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

Dog (Bitcoin) is a fully decentralized memecoin on the Bitcoin blockchain, backed by a community dedicated to onboarding millions of people to Bitcoin.  Dog is secured by the Bitcoin blockchain and exists on Bitcoin L1, marking a significant innovation compared to Bitcoin with just BTC. Dog is a Bitcoin Runes token with a minimal on-chain footprint, native to Bitcoin, and stored in UTXOs, just like Bitcoin.   What is the project about?  Dog does not do any paid promotion and is fully decentralized just like Bitcoin. Every influencer who chooses to post about Dog either received the airdrop or bought on secondary. Dog leverages the CC0 license to ensure that Dog is not owned by any single entity but rather by everyone. This had lead to the "DOG Army" independently creating art, apps, lotteries, plushies, websites, podcast, magazines, X account, IRL meetups, clothing lines, PFP collections, Telegram groups, and TikTok/Instagram about Dog.  What makes your project unique?  Dog was airdropped in the fairest memecoin launch ever. In early 2024, the Bitcoin Ordinals ecosystem came together in a full volunteer initiative that rewarded early adopters of the Ordinals Protocol. There was no team allocation, and 100% of the supply was airdropped for free. The airdrop algorithm favored neither whales nor influencers; it was determined by the community and made open-source for maximum transparency.

Dog (Bitcoin)

DOG is trending as its dedicated 'DOG Army' passionately advocates for its position as the leading Bitcoin-native memecoin, highlighting its unique permanence and direct link to Bitcoin's infrastructure.

Aurora Innovation, Inc. (AUR) shares slumped 4.5% on Monday, aligning with the broader market decline. The declines came despite the “Aurora Driver” Level 4 self-driving systems provider receiving a bullish recommendation from an analyst.Morgan Stanley analyst Ravi Shanker initiated&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/AUR">Auroro Innovation stock&nbsp;</a>with an ‘Overweight’ rating and a $12 price target, suggesting nearly 73% upside potential from current levels.The analyst said that as trucking finally appears to be on the cusp of an autonomous future, Aurora is leading the charge with the “most sophisticated on-highway Class 8 autonomous solution among peers.”Shanker sees the April rollout of commercial driverless operation as a key milestone for the company and the industry, unlocking a strong runway for earnings growth.&nbsp;The market is only now taking note of Aurora Innovation’s leadership, and has sent the stock up over three times in the last nine months, he added.The analyst said, “This is just the beginning if our view of the opportunity runway ahead materializes.”While&nbsp;Shanker believes the market will likely be divided among several players over time, he&nbsp;noted that Aurora Innovation’s leadership could give it an insurmountable lead over peers.

Its net loss came down to $133.67 million versus $140 million in the second quarter of last year.Total revenue nearly doubled to $31.32 million on a year-over-year (YoY) basis and topped an estimate of $26.20 million. This is the strongest topline recorded by the firm ever, jumping 318% on a quarter-over-quarter (QoQ) basis.Following the announcement, retail sentiment on Stocktwits flipped into the ‘bullish’ territory (67/100) from the ‘bearish’ zone a day ago. The move was supported by ‘extremely high’ message volumes.<figure class="image"><a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/NKLA"><img style="aspect-ratio:1872/530;" src="https://st-everywhere-cms-prod.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/Screenshot_2024_08_09_at_2_33_35_PM_ca5e2bddfe.png" alt="Nikola sentiment meter as of 2:04 p.m. EST on August 09, 2024" width="1872" height="530"></a><figcaption>Nikola sentiment meter as of 2:04 p.m. EST on August 09, 2024</figcaption></figure>The rise in revenue was led by the surge in the number of trucks produced and sold during the quarter. Nikola disclosed that it produced 77 trucks during the quarter, more than double the number in the same period a year ago. The firm shipped 73 trucks versus 43 in Q2 of 2023. The firm also received repeat orders from two national accounts.Interestingly, the company said it created alternative revenue streams from the sale of regulatory credits. “We recognized our first sale agreement of NOx and PM credits in the quarter. We expect this revenue stream to grow as volume increases each model year,” the firm stated.Notably, from its highs in 2020, the stock has lost over 99% of its value. However, at current levels of about $8, retail investors believe there could be attractive upside potential. As one Stocktwits user named “amberajax2point0” points out, the stock should bottom-out given the momentum behind the business.<stembedurl>https://stocktwits.com/amberajax2point0/message/582476407</stembedurl>
