Litecoin: Could 2019 be the end of LTC?
There are a lot of similarities between Bitcoin and Litecoin. Just like bitcoin can half, so can Litecoin. But even though the altcoin is similar to the leading cryptocurrency, it sports a different block hashing algorithm, quicker block times, and a different overall focus as Litecoin has block rewards reductions built in.
You may know that every four years, the amount of LTC issued per block half in an event known as the ‘halving’ or ‘halvening’ - not as daunting as it sounds.
