Litecoin is one of the core crypto assets, notable as being one of the earliest "altcoins." Altcoins are crypto assets modeled after marquee cryptocurrency with slight changes in how they operate, usually offering various advantages and perks not available with other coins. Litecoin was built as an alternative to Bitcoin, offering lower transaction fees, faster transaction confirmations, and faster mining difficulty retargeting. It is often referred to as the "Silver to Bitcoin's Gold." The Litecoin network launched in 2011 and maintains its place as one of the top altcoins to this day

The reverse depicts a large "L" for the Litecoin logo surrounded by the text "Litecoin", "Digital," "Decentralized," "Peer to Peer," "Bitpay," "Vire In Numeris" along with the LTC ticker along the bottom. The obverse of the coin illustrates mining tools surrounded by a modern line art design to represent a computer chip. Weight and purity are displayed along the bottom.
