What is Litecoin (LTC)?
Litecoin est une cryptomonnaie de pair à pair et un projet de logiciel libre publié sous la licence MIT/X11. Le Litecoin a été un des premiers dérivés du Bitcoin ou altcoin, à partir d’octobre 2011. Sur le plan technique, le Litecoin est presque identique au Bitcoin. LTC est le jeton natif de Litecoin. Le réseau Litecoin offre des paiements instantanés, à coût quasi nul, qui peuvent être effectués par des particuliers ou des institutions dans le monde entier. Il utilise l’algorithme de preuve de travail (PoW) afin de sécuriser ses réseaux. Vous pouvez acheter et vendre des LTC en échange de n’importe quelle grande cryptomonnaie, comme BTC, ETH et XRP ou une monnaie traditionnelle comme le dollar canadien, le dollar américain et l’euro. L’échange de cryptomonnaies s’apparente à un échange de devises traditionnelles - vous échangez des LTC contre des BTC de la même manière que vous échangez des CAD contre des USD. Vous pouvez également échanger des LTC contre des CAD en fonction du cours des LTC. Pour savoir comment acheter du Litecoin/LTC, faites défiler la page.
