Litecoin is a peer-to-peer cryptocurrency created by Charlie Lee. It was created based on the Bitcoin protocol but differs in terms of the hashing algorithm used. Litecoin uses the memory intensive Scrypt proof of work mining algorithm. Scrypt allows consumer-grade hardware such as GPU to mine those coins.  Why Litecoin? Litecoin is a cryptocurrency that has evolved from Bitcoin after its own popularity in the industry, this alternative, or ‘altcoin’ has emerged to allow investors to diversify their digital currency package, according to Investopedia. Litecoin is one of the most prominent altcoins and was created by former Google employee and Director of Engineering at Coinbase, Charlie Lee. Litecoin was the first to alter Bitcoin and the most significant difference is that it takes 2.5 minutes for Litecoin to generate a block, or transaction, in comparison to Bitcoin's 10 minutes.  ‘While this matters little to traders, miners who use hardware to run Bitcoin's network cannot switch over to Litecoin. This keeps bigger mining conglomerates away from Litecoin because they cannot easily optimize their profits by swapping to another coin, contributing to a more decentralized experience. Litecoin also has bigger blocks, and more coins in circulation, making it more affordable and swift when transacting,’ Investopedia explained.  As explained above, Litecoin can transact a lot faster than Bitcoin, but there are also a number of other characteristics that investors need to know before trading. Litecoin can handle higher volumes of transactions because of the capability of transacting faster and if Bitcoin attempted to transact on the scale of its altcoin, a code update would be needed. However, Litecoin’s blocks would be larger, but with more ‘orphaned blocks'. The faster block time of litecoin reduces the risk of double spending attacks - this is theoretical in the case of both networks having the same hashing power.  Litecoin Technical Details: The transaction confirmation time taken for Litecoin is about 2.5 minutes on average (as compared to Bitcoin's 10 minutes). The Litecoin network is scheduled to cap at 84 million currency units.   Litecoin has inspired many other popular alternative currencies (eg. Dogecoin) because of its Scrypt hashing algorithm in order to prevent ASIC miners from mining those coins. However it is said that by the end of this year, Scrypt ASIC will enter the mass market.

The shutdown has kept hundreds of federal workers at home, delaying the release of key economic data, which Fed policymakers will likely take into account before their next meeting later this month.According to a Reuters News report, private surveys showed that the number of Americans filing new applications for unemployment benefits rose again last week, likely indicating some early layoffs of contractors related to the U.S. government shutdown.While the Fed minutes from September showed that there was a slim majority in favor of two 25-basis-point cuts in the Federal Open Market Committee’s October and December meetings, they also stated, “Participants stressed the importance of taking a balanced approach in promoting the committee’s employment and inflation goals.” The minutes showed that labor market weakness remained among the top concerns of the central bank.“Probably, the markets are bottoming in the coming 1-2 days, and the fun is back on.

The greenback is experiencing its best week in a year, in part due to a decline in the Japanese yen following the change of reign in Tokyo.Precious metals and cryptocurrencies have benefited over the past week from debasement trade, where investors flee to safe-haven assets amid political instability globally.“Normally, when the dollar rises, gold falls. Now they rise together. Investors are buying both as safe assets. This doesn’t happen often. It can signal stagflation, high inflation, weak growth, and low confidence,” investor Ted Pillows said.Is Bitcoin’s Four-Year Cycle dead?Arthur Hayes, chief investment officer and co-founder of Maelstrom, wrote on Thursday that Bitcoin is unlikely to enter a bear market cycle anytime soon due to favorable monetary conditions, which will put an end to the argument regarding Bitcoin's four-year halving cycle.Hayes said in an essay titled "Long Live the King!" that the primary catalyst behind previous bitcoin bear markets in 2014, 2018, and 2022 was the hawkish monetary policy, not the four-year halving cycle. However, the Fed, alongside other central banks, is likely to increase the supply of money in the near future, which is a positive driver for cryptocurrencies.Citi’s Stablecoin BetSeparately, Citigroup has invested in stablecoin infrastructure company BVNK, according to a CNBC report. While it did not disclose the amount Citi has invested or the valuation BVNK commanded, Chris Harmse, co-founder of BVNK, stated that its valuation is higher than the $750 million publicly disclosed at its last funding round.The bet comes at a time when Citi and its peers are rapidly expanding their presence in the cryptocurrency space amid regulatory backing for digital assets in Washington, D.C.Also See: <a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/delta-air-lines-q3-earnings-preview/ch67iERR30Z">Delta Air Lines Q3 Earnings Preview: Margins In Focus, Analysts Wary Of US Shutdown Impact</a>For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.

Over the past week, both digital assets and precious metals have advanced, driven by the so-called ‘debasement trade,’ where investors flock to alternative investments amid uncertainty over state bonds and currencies.External Fundamentals Still SupportiveMark Moss, Chief Bitcoin strategist at Satsuma Technology, noted that Bitcoin might still have room to run.“Bitcoin is breaking out to new ATHs, and yet it's not looking anywhere near cycle peaks while external fundamentals are looking hot. Unlike 2021, the Fed is not tightening; they are loosening, ETFs and BTCTCs (Bitcoin Treasury Companies) are creating the greatest demand shock, and the world has woken up to the debasement trade,” Moss said.Earlier this week, U.S. Senator Cynthia Lummis said that acquiring funds for the US Strategic Bitcoin Reserve (SBR) can “start anytime” now, signalling continued support at the federal level.Also See: <a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/gold-breaks-4-k-for-first-time-as-political-uncertainty-mounts/ch6Eea5R3L9">Gold Breaks $4K For First Time As Political Uncertainty Mounts: Analyst Sees FOMO Driving Inflows</a>For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.
