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 crypto market experiences volatility amid discussions of ETF approvals and potential government shutdowns.

4 Reasons to Buy Pharma ETFs Now for a Healthy Portfolio

Pharma's Trump-Pfizer boost sparks momentum, making ETFs PPH, IHE, PJP & XPH attractive for defensive, undervalued growth plays.

A White House official reportedly said on Friday that countries with existing trade agreements with the U.S. would be exempt from the recently announced pharmaceutical tariffs.&nbsp;According to a Reuters report&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.tradingview.com/news/reuters.com,2025:newsml_S0N3U402V:0-latest-drug-tariffs-don-t-apply-to-nations-with-trade-deals-white-house-says/">cited</a> by TradingView, when asked whether pharmaceutical tariffs would apply to trading partners such as the European Union and Japan, which already have trade deals, the official stated that the Trump administration would honor the 15% cap as part of those pacts. Other nations with U.S. trade deals include Vietnam, the U.K., Indonesia, and the Philippines. Major partners like India, Canada, and Mexico have yet to finalize&nbsp;an agreement.The clarification comes after President Donald Trump on Thursday announced a 100% tariff on imported, branded, and patented pharmaceutical drugs starting October 1. In his Truth Social&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/115267512131958759">post</a> announcing the tariffs, Trump only highlighted that an exception would be made for any company that is “IS BUILDING their Pharmaceutical Manufacturing Plant in America.” He explained that “is building” refers to “‘breaking ground’ and/or ‘under construction’.”In a note to investors on Friday morning, Jefferies analyst Akash Tewari described the new pharmaceutical tariffs as "a win for Pharma" and "a light at the end of the Trump tunnel," noting that several large-cap companies have already announced U.S. manufacturing projects. Tewari suggested the tariffs and the MFN pilot program may serve as a symbolic “on paper” win ahead of midterms, with limited material impact on pharmaceutical companies.The 100% tariff is higher than what Trump had indicated in August.&nbsp; He&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/trump-plans-gradual-tariff-hike-on-imported-pharma-to-250-over-18-months-to-boost-us-production/chr1KgrRd2x">stated</a> that tariffs would be increased over time, allowing companies sufficient time to build factories and relocate production. Trump had said he would start by charging a “small tariff” on pharmaceuticals and raise the rate over a year or more to 150% and even 250%.The&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/IHE">iShares U.S. Pharmaceuticals ETF (IHE)</a> edged 1.3% higher in midday trade. On Stocktwits, retail sentiment around the ETF improved to ‘neutral’ from ‘bearish over the past day. Meanwhile, the&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/XLV">Health Care Select Sector SPDR Fund (XLV)</a> rose 0.86% with retail sentiment trending in ‘bullish’ territory as chatter rose to ‘high’ from ‘normal’ levels.Read also:&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/pce-report-core-inflation-holds-steady-at-2-9-in-august/chDViYeR3eE">PCE Report: Core Inflation Holds Steady At 2.9% In August</a>For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.
