Benzinga – Litecoin (LTC) is a fork of Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) that came into existence in 2011. The cryptocurrency was created by former Google engineer Charlie Lee as an adaption of the apex coin’s source code.
In 2014, Dogecoin (CRYPTO: DOGE), the bellwether meme coin, implemented Auxiliary proof-of-work following Lee’s suggestion. This has allowed the two coins to be merge mined. In a way, Dogecoin is a relative of Litecoin.
