast
- Miners compete (Scrypt PoW)
- Block added (~2.5 min)
- Wallets confirm receipt
