As time passes forevermore true retirement, or as we like to call it real freedom will only become much harder and harder for people to attain.  Through meme fueled laser focus and cyperphunk ideology the 401jK meme retirement fund token and community aim to point out the absurdities of how rigged our current system is, and how only insiders and those with power are starting the benefit from the increased centralization of cryptocurrency.........while also aiming to flip the $12 trillion USD 401k system to achieve freedom before our backs and knees are breaking.

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.

Litecoin

Litecoin is trending as the community anticipates a breakout, referencing bullish chart patterns and a potential surge towards $110. Discussions include long-term potential, historical price comparisons, and its role as 'digital silver' in the crypto market, while some traders express frustration with recent price action and volatility.

Is Amcor Stock Underperforming the Dow?

Although Amcor has lagged behind the broader Dow Jones Industrial Average over the past year, Wall Street analysts maintain a cautiously optimistic outlook on the stock.

Shares of Amcor Plc. (AMCR) rose 2.5% in pre-market trading on Monday following a series of Wall Street upgrades tied to its acquisition of U.S.-based Berry Global.&nbsp;The $8.43 billion all-stock deal, announced in early November, creates a packaging powerhouse with combined annual revenues of $24 billion, spanning both consumer and healthcare sectors.Analysts broadly agree that the deal’s synergies, coupled with Amcor’s volume recovery and operational stability, could boost the company’s market presence.Citi upgraded Amcor to ‘Buy’ from ‘Neutral,’ raising its price target to $12 from $11.&nbsp;The brokerage believes the cost synergies from the Berry acquisition will be "relatively easy to achieve."Amcor and Berry make cartons, closures, and containers for the food, beverage, pharmaceutical, medical, home, and personal-care industries. Combined, they will have a footprint in more than 140 countries.Citi also highlighted that the stock is oversold following a December selloff and pointed to the potential for sustained volume recovery in flexible packaging and stability in rigid packaging.&nbsp;Truist also raised its rating on Amcor to ‘Buy’ from ‘Hold,’ lifting its price target to $12 from $10, citing an "attractive setup" following the transformational Berry deal.&nbsp;The brokerage expects packaging volumes to remain challenged in early 2025 due to modest promotional activity but is optimistic about longer-term benefits.&nbsp;According to Stocktwits data, Amcor has seen a 200% increase in message volume over the last year, along with a 12% jump in watchers.&nbsp;The Berry Global deal is by far Amcor's largest acquisition to date. It is expected to close in the middle of 2025.&nbsp;In 2019, it bought U.S. rival Bemis in a $5.25 billion all-stock deal but had to divest three manufacturing facilities to gain approval from the U.S. Justice Department.The bullish calls on Amcor’s future outlook provide some respite for investors, given the stock lost 4.8% of its value last year.&nbsp; For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.Read also: <a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/oklo-nuscale-vistra-constellation-surge-on-clean-hydrogen-tax-credit/cW6UShnRlM">Oklo Powers Ahead As Nuclear Energy Stocks Rally On Clean Hydrogen Tax Credit News: Retail Weighs Risks</a> &nbsp;
