The cryptocurrency was built on the Bitcoin (BTC) system, but it is different from Bitcoin (BTC) in a few ways, such as the hard cap, the amount of time it takes to process block transactions, and the hashing algorithm it uses. Litecoin is great for microtransactions and point-of-sale transactions because the block time is only 2.5 minutes and transaction fees are very low.
