More about LTC (Litecoin)
Litecoin is truly the first alt, or altcoin. Its code base was originally forked from the Bitcoin core, in 2011, by a Google employee, Charlie Lee. Lee wanted to develop a faster, lighter weight alternative to Bitcoin, specifically focusing on the long block transaction time (8 minutes for BTC). Litecoin is about 4 times faster than Bitcoin, in terms of block transaction time, at about 2.5 minutes per block.
There are many forks based upon the Litecoin code base, DASH being the most popular by market cap.
