Thank you

for working on . Indigo’s mission to crowdfund Litecoin projects has grown to another level.
Also thanks to those who’ve already donated to funding projects, like the Litecoin Space block explorer, and Electrum-LTC wallet!

Jensen’s job is to hype AI so investors buy more NVIDIA stock, thinking that NVIDIA hardware will be used to power the AI. He will say whatever he wants to achieve this as long as it’s not technically illegal.
Ladies and Gentleman, we did it!
MWEB will activate on Litecoin's Testnet very shortly. Thank you to everyone who donated their hash rate mining on ltcpool testnet.
Now let's get MWEB activated on Litecoin's main net!

This is why Bitcoin & Litecoin devs have been working to offload transactions from the Bitcoin network to a second layer (L2).
L2 technologies such as Lightning ⚡️ Network & Liquid Sidechain.

Fees reduce bloat in blocks, by making it expensive to spam.
Propagating 10MB blocks every 6s over a decentralised network is hard. Only giant server farms like AWS would be able to handle the load.
At that point, why even use a blockchain if not for decentralisation?

on the difference between $BTC and $LITE and what each can offer investors:
MimbleWimble via Extension Blocks (MWEB) is almost here. You're a Bitcoin maximalist, so why should you care?
MWEB allows users on the Litecoin blockchain to move funds to L2 where transaction amounts cannot be observed by the public. (1/5)
LoafWallet's 2.0.5 update will be released in the next few days. Important: make sure to backup your paper-key (12 words) to a secure location.
You can find your paper-key at: LoafWallet > Menu > Security Centre > Paper Key. Loosing your key will lead to a loss of coins.
Seeing how people lost trust because I sold makes me more convinced that it was the right move. Litecoin was too centralized and dependent on me. Eventually, for Litecoin to succeed, I need to step away. But I promise I won't do that until I've helped LTC climb back past the ATH.
OmniLite is out! You can now create tokens on the Litecoin network!
Who's gonna be the first to release liteBTC & liteETH? Send and receive Bitcoin and Ethereum with low transaction fees?
The Foundation is proud to announce the release of OmniLite! A decentralized platform to create tokens/assets via the Litecoin blockchain. This innovation is thanks in part to Litecoin Dev

Or buy from the LF Store (all profits go towards development):
I’m offering a $2K bounty to the first person to add neutrino support for LTC (mainnet/testnet) within 1 month time. This must support bitcoin too, and a PR must be submitted to the official lnd repo at and should be in an acceptable/mergeable state.
It takes just three steps to get your Litecoin/dogecoin pool ready to support MWEB.
1. Install Litecoin Core 0.21.2 (latest build available)
2. When calling getblocktemplate, add additional rule called "mweb".
> getblocktemplate '{"rules": ["segwit", "mweb"]}'

I have a dream, where both Bitcoin and Litecoin can both coexist. Bitcoin for large payments, and Litecoin for micro transactions.
What do y’all think?
MWEB has released! But the work isn't over...
Our next goal is to bring MWEB to as many litecoin wallets as possible. This requires a design which wallet developers can reference to use MWEB without having to download the entire Litecoin blockchain (~70GB).
We've just hit 100/100LTC donated for February's funding goal on MWEB development.

Very close to finally being able to publicly release LNDltc 0.14.2! Although published, there's no guarantee that everything works - there may be minor releases shortly!
Binaries and docs will be uploaded soon™

95% of Litecoin pools are signalling support for MWEB! It looks like MWEB will be locked in this block period.
The remaining 5% of pools must update ASAP! If mining on these pools, mine elsewhere.
Check if you're on a MWEB signalling pool here:
Reminder: running software for coins forked from Litecoin is a bad idea!
Wallet software likely contains malware & or steals private keys (and steals actual Litecoin). The Litecoin developers recommend that you stay clear of this scam.

For those bad at decentralization 👆, 100x the block space for the same total fees means someone can bloat the blockchain 100x as much as before for the same amount of money. Decentralization is needed to become the currency of Earth.
Awesome
